Post Offices don’t usually thrill visitors, but this one, The Old Post Office, in Wissett, will. It will get a stamp of approval from you once you see the quality of the property and the plot it sits on. With 3/4 bedrooms, an incredible barn & orangery, this is a must-view period home, call now.
The cottage... This charming property, oozes period appeal at every turn. It was built around 1800 and has been lovingly kept and extended by the current owners since 1998. The garden is a particular highlight, with separate barn/studio along with a bespoke orangery. The barn is suitable for many uses, and is sure to impress, along with the main home and location itself.
A green front door takes you into a beautiful dual-aspect living room, which was the shop front on opening in the 1800's with lounging, dining and study areas, along with exposed beams, floorboards and a feature brick fireplace. A quirky, freestanding kitchen affords great garden views, which is accessible too from the rear hallway and ornate double doors. The family bathroom sits downstairs with stripped pine doors off the hallway and the "book room" which could form a fourth bedroom or a home office.
Upstairs, the landing leads to the bedrooms that teem with character, like downstairs. The master bedroom overlooks the quiet road to the front, and benefits from a separate room, which could form a nursery, bedroom or dressing room. A skylight allows a great view of the generous rear garden. Bedroom three has distinctive timber panelling and lovely views to the front. Bedroom two is large with cast-iron fireplace and stripped floors, along with another "hidden" room like the master bedroom, which adds to the period appeal.
There is off-road parking for three cars, along with a brick and block garage for a car or storage, and, to the rear is a deep and broad garden dotted with mature trees and shrubs, with patio and lawn.
The barn and orangery are situated at the rear of the plot and benefit from a separate, shared, vehicular access if you require, currently accessed from the garden or via a pedestrian gate from the driveway to the rear. The barn is currently used as an art studio, but would make a fabulous office and could become further accommodation or a holiday let, stpp. The orangery is a gorgeous bespoke addition, constructed with heavy guage steel and glass with automatic roof vents for temperature/humidity control.
Wissett is a small conservation hamlet of under 300 residents, yet is just two miles from the market town of Halesworth. It has an 11th century round tower church, a village hall and public house "The Plough Inn" which serves (aptly) as a village shop.
Agents notes... A pre-recorded walkaround tour is available for this property.
