The Property
Millfield is believed to date back to 1870 and is constructed of clay lump upon a brick plinth with a slate roof above. The house has many features associated with properties constructed in the mid-Victorian era including exceptionally high ceilings, original wooden floorboards, well proportioned rooms and large windows with shutters. The current owners acquired the property in 1993 and since then it has been a lovely family home with plenty of room to sprawl and grow.
Once you step through the front door of Millfield House you are welcomed into the grand reception hall where period features are in abundance including original floorboards, picture rails and a stunning staircase which rises to the first floor. On the ground floor are three large reception rooms, of which the sitting room faces south with lovely views over the gardens. The third reception is used as a home office/study which has a fireplace and built in bookshelves to either recess. The breakfast kitchen is quaint but very cosy with hand painted shaker style units, pamment tiles and a gas fired Aga. Adjacent to the kitchen in a single storey extension which is a store room, pantry and shower room. To the east side of the house is a utility room and rear lobby with access into the courtyard.
The sweeping staircase leads up to the first floor landing which extends from the front of the house, down the middle, to the rear. All of the four bedrooms are well proportioned doubles with the largest bedroom benefiting from a dressing room/nursery. The family bathroom comprises a two piece suite with a separate WC located beside. By heading back onto the landing you will find a well hidden airing cupboard and a hatch to the loft space above.
The Coach House
Located to the side of the house is a detached former coach house which has recently been converted. The accommodation briefly comprises: hallway, bedroom with French windows to the garden, bathroom & kitchen/living area, with south facing picture windows. The coach house is currently let on an assured shorthold tenancy achieving £435 per calendar month. Potential purchasers may wish to purchase Millfield House independently from The Coach House for £450,000 with an option to buy The Coach House at any time within the next 10 years (index linked) for £85,000. For further details, please contact us.
Outside
The house has a most pleasant approach with a slightly sloping driveway leading through dual five bar gates and onto the front drive. The front gardens are mainly laid to driveway, providing large amounts of parking in front of the house and to the side also. By following the driveway around to the left hand side of the house you will find the detached coach house and rear gardens. In between the main house and coach house is a spacious courtyard with a couple of useful outside stores and an external wc. Beyond the courtyard is the large formal garden which is predominately laid to lawn. To the boundaries are a number of mature hedges, shrubs and trees which offer seclusion and privacy from town centre living, even though most would think the gardens are set in rural countryside. The garden has a number of bespoke flower beds, a wild flower lawn and a timber cabin, perfect for those with hobbies or in need of a workshop. Furthermore, a timber pergola has been crafted which is covered with roses, clematis and honeysuckle all climbing around the joists. In all, the plot equates to 0.62 acres (sts), which is extremely rare for a town centre property of this caliber.
