OPEN DAY 20th JULY! As the name suggests Windmill House once formed part of the important relationship between farmer and miller in the ancient village of Bolney. An early Victorian smock mill stood to the front of the site adjacent to the miller’s house. Now with the mill long gone the original dwelling has been embellished and extended over the last Century to offer a very attractive white washed detached house. The plot is large and enjoys much seclusion with a separate paddock to the south extending the overall holding to 1.3 acres. The house probably dates from 1850 with later additions and alterations. Approached from Top Street, across its own private tarmac driveway, there is ample parking and turning in front of the detached double garage. A former pig sty of brick and tile sits to the right providing excellent log or other storage. A path leads to the north elevation and main entrance door with hall and intriguing mosaic floor. There is a large ground floor fourth bedroom which has doubled over the years as an artist’s studio. The principal accommodation comprises, kitchen breakfast room, dining room, large wrap around main living room and a useful ground floor bathroom. Upstairs there are 3 double bedrooms and a further bathroom. The gardens drop away to a lower lawns, crossing the village rivulet, with a paved pathway passing the mature weeping willow and pond, leading up to a gate onto Cherry Lane. The property requires some modernisation but offers the buyer a unique opportunity to acquire a handsome period house in the centre of the village within private and secluded grounds of over an acre. Please note that a public footpath runs through of the paddock.
Occupying a slightly elevated position along this quiet lane at the top of the village with views to adjacent woodland the house is within walking distance of the 2 village pub restaurants, the community hall and recreation ground, stunning church and primary school. Bolney Estate vineyard shop and cafe is about a 20 minute walk whilst there are numerous local walks across the beautiful Bolney countryside. The local fuel filling station is within walking distance where everyday shopping facilities can be found. The A23 London to Brighton road is only a minutes drive with easy access to Gatwick airport and the M25. The local town of Haywards Heath is 10 minutes away with a mainline railway station offering fast regular services into London Bridge and Victoria, plus the Thames Link service into St Pancras for EuroStar.
