BARTON MILLS Believed to date back to the 15th century, this distinguished property is reputed to have been the former home of Sir Henry Barton, Lord Mayor of London. Rich in character, it has been thoughtfully enhanced with sympathetic improvements, including an oak-framed conservatory, four bedrooms, and a generous driveway with ample parking. The mature gardens are arranged into distinct areas, featuring a main lawn, secluded "Secret Garden," children's play area, and wildlife-rich river frontage. More recently, the timber framing to the side and rear has undergone careful restoration, with remedial works and the application of traditional lime plaster, preserving both the integrity and timeless charm of this exceptional home. 

STEP INSIDE This distinctive home is full of charm, character, and period detail, offering an abundance of versatile living space. From the first step into the entrance hall, you are welcomed by a sense of craftsmanship and history. The ground floor unfolds into a wonderful mix of formal and informal rooms, including a bright conservatory with a vaulted ceiling and French doors opening to the garden, a beautifully appointed kitchen with bespoke hand-made cabinetry, central island, and exposed ceiling beam, and a choice of reception spaces to suit every occasion. The snug and living room provide cosy, inviting settings with a fireplace in each. There is a rear office with a small historic door out onto the patio and an extra reception room off the kitchen currently used as an office that could become an idea dining room for entertaining and family gatherings. Practical features such as a utility room, cloakroom, and well-planned storage make the layout both functional and convenient.
The first floor continues to impress, with a generous principal bedroom featuring a connecting dressing room. There is a recently fitted stylish bathroom to serve the remaining bedroom on this floor, while the property includes further ground-floor bedrooms and a second bathroom, offering superb flexibility for guests, extended family, or multi-generational living. Altogether, this is a unique and versatile home that seamlessly blends traditional character with modern practicality, creating a truly special living environment for both family life and entertaining.
