The Water Mill has been beautifully restored internally and maintains its wonderful period charm; however, in its current usage as a holiday home, the outside has been slightly neglected. It would benefit from gentle TLC, for example re-painting of shutters, a decorative banister along the front bridge of the property, some additional plantings and perhaps a few pretty window boxes.


However, the property has been sensibly priced to reflect this and as such, would make a great investment.


The filling of the Water Mill’s canal is relatively simple and could be fully explained to a potential purchase
