The Old Post Office is an attractive period property that dates back to the 17th Century with significant later additions during the 19th Century. A wonderful family home with versatile and bright accommodation arranged over three floors. Ideally located for commuting to London & Cambridge with excellent schooling options in the surrounding area.

The original building is oak framed set on a brick plinth under a pitched and tiled roof with three attractive dormer windows. Internally there are a considerable number of well-proportioned high ceilinged rooms, some exposing the original timbers. The Victorian wing is rendered softwood on a brick plinth, the rear extensions of brick and of rendered blockwork. Of particular note is the impressive tower staircase that is mentioned in the listing. The property lies within a Conservation Area and an Area of Architectural Significance. There has been a successful marriage between the original character features of the home and the more modern day fittings with contemporary styling.

The re-organisation of the ground floor lay-out to the rear of the house, including the additional glazed walk-through link between the dining room and the wonderful kitchen-breakfast room and utility area, has been a tremendous success. There is excellent entertaining space, a practical flow to the ground floor lay-out that is essential for family home. The two French doors and back door give great flexibility to access the garden.
The accommodation in brief incorporates: reception hall, cloakroom, sitting room, drawing room opening to the dining room. A home office and bespoke kitchen-breakfast room. The accommodation to the ground floor is completed by a utility
room and boot room.

To the first floor are three double bedrooms and a family bathroom. There is an ancillary sitting room/guest bedroom with en-suite bathroom, a fifth double bedroom and a kitchen accessed from the boot room at the rear of the property. (This section of the first floor accommodation with its independent staircase can be separated from the main house and be utilised as either a one or two bedroom annexe/apartment). To the second floor is a charming guest bedroom with en-suite bathroom. The property is well supplied with quality cupboard storage space.

The Old Post Office is set back from the road with a low maintenance front lawn behind an attractive Yew hedge and a pathway leading to the front door. There is a driveway to the side of the property that leads to the garage and private
courtyard. The majority of the garden is laid to lawn and enjoys a good degree of privacy and seclusion and with a westerly aspect to the church and period properties beyond. A gate at the back of the garden accesses a pond area and network of wonderful footpaths and bridleways, in expansive wooded and elevated country.
