Description

Nestled in a picturesque and tranquil setting, this former Post Office presents a unique opportunity for renovation enthusiasts or investors. The three double-bedroom detached cottage is set on approximately 1.25 acres, boasting stunning views over the surrounding fields and woodlands. While the property requires updating and modernising to reach its full potential, it already features a substantial range of outbuildings that could be repurposed for various uses such as additional living spaces, hobbies, or storage. The ample parking space and landscaped gardens further complement the site, including a paddock area that offers diverse possibilities. The interior includes an entrance hall/office leading to a cozy living room with a welcoming stone fireplace and original parquet flooring that adds character. The kitchen, although dated, provides a charming layout with scenic views from its window. Other spaces include a sunroom providing an ideal spot to enjoy the serene backdrop, along with three generously sized bedrooms upstairs featuring lovely countryside outlooks. This property’s extensive grounds contain mature gardens, multiple outbuildings like garages and barns with potential for redevelopment (subject to planning permissions), making it an excellent canvas for those looking to create their ideal home or investment project in the South West region.
