Description

Nestled behind double gates on Marshfield Road, Cross Meadow Cottage offers a unique opportunity for renovation enthusiasts or investors looking for a project with character. This charming property is set on a generous plot that provides more space than the exterior suggests, making it an inviting canvas for transformation. The long driveway not only provides ample parking but also leads to a detached garage, enhancing the appeal of this secluded abode. Surrounded by well-maintained gardens, including a primary lawn area bordered by a charming stone wall, there's plenty of potential for creating outdoor living spaces. Inside, the cottage greets you with two entrance doors; one leading into a practical utility area and the other into an impressive open plan kitchen and dining space. This room benefits from natural light thanks to a large window overlooking the garden, presenting possibilities for modernisation while maintaining the home's inherent charm. A lean-to adjoining the kitchen offers extra storage options that could be repurposed or expanded upon as needed. The ground floor includes a convenient shower room which allows for straightforward updates without extensive structural work. The living room exudes warmth with its feature brick fireplace and original bread oven—a distinctive nod to the property's heritage—while offering direct access to the outdoors. The upper floor accommodates two well-proportioned bedrooms along with an additional versatile room, currently serving as a passageway but ripe for adaptation as an office or creative space. With some thoughtful renovations, particularly in updating fixtures and enhancing layout functionality, Cross Meadow Cottage can easily be transformed into a truly bespoke home.
