Built in the mid-17th century, this stunning property has that all-important kerb appeal and fabulous interior to match. Stone built, under a Collyweston roof, The Old Post Office is Grade II Listed and has beautiful private south-facing gardens that have been lovingly tended over the years. There is a stone walled sunken terrace for outside dining that has a Mediterranean feel, with sleeper steps and a winding gravel path up to a shaped lawn. This continues to a greenhouse and onto a further feature circular patio area. There are fantastic views of the surrounding rooftops and chimneys and impressive trees to be had.
Internally, the property has been beautifully styled and retains an abundance of character elements blended with the current owners' tasteful touches, painted in heritage colours. The living room, originally the main post office, has a large, mullioned window with lovely views over similar properties, an exposed stone wall, window seats and a wood-burner in the Inglenook fireplace with a fabulous oak beam over. The family room has exposed wooden floorboards, two windows and a built-in cupboard.
The kitchen dining room has a stable door and windows to both aspects. A quarry tiled floor is the backdrop to the coloured kitchen base units with oak worktop and upstands. There is plenty of room for a large family dining table and for entertaining.
Additional benefits to this wonderful home are the downstairs cloakroom and that all-important utility room, freeing up the kitchen.
There are three double-sized bedrooms off the spacious and characterful landing, one of which leads to a fourth bedroom, which is currently used as a studio, being a light and airy room, perfect as a hobby room or a nursery bedroom. The large, four-piece bathroom has a corner shower cubicle and a clawfoot bath, and enjoys a deep windowsill, ceiling beam and tiling to half-height.
As well as amazing gardens, The Old Post Office has a driveway for two cars in front of the double garage. Attached to the rear of the cottage is a boiler cupboard and a storage cupboard.
Set in the beautiful conservation village of Apethorpe, amongst other character properties, with a view down to the church. Apethorpe is well-positioned for the market town of Oundle, just 6 miles away, and Wansford, also 6 miles away, with easy access to the A1, Stamford and Peterborough.
With no compromise on ceiling-height and natural light, an internal viewing of this lovely home is highly recommended and has the added benefit of no forward chain.
