DETAILS DESCRIPTION A simply stunning four bedroom detached stone property that has been recently transformed to an exceptional and contemporary standard yet retains many of its period features. This beautifully appointed former paper mill, dating from the early 18th century, is situated on a wonderful private plot of approximately 1.5 acres, in an idyllic semi-rural setting within the popular village of Churt.

To the ground floor there is an oak framed porch leading into the 16' dining hall that has an open fireplace, oak flooring and an oak staircase to the first floor with glass balustrades. The impressive 18' dual aspect living room again has oak flooring and French doors onto the garden. The 16' Bulthaup kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with an extensive range of contemporary soft-closing units with stone work-surfaces and tiled flooring. There is a two oven AGA and integrated Miele appliances including wine fridge, oven and hob with a Bulthaup extractor over. The family room is off the kitchen and has oak flooring and an open fireplace. There is a further hallway with a second staircase to the first floor, a useful utility and a re-fitted cloakroom with tiled flooring and slate tiles.

To the first floor there is exposed stonework and beams to the landing. The dual aspect master bedroom is served by a dressing room and an en-suite bathroom. The guest bedroom has a wonderful outlook across Barford Pond, built-in wardrobes and a contemporary en-suite shower room with a large walk-in shower, WC, washbasin and exposed stonework. Bedrooms three and four are both good doubles with a wonderful outlook and are served by a 15' 'Jack n Jill' white contemporary bathroom suite. Both rooms have wall to wall fitted wardrobes.

Outside the overall grounds extend to approximately 1.5 acres, set in a beautiful and tranquil semi-rural setting, approached along a bridleway. At the rear of the property sits Barford Pond which feeds the stream that runs the length of the grounds and attracts a variety of wildlife. There is a five bar gate opening onto the gravel driveway that provides parking for several vehicles. The double open-fronted and single lockable garage plus a further workshop/studio provide ample storage. There is a stone terrace adjoining the property with a large level lawn area beyond with well stocked shrub beds.
