A recently renovated cottage with scope to extend in the heart of a village near Soho Farmhouse.
The Old Post Office is a delightful cottage with a private and enclosed garden which has been recently renovated in the heart of a village.Constructed of stone under a tiled roof, the property is 360 years old and originally the Post Office for the village. The house is not listed and has been sympathetically renovated in recent years, however there is further scope to extend should a buyer be willing.Internally, there is a seamless blend of period features combined with modern appliances such as Nest remote heating controls and integrated Alexa compliant speaker system. On the ground floor there are three main reception rooms with tremendous character and a kitchen/breakfast room that is central to the building. A useful study and decent sized utility room can be found off the entrance hall. Above, the bedroom accommodation is arranged over two floors and comprises four bedrooms with a bath or shower room on each floor. To the rear of the property is a walled garden with a private terrace, separate barbeque area and multipurpose outbuilding with potential to convert into a home office. Otherwise, the garden is mostly laid to lawn with minimal herbaceous borders. There is a further garden with mature trees, plenty of parking and an incredible scope for a garage block, annexe or separate dwelling, subject to the usual planning consent.
