A four-bedroom link-detached house in the former grounds of a historic mill has come up for sale in Saham Toney, near Watton, at a guide price of £550,000.

Named ‘Hideaway’ due to its setting down a private shared driveway, the property sits adjacent to Saham Mill, which was built in the late-1700s and converted to residential use in 1948. At one time, the mill was owned by the Twining family.

According to selling agents William H Brown, Hideaway is “presented in excellent order throughout” and provides “a perfect home for family living”.​
