Description

Post Office Cottage, a charming example of 18th Century architecture enriched by modern extensions, offers significant potential for refurbishment and investment. Previously serving as the Monk Soham Village Post Office, this four-bedroom residence is set within almost an acre of land, providing a serene backdrop with countryside vistas. The property features traditional elements, including wood floors and exposed beams, alongside contemporary amenities in the kitchen and bathrooms. With ample living space, including a dining area that flows into the kitchen, and a spacious utility room that could be transformed into an expansive kitchen area (subject to planning permission), there is great scope to enhance this property further. The tranquil location on a quiet country lane places it equidistant from Debenham and Framlingham, both vibrant market towns known for their independent shops and excellent schools. The cottage's grounds are adorned with mature trees and gardens that invite outdoor living while maintaining privacy. Given the existing period features and modern upgrades, this property represents an exciting opportunity for investors or those looking to create their dream family home with some thoughtful renovations.
