Property description
Listed Grade II* and part Grade II being of architectural and historic importance, the Mill House has undergone an extensive and exacting refurbishment. Dating from the late 18th and early 19th century the house is predominantly constructed of mellow red brick and part stuccoed under a clay tile and slate roof. The elegant front elevation overlooks the eastern terrace, the mill pond and parkland beyond.
Internally, the house combines light and spacious accommodation with comfortable bedrooms on the first and second floors. The restoration has successfully merged the traditional workings of the old mill with today’s modern living requirements, best illustrated by the magnificent working kitchen with twin islands, comfortable timbered sitting area and triple aspect dining space. Likewise, the principal bedroom suite is beautifully appointed; part timbered with views over the millstream and millpond, including a sitting area, contemporary bathroom and well fitted twin dressing rooms.
Old Stables
Lying to the north of the house is the granary, constructed of brick and part stuccoed under a slate roof. This would make ideal accommodation subject to the necessary
consents.
Garaging
Forming a partial courtyard are two open fronted garages and further closed garage. Beyond is a separate large, converted barn providing garaging for an additional three vehicles.
The Cottage
Constructed on brick footings and part weatherboarded under a clay tile roof, the cottage has been recently built to provide single storey accommodation with open plan kitchen/dining/sitting room, two bedroom suites, utility room, and cloakroom. There is a separate open fronted cart lodge and garden.
Offices
Beautifully constructed from a traditional Essex barn, built on brick footings and partially weatherboarded under a clay tile roof. The offices are two storey and comprise about 1,511 sq ft with two WCs and a kitchen area.
Modern Barn
Constructed of breeze block, part weatherboarded under a shallow pitched roof, the barn provides a gross internal area of approximately 2,860 sq ft including a secure storage area.
Old Stables and Tractor Store
Two further traditional farm buildings both lying on the edge of the courtyard and requiring modernisation.
Gardens and grounds
The gardens and grounds are a principal feature of The Mill House with the River Chelmer being the focal point. To the west are the formal gardens, surrounded by a mellow red brick wall providing shelter to the well tended lawns and stocked herbaceous borders. To the east is the mill pond with an attractive ornamental lily pond and weir water fall, adjoining mature parkland. Approached from the dining area is the west terrace surrounded by a low protective wall, which is ideal for alfresco dining overlooking the mill race.
The Land
Approaching over a tarmac driveway which runs through the rolling pastureland and alongside mature woodland the house is reached having passed over the River Chelmer and the mill race
Situated on the outskirts of Hartford End, the Mill House is surrounded by well maintained agricultural land and lies between the villages of Ford End and Littley Green. There is nearby access to miles of footpaths and bridleways whilst the house itself straddles the picturesque River Chelmer, a haven for wildlife.
Felsted village about 2.4 miles distant and the market town of Great Dunmow about 7 miles away both of which offer good local amenities. The county town of Chelmsford has a more comprehensive range of shopping and leisure facilities.
Fast and frequent trains leave Chelmsford station reaching London Liverpool Street in 39 minutes. Access to the M11 is just 13 miles to the west and Stansted Airport is 12 miles away. There is an excellent selection of both state and private schools in the district with a primary and pre-school at Felsted together with the renowned Felsted School for boys and girls from 4-18.
