Set in the heart of Combe St Nicholas, The Old Post Office is a characterful five-bedroom semi-detached home that will suit a growing family seeking village life. Period features and spacious reception rooms create flexible living space: a large sitting room with log burner, formal dining room, study and a bright kitchen with adjoining breakfast room. The rear garden, arranged over two levels, offers a patio, lawn, mature planting, greenhouse and useful powered outbuildings — excellent for family gardening or hobbies. Gated off‑street parking adds practicality in the village centre.
The property is offered with no onward chain and benefits from a highly regarded local primary school and nearby village amenities. Internally the layout is generous for a village house, with a master bedroom linked to a four‑piece Jack-and‑Jill en‑suite, three further doubles, a single bedroom and an additional shower room. Four reception rooms plus a sizable utility and ground‑floor WC give flexibility for home working and family life.
Buyers should note this is an older, period building (pre‑1900) with stone walls likely uninsulated and double glazing fitted after 2002. Heating details are inconsistent across documents (oil-fired central heating is stated, while separate information lists electric storage heaters), so the heating system may need inspection or updating. The internal footprint is modest (about 732 sq ft listed), so prospective purchasers should confirm usable floor area and room sizes. Council tax is above average. Overall, this is a character home with strong village appeal and scope for sympathetic updating to increase comfort and energy efficiency.
