DESCRIPTIONWe understand that the original mill building dates back to the 17th Century, although theproperty was largely remodelled and converted during the 1940s to a private dwelling. Thisimposing property presents elevations principally of stone beneath a slate roof, with stonesegmental archways over the window reveals.  There is a large later extension at ground floorlevel providing a castellated balcony/sun deck to the first floor, which can be accessed from themain reception rooms, and makes an ideal area to enjoy Al Fresco dining in the summer. Thegenerous accommodation is versatile, and considered suitable for single or dual family occupancyor for home/ income use. Adjacent to the main building, there is a detached two-storey barnconversion, known as Berry Mill Cottage, which presents similar elevations to the main house butwith new double glazed windows. The barn would be ideal to accommodate relatives but hasbeen rented out by the current owners on a self-catering basis. In a letter issued by the localplanning authorities in January 2012, it has been confirmed that the current planning use class ofthis property is C3 as a dwelling house with no occupancy restrictions and therefore could be soldoff separately if required. Both properties have been the subject of extensive improvements overthe last year or so and are well presented.

The agents would like to draw attention to the fact that the property is approached via adriveway, which is initially shared with the adjoining property, namely Mill Park Touring CaravanPark, which is owned by a separate proprietor.  However, a private drive leads off the initiallyshared drive and the caravan park is well screened from the property, being totally separate fromthe grounds being offered for sale.The layout of the accommodation with approximate dimensions is more clearly identified on theaccompanying floorplan, but comprises;
