About this property
Believed to date from the 1860s and once Long Marston’s village Post Office, Fairfax Cottage is a beautifully reimagined four-bedroom detached home, combining period character with an exceptional contemporary finish. Comprehensively renovated inside and out, the property was effectively taken back to brick and transformed with a clear emphasis on quality and craftsmanship. Original oak beams and exposed brickwork sit comfortably alongside sophisticated modern interiors, with attractive countryside views providing the backdrop.
