ARE you looking for a stylish home with spectacular views across the South Downs?
The Mill House in Clayton, on sale for £3 million, brings together a Grade II listed 19th century windmill and attached roundhouse, a converted granary and a beautifully designed 20th century mill house, all in one and a half acre grounds.
Originally built for golf writer and broadcaster Henry Longhurst in 1963, the seven-bedroom property was designed by Brighton Marina architect Peter Farley in a modernist style.
The property includes the remaining roundhouse of Duncton Mill, built in 1765, and one of the Clayton windmills, known as Jack and Jill.
The Jack windmill, which sits behind the main house, is a five-storey tower mill, built in 1866.
The white Jill windmill, which is still a working mill, is just north of the site.
Inside the mill house is bright and spacious with a stunning living area that looks out across the South Downs, complete with a suspended log burner.
Outside the open-plan kitchen, a large terrace leads down to the garden, a walled-courtyard and the granary – a versatile open space which includes an entertainment room.
A tunnel, currently used as a wine store, leads underground to the Jack windmill. The garden has a stone-walled dining area, a pizza oven and an orchard.
