Description

This historic former village post office, cherished by the same family for over a century, presents a unique opportunity to invest in a spacious family residence with significant potential for renovation and expansion. Set in the scenic Devon countryside and occupying a generous 0.25-acre plot, this property boasts breathtaking views towards Dartmoor National Park. The home features a charming porch that leads into a bright hallway, flowing into a dual-aspect sitting room with an inviting fireplace—ideal for cozy family gatherings. Adjacent to the sitting area is the original dining space of the post office, overlooking the rear garden, perfect for entertaining. The kitchen is equipped with contemporary units and integrated appliances alongside a breakfast bar for casual meals. A utility room adds functional storage and laundry space. On the upper floor, three spacious bedrooms await along with a family bathroom and separate shower room. The principal bedroom offers built-in wardrobes and picturesque garden views, while an expansive loft void above the kitchen, complete with Velux windows and insulation, holds great promise for transforming into additional living space (subject to planning permissions). The property's exterior enhances its appeal with ample parking via a private driveway leading to a double garage. Attached is an intriguing two-storey stone barn ripe for conversion into extra accommodation or an annexe (pending necessary consents). Additionally, there are versatile outbuildings including a detached single-storey barn that could be adapted into a workshop or even converted into holiday let facilities. The well-manicured rear garden provides privacy and tranquility alongside stunning panoramic vistas of the surrounding landscape. For gardening enthusiasts, there's even a sizeable vegetable patch perfect for cultivating produce. This characterful home harmonizes historical allure with practical modern living while offering substantial scope for enhancement—an exceptional prospect for those keen on creating their dream residence in this idyllic rural setting.
