Occupying a delightfully convenient location in the heart of the sought-after village of Middle Winterslow is The Old Post Office. Dating back to 1901 in its original part, with significant extensions in the early 2000s, this gorgeous home has been comprehensively yet sympathetically updated throughout, creating what is now a stunning, family home that offers an elegant fusion of modern fittings and character features throughout.
The deceptive accommodation is immaculately presented. The expansive ground floor accommodation boasts three generous reception rooms comprising a central sitting/dining room with a feature fireplace with inset log burning stove, a cosy family snug with French doors opening out to the rear garden, and a characterful kitchen/breakfast room with an adjoining ornate, vaulted orangery with French doors opening out to the side garden. The attractive farmhouse style kitchen is fitted with a variety of modern wall and base cabinetry as well as a large peninsula island under swathes of butcher block worksurfaces, along with integrated quality appliances including a range cooker and an AGA (currently disused). There is an adjoining pantry and utilities area. An inner lobby gives way to a spacious study or playroom and the ground floor cloakroom.
The first-floor accommodation straddles the characterful central split landing and boasts four well-balanced double bedrooms. The dual aspect 17” principal bedroom is to the rear and has a modern en-suite shower room. The second bedroom has a generous array of built-in storage and a feature fireplace while the remaining two double bedrooms are both dual aspect. There is a sizeable, stylish family bathroom with both bath and shower.
Outside
The home is positioned to the front of its plot, set behind a pretty walled and wrought ironed fenced frontage. A pedestrian gateway leads to the front entrance porch. There is ample parking at the rear on a gated driveway that in turn gives access to the large, detached double garage.
The beautifully designed and landscaped garden wraps around the home and is predominantly laid to lawn with well stocked floral and herbaceous borders, following the natural contours and undulations of the garden, and a small wildlife pond. There is a choice of seating areas, either next to the home or under a pergola to the rear, the ideal spot to enjoy the afternoon and evening sun. The garden boasts a wonderful degree of privacy, set behind established hedged and fenced boundaries. There is useful timber storage shed.
