Originally a sawmill for the Monks of Maugersbury, Millway Tower dates back to 1307 and has been extended and converted by the present owner to provide a unique property in one of the most sought-after areas of the Cotswolds less than a mile from Stow-on-the Wold.
The restoration was extremely sympathetic to the original building which features hand-finished Cotswold stonework and curved joinery and limestone floors.
Accommodation in total comprises: open plan sitting room, kitchen, master bedroom and bathroom and three further double bedrooms, a bathroom and two wet rooms, plus a study and an integrated garage. Fixtures and fittings are contemporary but the materials remain all traditional.

The property is surrounded by landscaped gardens and stone terraces bordered by planting, providing privacy for the owners. The house comes with around 1.8 acres of grounds. Also available is a building plot of 3.3 acres - this and the house are available together or as two separate plots.
Millway Tower is located in a rural spot between Upper Oddington and Stow-on-the-Wold in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and four miles from Moreton-in-Marsh. Both Stow and Morton-in-Marsh have excellent amenities and the area is known for its good local schools.
The guide price is £1.95m. For further information please contact Knight Frank on 01865 790 077 or visit www.knightfrank.co.uk.
