Owners Comments - This substantial detached family home has undergone a full renovation in recent years to create a unique period property with a contemporary twist.

The original property (two buildings), dates back to the 1850, and is located on The Green, Wallsend ( Conservation area). The ancient village green (only one in North Tyneside) provides easy access to a variety of amenities that Wallsend has to offer. The property further benefits from the various Wallsend Parks for woodland walks, a café, tennis courts, bowling green and children’s play area. There are two Metro Stations within walking distance of the house, as well as excellent road links to the coast, Newcastle City Centre and the Silverlink Shopping Centre.

We first moved into The Green Conservation area in 1990 having lived overseas for a few years. Our first home Orchard House was a 6 bed detached with half an acre of land and was an ideal place to bring up our family. In that time we took on Dene House (opposite where we lived) and with the help of our Architect converted the building into a 6 bed house and 5 apartments. It was an exciting project and kept us occupied for 6 years. In 2018 we purchased the derelict Cottage and Coal Shed opposite (it had been empty for 25 years) and again engaged our Architects “Ethical Planning” to help us design an exciting home which we could downsize to and still live within the Conservation Area. Ethical Planning were fundamental in working with the Planning Department and navigating us through the many hoops and have featured Cross House Cottage in their current brochure and planning section on their website.

Moving from Orchard house and building Cross House Cottage was exciting and finally in 2021 we moved into our 4 bed, study, 3 bath contemporary home which has spectacular views from the large roof balcony (with glass balustrade) across a forested area. The wildlife in the area is amazing, we are fortunate to see squirrels, birds, hedgehogs, foxes and deer on a regular basis and we have access to the Dene from the back of the property.

Living on The Green for 36 years has been a privilege and the only reason we are leaving (but not moving too far way) is because we must downsize. It is time for someone else to take over the reigns and enjoy the next chapter living in a bespoke home in this much sort after area.
