Full Details for 2 Bedroom Detached for sale in Shepton Mallet, BA4 :
A detached former studio offering the potential to extend and improve to create a stunning home set in about 9 1/2 acres of woodland with former mill ponds and streams.
Having been built by the current owners as a studio for The Old Mill, The Old Mill Studio now provides the opportunity to create a truly unique home in an idyllic wooded setting of about 9 1/2 acres. The site occupied by The Studio was formerly the site of the original mill building and many of the mill workings remain in place, including the mill ponds and leats and the steel work for the mill wheel (which has now been replaced).
The current accommodation primarily occupies the upper floor of the building and comprises a super, light open plan living space with a kitchen area at the far end and a central sitting area, with a large fireplace and wood burning stove. There is also a well fitted bathroom and utility room. An open staircase rises to the first floor galleried landing. To one end of the landing is a double bedroom with sliding doors looking out over the mill pond. At the far end is an open space that has been used as a bedroom, but could make a great place to work from. Again there are sliding doors that open onto the rear of the property. From the kitchen a door leads to a wonderful sun terrace to the side of the house.
On the ground floor, and currently not linked to the main residence, is a self contained annexe space that comprises a single room, with a fitted kitchen area, and a shower room. To the side of this, and linked by a door but also accessed from large sliding doors to the front, is a large open workshop/garage area. Subject to gaining any of the relevant consents, this floor could be incorporated into the upper floor to create a large single dwelling, or the annexe could be extended to provide accommodation for a dependent relative.
To the side of The Old Mill Studio is a detached single storey building that has been used as office space and has been fitted with power and light and a water supply plumbed in. Again, subject to the relevant consents being granted, this building could be put to a wide number of uses.
OUTSIDE The Old Mill Studio is approached over a driveway which winds from the lane, through the first part of the woodland and past the workshops. The drive then rises to the house and onto a large parking and turning area with space for several vehicles.
Beyond the house lies the woodland which extends to about 9 1/2 acres in total. It comprises mainly mature mixed deciduous trees, with some conifers too. A series of paths wind through the wood, along side the mill ponds and stream with the land rising towards the northern boundary, a little steeply in places. A real haven for local wildlife and flora, the wood is a wonderful space and even has the odd rope swing too.
* Guide Price: An indication of the seller's current minimum acceptable price at auction. The guide price or range of guide prices is given to assist consumers in deciding whether or not to pursue a purchase. It is usual, but not always the case, that a provisional reserve range is agreed between the seller and the auctioneer at the start of marketing. As the reserve is not fixed at this stage and can be adjusted by the seller at any time up to the day of the auction in the light of interest shown during the marketing period, a guide price is issued. This guide price can be shown in the form of a minimum and maximum price range within which an acceptable sale price (reserve) would fall, or as a single price figure within 10% of which the minimum acceptable price (reserve) would fall. A guide price is different to a reserve price (see separate definition). Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.
Reserve Price: the seller's minimum acceptable price at auction and the figure below which the auctioneer cannot sell. The reserve price is not disclosed and remains confidential between the seller and the auctioneer. Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.
