Character abounds in this Grade II Listed family home

The Old Post House, as it's name suggests, was the village post office and general store right back as far as the 19th century. Although the building is mentioned on the 1791 Wedmore Parish Map and probably dates from the latter half of the 18th century.

More recently, it has become a versatile family home. With six reception rooms, there is ample space for family life, entertaining, and working from home. The spacious living room at the front of the house features a beautiful flagstone floor, with large windows including a bay window with storage seating. Despite it's spacious proportions, the room feels cozy and is centred around a fully working log burner.

Step through the double doors from the living room, into the study, which also features flagstone flooring and lots of natural light, making it an ideal home office.

On the opposite side of the central entrance hall, which also features flagstone flooring; is another reception room, currently being used as a gym, with slate tile flooring, an open working fireplace and exposed wooden beams.

Also off the central hallway, is the dining room, boasting more flagstone flooring, exposed beams, stone walls and an incredible inglenook fireplace creating a wonderfully cosy atmosphere.

At the rear of the house is the kitchen extension, which has been in place since 1998. Despite it's more modern history, it still features exposed beams and is a perfect fit with the rest of the house. The dining / family area of the kitchen features plenty of storage units with a granite work surface, and a serving hatch through to the dining room.

The kitchen itself also features granite work surfaces, an integrated dishwasher and fridge freezer, and an electric Rangemaster. Plenty of storage units are available in the kitchen, but there is also a utility room off the kitchen, which is also home to a separate downstairs WC.

Before heading upstairs, there's a central open hallway, which is large enough to be used as a room in it's own right. Off this, is the family / play room, which could also be used as a fifth bedroom.

Heading upstairs, the principal bedroom has exposed stone walls and wooden beams, and has plenty of storage in 2 large built in wardrobes. If that storage area isn't enough, there is also an entire storage room / loft space adjacent to the bedroom. This space also has architectural plans to create a dormer en-suite if desired, subject to previous planning permission being re-granted.

Three further double bedrooms feature front aspect windows and plenty of light. The bedroom nearest the family bathroom also has the addition of a sink.

The family bathroom is fitted with sealed wood-effect flooring and has both a large bath and a corner shower, as well as two towel radiators.

Stepping outside through the kitchen stable door, the garden is mostly laid to lawn, with a patio area and good sized courtyard. The garden is walled, using blue lias stone and has side access on both sides of the house. A drive-through tandem garage leads to a carport which is currently being used as a covered seating area.

This is a rare opportunity to own a truly special home with a perfect blend of heritage and contemporary living, close to the amenities of Wedmore and numerous countryside walks.
