Description
The Old Mill is a unique and charming four double bedroom family home sitting by the babbling Norton Brook on Wellow Lane situated on the outskirts of the picturesque historic village of Norton St. Philip. This tranquil versatile detached property benefits from flexible accommodation and two stunning detached living/working/rental properties within the magical woodland garden setting.
The main house has excellent lateral accommodation set over two floors topped and tailed by a spacious kitchen/breakfast room and a light filled conservatory roofed living room linking through to the cosy sitting room. Upstairs is accessed via two staircases, one from the sitting room and the other in the entrance hall. There is a further reception room giving a modern family each their own space. The first floor comprises four large bedroom suites and a bathroom as well as an ensuite shower room.
The property is surrounded by substantial gardens and approximately 0.8 acres of woodland grounds which are bordered by open countryside and fields. There is ample driveway parking to the front and the main garden is laid to lawn. A woodland pathway leads you to the tree house and the lodge.
The Tree House and The Lodge are two beautifully designed and built separate dwellings which currently provide substantial income as holiday lets. These are both incredibly versatile spaces that would also suit an artist/sculptor or as home offices for couples who work from home but still want to leave the house to “go to work”. The lodge has its own kitchenette and food preparation area as well as bathroom and has exposed wood floors. The treehouse has a social outdoor kitchen and meeting area underneath the tree and a rising wood stair takes you to the bedroom with ensuite shower room. Both are only a stone’s throw from the main house.
Situation
The medieval village of Norton St. Philip is located approximately 7 miles south of the City of Bath, with the villages of Freshford, Wellow and Hinton Charterhouse not far away. Set in scenery of rolling green Somerset hills with three Churches, a village Green, a preschool and pre-prep, village hall, and two excellent pubs (‘The George Inn’ and ‘The Fleur de Lys’). The George in particular has a deep history dating back to the 14th Century. For explorers the National Trust Village of Lacock and the historic town of Bradford-on-Avon are a short drive away and a visit to the nearby Longleat House, one of the most magnificent stately homes and gardens in Britain together with its safari park, is not to be missed. Babington House is also only a 15 minute drive away. The local countryside is intersected by footpaths and bridleways which are great for walks and discovering local wildlife.
Access to London is via the A36 and A303, or by train from Westbury (from 80 minutes) or Bath Spa station (from 85 minutes). Local attractions include Longleat, Babington House and Stourhead Gardens.
