7 Cross End is a Grade II listed cottage set within 2.5 acres, combining period character with the opportunity to create a substantial contemporary home. Planning permission has been granted to convert the adjoining barns, increasing the accommodation to 2,797 sqft, while the existing equestrian facilities and mature orchard enhance its countryside setting.
