Summary - CROSS HOUSE NORTH STREET MILBORNE PORT SHERBORNE DT9 5ET
9 bed 4 bath Detached
Spacious period home with walled garden and separate top-floor accommodation potential.
Grade II listed 18th-century limestone house with strong period features
Cross House is an impressive Grade II listed limestone family house dating from the 18th century, set behind wrought iron railings in the heart of Milborne Port. The house retains many original features — tall wide sash windows, stained glass, moulded joinery, open fireplaces and high ceilings — giving authentic period character throughout generous rooms. The large, walled garden and double garage provide privacy and practical outdoor space for family life or entertaining.
The house offers substantial accommodation across three principal floors: multiple reception rooms, a large kitchen/breakfast room with terrace access, and up to nine bedrooms including a principal suite with roof terrace and dressing room. The top floor was previously used as a self-contained flat and could still function as separate accommodation for a relative or as rental income, subject to listed-building constraints.
Important practical points: Cross House is listed, so alterations will be controlled and can be complex and costly. The solid limestone walls appear uninsulated and glazing is secondary only; heating is primarily electric with a boiler and radiators, which may mean higher running costs and scope for upgrading. Council tax is described as expensive. Overall, this is a rare, well-preserved period house with large grounds that rewards sensitive owners prepared to work within listed-building requirements.
