Description

We are delighted to offer for sale this charming former post office, beautifully positioned in the heart of the sought-after village of Scopwick and set within approximately 1.6 acres. This unique home would make an ideal equine property or suit anyone requiring generous outdoor space for hobbies or lifestyle use, thanks to its versatile grounds and extensive range of outbuildings, sheds and workshops, alongside paddock land and a well-maintained formal garden.

The property has been lovingly owned by the same family for many years, during which time it has been thoughtfully renovated, extended and restored, carefully retaining a wealth of original features that add to its character and appeal. It has served as a wonderful family home and now presents an excellent opportunity for the next owners to make it their own. The vendor has previously operated the property as a successful bed and breakfast, and the layout offers scope to be separated if required, making it well suited for continued B&B use, an Airbnb arrangement or a holiday let. In addition, the current owner holds a smallholding licence, further enhancing the property’s appeal for those seeking a lifestyle opportunity.

The accommodation briefly comprises an entrance hall, store room, dining room, snug, kitchen/breakfast room, family room, utility area and shower room. To the first floor there are four well-proportioned bedrooms, with the principal bedroom benefiting from an en-suite, in addition to a family bathroom.

Externally, the grounds are a particular highlight, featuring a formal rear garden which leads onto paddock land. The current owner has previously used this area for growing vegetables, and prior to that as grazing land for horses, demonstrating its flexibility. The property also benefits from two separate driveways, providing ample access and parking.
