House on the Itchen with fishing
This country house forms a quirky part of a listed period mil house in Twyford, on the banks of the River Itchen, and comes with shared fishing rights
This attractive Hampshire period property forms part of a Grade II listed mill which was converted in 1998 into four separate houses. With exposed beams, brick walls and original mill machinery, the house has lots of period charm.
The vaulted entrance hall and two galleried landings give an immediate feeling of space, while the open plan drawing room, kitchen/breakfast room and dining room lead through to the wonderful river room, which has great water views. The sitting room has a fireplace and French doors out to the terrace and garden.
Upstairs the principal suite is on the first floor with its very fine dressing room, from where there is access to a lady's bathroom; the gentleman's shower room is accessed from the bedroom itself. The staircase continues on to the second floor where there are two further bedrooms with vaulted ceilings, exposed timbers and a second upstairs bathroom.

On the eastern side of the house is the private garden, reached by private access from outside or the terrace of the house itself - the communal area of garden alongside the River Itchen has fishing rights.
Twyford Village is around three miles south of the popular Cathedral City of Winchester in the Itchen Valley. Trains to London from there run in just under an hour.
The guide price is £795,000. For further information please contact Jackson-Stops & Staff on 01962 844299 or visit www.jackson-stops.co.uk.
