Property description
Mill House Farm, as the name suggests, is a former mill house resting on the West Lancashire and Sefton border. Suddell Brook which forms part of the county border meanders pleasantly through the landscaped grounds and once powered its former water wheel. The site has a long history dating back as far as the magna carter in the 13th century, and whilst the original property has long since faded into the history books, the replacement dwelling which stands today still retains much history. The West wing of the house is the original part of the property and over the years the house has been considerably extended to suit the demands of modern day living, and this gracious home has been lovingly finished to provide every amenity a home of this quality deserves. The home’s design harmoniously connects with the rural lifestyle having views from almost every window and affords a fantastic flowing floor plan extending to over 3000 square feet - brief highlights include entrance porch, lounge, dining room, utility room, kitchen, sitting room, lounge, conservatory, five double bedrooms, two en-suites and a family bathroom. Outside there are well established gardens surrounding the house which extend to approximately one acre to include lawned areas, the brook, ample parking and a detached double garage.
