This distinctive five-bedroom detached thatched house presents a unique investment opportunity set within approximately 3.97 acres of varied land, including garden, paddock, and woodland. Among its standout features are a spring-fed lake with potential for wild swimming and a natural water supply, complemented by numerous mature trees, such as striking weeping willows. The property is in need of substantial renovation but offers immense potential for creative enhancements.
Mill House's interior boasts charming characteristics with exposed beams and ample natural light from its large picture windows. The ground floor is well-suited to both family life and entertaining, featuring a spacious dual-aspect lounge and two further generous reception rooms alongside a kitchen equipped with a pantry. The upper level hosts five bedrooms, including a particularly spacious principal suite, along with two family bathrooms, all benefiting from picturesque views of the gardens and surrounding countryside.
Various improvements have already been made by the current owners; these include recent thatch maintenance (re-ridged and re-thatched porch), repairs to both chimneys in compliance with current regulations, installation of a new wood burner and boiler flue, as well as the addition of an environmentally compliant sewage treatment plant.
The property also includes significant additional space: a detached triple garage fitted with new electric doors and lighting, alongside a stylish glamping pod equipped with modern utilities for comfortable living. A solar-powered hideaway positioned near the lake offers an inviting retreat or guest accommodation option.
Nestled in the desirable village of Woodborough, the property is close to essential amenities including local schools, shops, eateries, and has convenient transport links. This property not only serves as an ideal full-time residence or weekend getaway but also holds potential for development into creative ventures or additional income streams subject to necessary consents.
