ONE OF DORKING’S MOST IMPORTANT HISTORIC BUILDINGS IN A DESIGNATED AREA OF OUTSTANDING NATURAL BEAUTY.... Castle Mill is an historic Grade II listed building situated within a Designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty to the east of Dorking close by to the River Mole, surrounded by National Trust land with Box Hill just to the north. The existing mill dates according to records to the early part of the 19th Century, although historic records reveal that there has been a mill standing on this site since around the Norman invasion having been referenced in the Domesday book in 1086 and for several centuries part of the Betchworth Castle estate. The accommodation, which as the floor plan shows is both spacious and highly versatile by virtue of the fact that the living space is arranged over four floors. Overall, the property is presented superbly with the majority of the rooms, enjoying the wonderful outlook over the grounds and beyond towards Box Hill. The workings of the mill are shown to great effect within the ground floor reception hall and throughout this charming historic period home, there are evident many fine character features. The grounds compliment the property beautifully extending almost exclusively to the rear. There is a raised terrace which sits next to the mill wheel and race and enjoys wonderful views over the gardens mill pond and further afield to the River Mole. The gardens have been meticulously maintained and are well planted with a variety of shrubs and well-stocked borders. Immediately to the front there is a parking area and a detached double garage. Please note that there is a public foot path that passes through part of the property.
