Upper Mill House lies on the outskirts of the very pretty Hampshire village of Monxton. The area offers plenty of recreational facilities ranging from fishing on the nearby chalk streams, golf at Leckford or Winchester, sailing on the south coast to racing at Goodwood or Salisbury. There is also an excellent selection of schools in the area.

What was once a rolling valley has been transformed to a sensational setting predominantly with extensive manicured lawns, paddocks and woodland. The grounds are framed by a range of large mature trees and woodland which gives privacy to the property. The house is approached through double electric gate and a sweeping tree lined gravel driveway leads to the house. There is a large parking area and access to the double garage which has electric doors.

To the rear of the house is a fantastic stone terrace which can be accessed from the principal reception rooms and creates a platform ideally suited for entertaining and from which you can take in the full extent of the views. A tributary from the River Test meanders through the grounds which once served the local mill. There is a hard tennis court tucked away and is bordered by box hedging.
