Set in the peaceful hamlet of Holsworthy Beacon, this former village post office has been converted into a detached three-bedroom home offering flexible family accommodation across two floors. The house sits on a decent plot with an enclosed rear garden, detached single garage and car port, plus private off-road parking — practical for countryside living. Available with no onward chain for a straightforward purchase.
The property retains traditional character with cob-built walls and a slate roof, providing period charm and solid construction. Internally there is generous living space including a large kitchen and two bathrooms, making it well-suited to family life or holiday use close to Holsworthy (about three miles).
Buyers should note practical considerations: the house runs on oil-fired central heating, has very slow broadband speeds, and holds an EPC rating of E. The location is rural and relatively remote, which suits those seeking tranquillity but may be less convenient for daily commuting or intensive online work. Some updating may be required to modernise services and finishes.
This home offers a rare village setting with garden, parking and garage — a comfortable base for families or those looking to embrace rural life while being within easy reach of Holsworthy’s shops, schools and amenities.
