Lot 1 The Old Post Office
A fine distinctive landmark detached period rural village House providing comfortable family sized accommodation with a cellar, four superbly sized double bedrooms, two bathrooms and six second floor rooms, presently used as loft store areas but providing potential, subject to planning, to create extra accommodation and income. Local sources of potential customers include the wedding venues at PeckfortonCastle, Dorfold Hall as well as Boldsworth Castle which offers an extensive varied season of top attractions.
Externally there is off road parking, an impressive Detached brick-built Barn ( 492 sqft ) ripe for conversion ( subject to any necessary consents ) holding a key to unlock further passive income in terms of bed and breakfast/Airbnb or as an ancillary self-contained unit for a dependant relative or a long-term tenant.
Lovely areas of secluded garden, that are south easterly in orientation comprise a courtyard, terracing and lawns.
The luxurious accommodation over the first two floors is rich in character and due to the unique combination of the residential back section and the optional front commercial lock up shop/ office/cellar element, this rare opportunity is undoubtedly without comparison in the locality.
