Fully renovated period cottage with outbuildings in a picturesque rural village. There is also opportunity to acquire a 6.5 acre field upon separate negotiation.
Green Cross Cottage is a period two-bedroom cottage, ideally situated on a quiet rural lane on the edge of Churt village. The property also has the benefit of several outbuildings including a large attached Dutch barn, separate to the cottage, which has great potential for conversion subject to the necessary consents.
Originally a shepherd's cottage and believed to date from the 19th century, this characterful property has been extended and sympathetically renovated to a high specification, with new plumbing, boiler, wiring, insulation and a new roof. New wooden framed double-glazed windows have also been installed, with secondary glazing added to the front where the original character windows have been reconditioned.
On the ground floor, beautiful new limestone flooring with underfloor heating flows from the entrance hall through to the kitchen/dining room, boot room and downstairs bathroom. The superb kitchen and dining room features exposed oak timber beams and a new solid wood shaker kitchen cabinetry with quartz worktops, a Lacanche gas range oven and built-in appliances, and has space for a family dining table. Off this space is a cozy dual-aspect sitting room fitted with a new wood burning stove, which is carpeted and also has attractive wood beams. There is also a boot room with external access that has been fitted with handmade fitted storage joinery in a style to match the kitchen. A second bedroom with vaulted ceilings and underfloor heating has been added with access from the entrance hall, and is serviced by a new well-appointed shower room at the rear of the property. On the first floor is the main bedroom and a bathroom with underfloor heating and eaves storage.
Adjacent to the cottage is a small building that has been refurbished and converted into a useful scullery/utility room with built-in storage, wood worktops and a washer/dryer and freezer.

I love this beautifully presented cottage with the versatile Dutch barn being a real highlight.
