A handsome village home with exceptional charm and versatility.
Positioned in the delightful village of Lower Boddington, The Old Post Office is a wonderfully atmospheric period home, that effortlessly blends history, character and contemporary comforts. Believed to date back to the early 1800's, this charming home has been lovingly and sympathetically improved by the current owners resulting in a home radiating warmth and style.
The ground floor offers a notably flexible and generously proportioned layout. The sitting room is light and elegant with exposed beams, inglenook and open fireplace, also complemented by the snug which benefits from a log burning stove. The kitchen/ breakfast room forms the convivial hub of the home, with its traditional country feel, electric Aga, parquet flooring and charming French doors leading out to the gravelled patio area. Adjacent is the utility/ boot room and larder and the property also benefits from versatile studio/ office space, delightful garden room/ conservatory and a downstairs WC.
Upstairs, the property spans five generous bedrooms arranged over two floors. The principal bedroom features an en suite bathroom, whilst a second en suite shower room supports the bedroom on the second floor. The remaining bedrooms are facilitated by a modern and well-appointed family bathroom. Each bedroom offers its own charm, with varying outlooks and peaceful ambiance.
A particularly attractive feature is the self-contained annexe which was recently converted from a garage. Complete with a fully fitted kitchen, and currently being used as another office space, this versatile space also offers further potential whether as guest suite, holiday let, studio or even multi-generational living (subject to relevant consents).
Outside, the garden is beautifully established. A profusion of flower beds, planters, wisteria, mature trees and fruit trees surround the lawn, while a gravelled patio area provides a perfect setting for alfresco dining and summer entertaining. In addition, at the end of the garden is a decked seating area allowing you to enjoy this private oasis.
