Description
Red Cross Cottage is a delightful Grade II–listed, timber-framed house believed to be over 400 years old. Once an inn for the neighbouring Brakspear Brewery Maltings, it blends rich historic charm with a beautifully considered contemporary finish.
Original features and exposed beams run throughout, complemented by light, refined interiors. The spacious double-aspect sitting room offers white-painted beams, a polished oak floor and a roaring log fire. A series of half-level landings creates an inviting flow through the house, leading to a study with herringbone oak flooring, a cloakroom, an elegant dining room with bespoke wine storage, and a well-designed kitchen/breakfast room with handmade units, a claret-red electric AGA and direct access to the courtyard garden.
The four bedrooms, arranged over several levels, are attractively presented and served by two stylish bath/shower rooms and an en-suite cloakroom.
Historically, the former Red Cross Inn served ale beside the malthouse yard for nearly two centuries from 1790. It once formed part of Floyd’s Tenements, whose rents—under the 1589 will of Richard Dunt—supported eight elderly men.
Entered through a private cast-iron gate, the walled garden is beautifully landscaped with a water feature, flowering climbers, wisteria-draped pergolas, clipped box hedging and soft lighting, creating an enchanting setting for evening entertaining.
