Crossing Gate Cottage is a unique single storey property of character, built party of brick beneath a slate roof with later additions. The property has the benefit of Oil Fired Central Heating, UPVC Double Glazing and is offered to the market with no forward chain. Dating back to 1862, this particularly charming property would suit railway enthusiasts due to the proximity of the railway line, which is also equally suitable for persons seeking a country retreat in a convenient location.

There is a footpath across the railway line with opportunities for walks along the banks of the River Severn close at hand.

Approached from the Entrance Sun Room which is UPVC Double Glazed with a quarry tiled floor, the property then has a superb living space with a Sitting Room of good height with a large picture window to the front, which takes full advantage of the surrounding outlook. There is also a woodburning stove and space for dining furniture. There are 2 Bedrooms leading off. The generous Kitchen/Breakfast Room enjoys a similar aspect with views across the Severn Valley and has a range of fitted base units with electric hot plate, integrated oven and useful pantry. The inner vestibule gives access to the Bathroom which has a 3 piece suite together with a fully tiled cubicle and electric shower. To the further side of the property is a Utility Area with plumbing for a washing machine which could be improved to give a Studio or potential 3rd Bedroom subject to obtaining the necessary local authority consents. There is a covered store which houses the central heating boiler and gives a returning access to the front of the property.
