Property description Mill House Farm is a substantial five-bedroom detached home occupying an impressive plot of approximately 0.7 acres (sts), with established gardens, an outdoor swimming pool, hot tub and detached games/cinema room. The property is situated in Langton, on the edge of Thimbleby and close to the market town of Horncastle.

The outside space is a real feature of the property, with extensive gardens providing a variety of lawned, patio and seating areas. The swimming pool and hot tub are positioned within the rear garden, while the detached games/cinema room provides a substantial additional space away from the main house.

The ground floor centres around a large open-plan living room and kitchen/diner, complemented by a separate sitting room and dining room. There are also two generous ground-floor bedrooms, both with en-suite shower rooms, together with a pantry, utility room and boot room. One of the ground-floor bedroom areas also incorporates a fixed staircase to a mezzanine room, further adding to the flexibility of the accommodation.

On the first floor are three further bedrooms, including two particularly generous doubles, together with the family bathroom and useful built-in storage.

In addition to the house and approximately 0.7-acre plot, large agricultural outbuildings, additional land and a Grade II listed windmill requiring renovation are available by separate negotiation.
