Revells Crossing, BH21 - £490,000

Property Description

A wonderful opportunity to purchase “Revells Crossing”, built circa 1880 as a staff crossing lodge serving the Southampton and Dorchester Railway line, signed off by Queen Victoria. The line became unused from 1964 and the crossing gate still remains.

The accommodation retains much of the original character with all main windows facing what would have been the mainline, comprising two double first floor bedrooms served by a Victorian style refitted bathroom on the ground floor, a cottage and space for a range style cooker, a versatile dining/sitting room and separate living room divided by an open front to back chimney with solid wood burner as the central feature.

The front door is redundant as the owner uses the rear access which now has a very convenient lobby/boot room.
