6 bed detached house for sale

Lower Mill Lane, Cullompton EX15

The Express Estate Agency is proud to offer this beautifully presented and charming historic former water mill in the town of Cullompton boasting its own leat and a mill wheel and sluice to control the water flow. The property is non-listed and has been well-maintained and refurbished over the years whilst retaining an abundance of original features, set over four floors briefly including six bedrooms, an open plan living area, double garage, workshop and garden, and there is excellent potential to create self-contained living space (subject to the relevant planning permission). The property is set within a tucked away location just a short distance from the town centre with direct access onto a footpath to the surrounding community fields. This is a very unique property and demands a viewing to fully appreciate.

Internally and to the ground floor an entrance lobby provides access to a cloakroom WC and to a spacious sitting room with a feature recessed closed fireplace with a decorative gate, side aspect windows, carpeted flooring, both wall lights and ceiling spotlights and stairs to the first floor. To the rear is a well-appointed utility room fitted with units and worktops and providing space and plumbing for appliances with a side aspect window and a door to the rear garden. There is potential to convert this space into a second kitchen if desired and subject to the relevant planning permission. On this floor there is also access to the double garage, a workshop, a gym and the open water wheel and leat.

To the first floor the hall has space for use as a study and opens into a stunning 32' open plan living space and kitchen boasting a recently fitted modern kitchen with a breakfast bar and integral high spec appliances, feature mill wheel workings to the centre of the room, dual aspect windows, a set of French doors to the terrace and an attractive spiral spindled staircase to the second floor. There are two bedrooms to this floor each of which are double sized and one of which is the generously sized master suite with dual aspect windows, a walk-in wardrobe and a luxury four-piece en-suite bathroom comprising a WC, wash hand basin set into a vanity unit with a large mirror, a bath with an overhead shower and a separate shower enclosure.

To the second floor the landing gives access to a sauna room, four bedrooms all of which are double sized and one of which has a modern en-suite shower room, and a family shower room suite with an airing cupboard.

To the third floor a spacious landing is currently used as a hobby space with access to a large attic room which offers plenty of space for various uses ideally as a games room, cinema room or additional bedroom, with a window, Velux skylight and ample built-in storage space.

Externally the property is accessed via no-through road terminating at Lower Mill Lane and is shared with only four other properties, with a set of double doors opening onto a private driveway providing off-road parking for two/three cars and providing access to the integral double garage with electric doors. To the rear is a wide terrace and patio running the width of the property and providing plenty of space for outdoor sitting, dining and entertaining with views over the mill leat and access to a lawned garden enclosed with mature hedgerows and wooden fencing. To the first floor there is a garden terrace off the open plan living space offering further outdoor space which catches plenty of sun and has elevated views.

There is also a separate area of land to the side of the property bordering the community fields and accessed via a public footpath which forms part of a copse, and there is excellent potential here for allotments, as an open leisure/equestrian space, or as a nature reserve.

Cullompton is a vibrant town offering a great selection of shops, amenities and facilities as well as both primary and secondary schools and a sports centre. There are excellent transport links with easy access onto the M5 at J28 within a mile providing links to the likes of Exeter, Taunton, Bristol and further afield, and Tiverton Parkway Station is just six miles away with mainline train services to London Paddington.
