Crossgreens Cottage presents an exciting opportunity for buyers seeking a renovation project or potential redevelopment opportunity. Having been stripped back internally, the property provides a blank canvas ready to be transformed into a bespoke family home. There is currently no heating system installed, and whilst mains electricity is connected, it is presently disconnected. Subject to the necessary planning consents, there may also be scope to replace the existing dwelling with a new-build home.

* Please note - This property can not be purchased with a mortgage and will be offered to cash buyers only. *

The current layout provides accommodation including four double bedrooms, with the principal bedroom enjoying lovely views across the surrounding countryside and rolling hills beyond. There is ample space to create a spacious kitchen and dining area, while the family bathroom is of sufficient size to accommodate both a separate bath and shower. A useful utility/laundry room provides additional practicality and leads through to a sunroom extending across approximately half the rear elevation of the property.

The cottage occupies a generous plot extending to just over 1.5 acres, comprising mature woodland and areas of wildflowers that offer both privacy and potential. A gravel driveway leads to the entrance gates and a substantial garage/workshop building featuring three large access doors and electricity, making it ideal for storage, hobbies, vehicle enthusiasts or workshop use.

Further outbuildings are scattered throughout the grounds, including multiple workshops and two additional double garages positioned adjacent to the main house.

The woodland itself is mature and varied, creating a wonderful natural setting. Whilst the grounds would benefit from ongoing management and clearance, they offer considerable potential to create attractive gardens, recreational space, wildlife habitats or a range of other uses, subject to the purchaser’s requirements.
