Former village post office converted into cosy 5-bed home
A former post office in North Yorkshire, that has since been converted into a five bedroom home, has just entered the property market at £550,000.
The Old Post Office currently has a contract with Sykes Holiday Cottages and has been extensively modernised whilst retaining many of its period features.
Light streams into the home through four sash windows, which originally made up the frontage of the post office. This creates a bright and airy reception room. From the stonework wall to the timber clad beam ceilings, you immediately get a feel for how the property would have once looked.
The lounge/dining area leads into a spacious kitchen and neighbouring study/home office with underfloor heating.
Also leading off the kitchen, up a small flight of stairs, is an elevated bonus space that could be used as a games room or another living area. There’s also an additional family room/snug located off of the study on the ground floor.
There are five double bedrooms, of which three have their own en-suites.
Outside to the rear, you could easily add a table and chairs to dine al fresco in the warm weather, with the outdoor space currently a blank canvas.
Situated in Ampleforth, a village lying on the southern edge of the North York Moors National Park, the area benefits from two public houses, a shop, post office, tearoom, GP surgery, primary schools and both Church of England and Catholic churches.
The village is also home to the renowned public school of Ampleforth College where there is a highly regarded sports centre offering a wide range of facilities to the general public.
The property is currently on the market for £550,000 via Humberts.
