Miladys Forge House is a property full of hidden gems and history - definitely worth a viewing. The entrance hall features a staircase with a hidden surprise; a time capsule, carefully sealed away in a secret cavity beneath the stairs. Original beams feature in every room, adding warmth and character throughout. The house enjoys generous ceiling heights for a property of this age, blending historic charm with everyday practicality.
The ground floor consists of a kitchen/diner with a generous pantry, a dining room and family room divided by a two-sided fireplace, a useful utility room and a WC. Upstairs on the first floor there are two double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a large characterful sitting room with stunning southerly views from windows on three sides of the room. The Gun room, as it’s affectionately known, boasts a truly unique feature; a built-in wooden bar, complete with bar stools and detailed, hand-carved craftsmanship, making it an ideal space for entertaining
On the second floor there are another three bedrooms, one of which is currently being used as a study.
The garden is an absolute delight, offering a serene and well-established outdoor space. Highlights include a summerhouse, a generous raised vegetable bed, a tranquil pond, and an array of mature trees that provide dappled shade - perfect for relaxing or entertaining year-round.
Access to the drive is through wooden gates and a driveway providing space for two cars.
