The Property

The Inner Silk Mill is a substantial Grade II listed building believed to date from the late 1700's. It is situated on the southern edge of the town, immediately adjacent to the river, and is of Cotswold stone construction beneath a slate covered roof. In the early 1980's it was converted into eleven flats and four maisonettes. No 10 is located on the second floor and enjoys views over the adjoining garden.

The Accommodation

Communal entrance door to a lobby with stairs and a lift to the second floor. The private front door leads into a hall with all rooms off. The sitting/dining room has two large windows. Next door the kitchen has been refitted and has space for a breakfast table. There are two double bedrooms. The bathroom has a shower over the bath and a cupboard housing the hot water tank.

Outside

Communal gardens adjoin The Mill with paved seating areas, security lighting and tap for car washing. A short distance away is the residents' car park. No 10 is the only flat that has a dedicated parking space.
