Description
Formerly used as a local post office, this three-bedroom detached property in St Mark's offers an unusual amount of space and scope to adapt. The ground floor has a spacious entrance hall, a reception room of around 30ft, an 18ft kitchen, a 15ft office, an 11ft utility room and a separate WC. The kitchen also provides access to the basement.
Upstairs are a 30ft principal bedroom with en-suite, two further bedrooms and a family bathroom. A loft storage room occupies the second floor and may offer further potential, subject to the necessary consents. The property is described as having more than 3,000 sq. ft. of accommodation. Outside, there is off-street parking and a large private rear garden. Any changes to the layout or conversion of the loft would require planning feasibility and the relevant permissions to be checked.

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
78out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £850,000, this detached former post office is priced at about £233 per sq ft, well below the local average of £508 — a standout opportunity to acquire a substantial property at a low price per square foot. Its 30ft reception room, broad doors to the garden, off-street parking and large private garden give a future family home a strong starting point, while the loft storage space may offer further potential subject to the necessary consents.
The project is substantial rather than cosmetic: most principal rooms look usable, but the basement has extensive staining, damaged finishes and debris, and the kitchen flooring and some wall finishes need attention. The source of the basement staining and the condition of its services are unverified, so investigate these before settling the scope of the work.
Key opportunities
- Create a substantial family home around the impressive 30ft reception room, with broad glazed doors opening onto the garden.
- Use the former post office’s generous footprint and versatile office and utility spaces to shape a layout suited to modern family life.
- Explore the loft storage room’s possible conversion potential, subject to the necessary planning consents.
Key risks
- The basement’s extensive staining, damaged surfaces and debris make this a heavy, multi-stage programme rather than a cosmetic refresh; allow time to investigate the cause and establish the right remedial scope.
- The source of the basement staining and the condition of the services there are not verified.
