Calcot Mill House is a substantial and beautifully arranged adjoined period home dating back to the early 1700s, set in a rare island position beside the Holy Brook. Offering over 3,300 sq ft of accommodation, the property enjoys a uniquely peaceful waterside setting, with attractive views from every window across the river, the gardens, and the parkland beyond. The ground floor provides excellent space for both everyday living and entertaining. A study sits to the front of the house, while the well proportioned sitting room features a wood burner and period details including ceiling coving and an original hallway floor. The large dining room connects naturally with the rest of the house, creating a generous flow of space. The kitchen is fitted with granite worksurfaces and tiled flooring that leads into the wooden floored family area, forming a practical and cohesive layout. A utility room and entrance hall complete the internal arrangement. Upstairs, the principal bedroom includes its own ensuite, as does bedroom two, while two further bedrooms are served by a large family bathroom with both bath and separate shower. An additional first floor office provides further flexibility for home working or storage. The garden and outdoor areas make full use of the property’s riverside setting. You approach the house over a small bridge that crosses the Holy Brook, emphasising its private island character and giving the property a distinctive and memorable entrance. A decked terrace sits directly above the water and features integrated floor lighting, creating a striking area for evening use. A separate patio provides further outdoor seating and leads naturally to the large, flat lawn, which offers a private and open outlook. The property benefits from a double garage, private driveway and additional parking within the development, all set within a quiet and well kept enclave of five homes.
