Sluice Road, Denver, PE38

A beautifully converted and successfully extended, detached period property enjoying a wonderful, elevated plot approaching ½ of an acre (subject to measured survey). ‘Mill View’ has always stood in a prominent position, set back from the Village road, enjoying field views and (as the name suggests) across to Denver Windmill at the side. Over recent years, the property has been totally renovated, reconfigured, and extended to the highest standard, producing the most enviable of family homes. Designed to combine the best of both modern and traditional aspects, one of the most impressive spaces can be found within the open-plan kitchen/dining/family rooms. This area extends to 32ft in length and not only enjoys fabulous levels of kitchen/preparation space (including centre island) but also flows through to a dining area that boast a raised ceiling, floor to ceiling glass, and solid oak beams. Elsewhere, there are then 3 further reception rooms, 2 of which have retained the original fireplaces with them both housing cast iron stoves standing within. There are also the practicalities of a downstairs cloakroom and a separate utility and upstairs, a galleried landing leads through to each of the 4 bedrooms and to the thoughtfully configured and styled, main bathroom. This features both a double width shower and a freestanding, roll-top bath and demonstrates the high level of finish that can be appreciated throughout. The main bedroom appreciates high levels of natural light from its double aspect and benefits from built-in wardrobes and an en-suite.  Outside, there are high levels of privacy throughout and the whole area has had the same levels of thought and care applied throughout a total programme of transformation. Gated to the front, the level of parking is exceptional and is complimented by a newly constructed double garage that measures 20ft in size and benefits from a mechanised double door. The gardens themselves sweep around from front to side and to the rear and provide generous levels of lawns along with lower levels of patio, ideal for everyday enjoyment or for entertaining. This stunning home then has the additional benefit of being positioned within one of the most desirable Villages that boasts so many recreational, practical, and accessible facilities on its doorstep. Viewing should be sought at the earliest opportunity.

Accommodation -

Covered side porch, bespoke, hardwood entrance door with ornate side windows.

Hallway

Extending around to utility and cloakroom areas and accessing a large cloak cupboard (also housing the underfloor heating manifolds). A turning staircase leads upstairs before leading through to:

Kitchen/Dining Room/Family Room

32’8” x 16’0” (9.97m x 4.82m)
A perfectly executed extension has created this wonderful and extensive space that culminates in a dining area surrounded by oak beams and floor to ceiling glass. The kitchen space features integrated appliances and a central island which has gas hob, breakfast bar and extractor inset above. The entire space is filled with natural light and is ideal for food preparation, dining, entertaining and general, day-to-day living.

Office/Snug

13’10” x 13’0” (4.22m x 3.95m)
Leading directly from the kitchen area via part glazed, double opening doors, this atmospheric room could be used as deemed appropriate but currently makes an ideal study space. Elements of its age and character begin to become evident, more so via the exposed fireplace with wood burning stove.

Sitting Room

16’0” x 13’7” (4.83m x 4.15m)
Again, an original reception room, used as a separate sitting room with similar features to the adjoining office. Between these rooms is the main, front entrance door.

Playroom

14’8” x 10’0” (4.47m x 2.98m)
Versatile once more and cleverly accessed via a hidden doorway formed by what at first, appears to be a built-in dresser contained within the sitting room.

Utility

9’0” x 8’1” (2.80m x 2.47m)
Extremely practical with lots of utility room, storage and further space for appliances.

Cloakroom

First Floor Accommodation

Galleried Landing

The hall ceiling rises following the staircase up the first floor. This creates a wonderful, galleried effect, and as the landing progresses, access to each of the rooms can be obtained.

Master Suite

12’9” x 11’5” (3.90mx 3.50m)
As this room is entered, a dressing area has been created with fitted wardrobes to the side. This then opens to the largest bedroom which enjoys a double aspect to the side and rear, featuring panelled walls and herringbone flooring. The en-suite features a walk-in shower, WC and hand basin with vanity/storage cupboard beneath.

Bedroom Two

14’6” x 11’0” (4.41m x 3.32m)
An original bedroom where the fireplace has been retained ornamentally.

Bedroom Three

14’6” x 11’0” (4.41m x 3.32m)
Similarly, the originality is visible via the exposed fireplace.

Bedroom Four

10’10” x 7’0” (3.32m x 2.26m)
Currently configured and used day-to-day as a dressing room.

Bathroom

Traditionally and tastefully created featuring a freestanding, roll-top bath in addition to a double width walk-in shower. A Victorian style wash stand houses a surface mounted sink and panelling to walls features to a lower level.

Outside

A private driveway extends through double opening, electrically operated gates and leads to a large area of front parking. There is a lawn to the front with sweeping pathway extending up to the front entrance door. The front is screened also to the front by a run of maturing hedge. There is a further and larger area of parking to the side and this sits in front of the double, 20ft garage which has motorised roller door, power and light.
Closer to the property is an area of patio which extends to both the rear and both sides.
The remaining gardens are largely laid to lawn and extend around these patios (accessed by brick and flint stairs) and produce a generous area in which to relax, play and enjoy.
