Stunning Grade II listed 18th-century Mill House on 23.74 acres with equestrian facilities, indoor pool, orangery, five bedrooms and riverside grounds, near Newport Pagnell town centre.

An extraordinary Grade II listed 18th-century Mill House of remarkable character and distinction, occupying approximately 23.74 acres of stunning riverside grounds in one of Newport Pagnell’s most prestigious and historic settings. Combining timeless architectural elegance with exceptional equestrian facilities, this rare country estate offers the perfect balance of privacy, lifestyle and convenience, just a short walk from the town centre.

For equestrian enthusiasts, the facilities are exceptional. The estate includes eight level post-and-rail paddocks, each with water supply, together with American-style stabling, additional traditional stables, wash box, tack and rug rooms, groom’s kitchen, machinery and hay storage, horse box garaging, a horse walker and an all-weather manege.

Set behind private gates and approached via a sweeping driveway, the red-brick residence stands proudly beneath a traditional clay tile roof, immediately conveying the grandeur and heritage of this exceptional home. Internally, the property offers beautifully proportioned accommodation with an abundance of natural light, refined period detailing and an effortless flow suited to both family living and formal entertaining.

The principal drawing room is a superb reception space, featuring large sash windows framing picturesque views across the gardens and towards the mill race. Decorative cornicing, an ornate ceiling rose and an impressive open fireplace within a carved surround create a room of warmth and elegance. The formal dining room is equally captivating, with rich dark wood panelling and generous proportions ideal for hosting on a grand scale. A separate study to the front elevation provides an ideal work-from-home environment or private library.

At the heart of the home lies a beautifully appointed kitchen fitted with classic shaker-style cabinetry, a stainless-steel range cooker and integrated appliances, seamlessly connecting to an inviting breakfast room with bespoke banquette seating for relaxed everyday dining. Beyond, the east wing offers additional versatile living space including a cosy snug, office area and practical boot room with garden access.

Two of the home’s most exceptional features are the magnificent orangery and the indoor heated swimming pool. The orangery is a breathtaking entertaining space, flooded with natural light from its glazed roof and panoramic windows, with French doors opening directly onto the terraces and gardens. Adjacent, the indoor pool complex enjoys a conservatory-style roof, triple-aspect views and shower facilities, while a solid floor cover allows the area to transform into a unique entertainment venue when required.

The first floor provides luxurious bedroom accommodation, comprising five beautifully presented bedrooms and five bath/shower rooms. The principal suite is particularly impressive, with extensive fitted wardrobes and a spacious en suite bathroom. Additional bedrooms are generously proportioned, several enjoying en suite facilities, while a further room currently serves as an elegant dressing room.

Outside, the estate is simply enchanting. Manicured lawns, mature specimen trees and colourful herbaceous borders create a peaceful and private setting, with gardens flowing gracefully down to the mill race and river frontage. Expansive terraces provide superb spaces for al fresco dining, while a charming gazebo offers a tranquil retreat within the grounds.
