The Property
Cross Cottage is a detached cottage situated in the heart of the popular market town of Knighton (Tref-Y-Clawdd) found directly on the Welsh/English border within the picturesque Teme Valley.
Improved and lovingly maintained by the current owners over recent years, the accommodation offers period features, spans over 2 stories and is made up on the ground floor of a sitting room with a feature fireplace and stairs rising off to the first floor, a useful utility, a modern shower room, a recently installed kitchen with fitted appliances and a door leading out to the rear garden, as well as a dining room. On the first floor, a small landing area gives way to a W.C and the 3 bedrooms. The property also has the benefit of double glazed windows and a 'Worcester' combi boiler.
Originally built circa 1880 as a railway workers cottage, Cross Cottage is conveniently situated at the end of a 'no through road', approximately 400 yards from the town centre with its many independently owned shops and facilities. Outside the dwelling has a gravelled driveway providing private, off road parking for a vehicle. To the rear of the property is a landscaped, south-west facing garden, which has been terraced into 2 sections. The upper section is laid to lawn, while the lower section is gravelled and paved and poses as the perfect spot to relax/entertain within the warmer months of the year with the neighbouring brook providing a peaceful background noise. A rear door allows easy access straight into the kitchen, while a side gate opens to the roadside. In addition, the rear garden has well-defined fenced borders, mature specimen trees, an outside electricity point and spot lighting.
Overall, Cross Cottage could be an ideal dwelling for a variety of buyer types to include relocating purchasers seeking to be close to shops and the town centre facilities, second home owners or holiday let investors located on the famous Offa's Dyke footpath or even first time buyers looking to make that all important first step onto the property ladder. Either way, you can be sure that whoever the lucky new owners are, would have acquired a truly delightful house.
The Location
Cross Cottage is found approximately 400 yards from the main street, which hosts a variety of local groceries, retail shops and family run businesses. Knighton offers a good amount of facilities and services including a butchers and a supermarket, a bakery, a nursery/primary school, a railway station, a post office, a builders merchants, regular bus routes, a selection of public houses, cafés and restaurants, a leisure centre/swimming pool, a livestock market and a variety of sports clubs including a golf course, rugby club and football club.
The town features a fortnightly 'farmers market' at the local community centre and also benefits from having a thriving artistic community including The Writers Group, a number of painters, art galleries, potters, craftsmen and a light entertainment society. Still a thriving market town spearheaded by local organisations, Knighton is a peaceful town offering breath taking, picturesque scenery and fully accommodates the laid back, relaxed lifestyle that many potential purchasers will be looking for. Described as the ‘The Gateway to Wales’ this market town is situated on the English/Welsh border. Mostly in Powys, partly in Shropshire it lies on the River Teme and is surrounded by hills giving the traveller a glimpse of the more remote areas accessible nearby.
The town's Welsh name is Tref-y-Clawdd meaning “Town on the Dyke”. This is a reference to Offa’s Dyke, which runs through the town, built by the Saxon King of Mercia to define his border with Wales. Every year hundreds of tourists and walkers visit the Dyke (which in its entirety runs from Prestatyn to Chepstow) and the Offa’s Dyke Centre adding a real vibe to the town during the Spring, Summer and Autumn months. While here, other attractions that visitors to the town often call upon is the famous Space Guard Centre, which offers people the chance to view the wonders of the universe in a fun and understandable way while also raising public awareness of the threat of asteroid and comet impacts and the ways in which they can predict and prevent them. Larger towns near to Knighton are the medieval market town of Ludlow, 16 miles East, and the Victorian Spa town Llandrindod Wells, 19 Miles South West. Both are easily accessible via road or rail links and offer further recreational, educational and leisure facilities.
