Description

This stunning detached former mill house is located between the highly sought-after villages of Hinton St George and South Petherton and has recently undergone complete refurbishment. It offers spacious and light accommodation while retaining many original features. The property also includes modern conveniences and benefits from not being listed as a historic building.
