Description

The beauty of a Norfolk cottage, complemented by a quaint location, The Old Post Office could be the perfect charming home, or weekend retreat. The current owners have thoroughly enjoyed their time here and their care for this property means that it may continue to be much-loved for years to come.

Built in 1873 for the workers of the Harwin family, a highly respected family in the area, and serving as the village post office, The Old Post Office is now a lovely and charming cottage ready for new occupants.

The sitting room at the front is particularly charming. Ample natural light floods in through the lovely window, whilst the fireplace adds a true sense of comfort. It’s easy to imagine sitting in front of a roaring fire, enjoying a warm brew with the radio softly playing in the background, a superb space to relax and unwind. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with its shaker-style design and country wooden shelving, complemented by the adjoining dining room helping create an ideal space for entertaining guests in style.

At the far end of the cottage is the ground floor bathroom, which has also benefited from a recent makeover. Moving upstairs and the landing provides access to three bedrooms. With exposed floorboards, high ceilings, and a couple of original Victorian feature fireplaces, these spaces are bright and cosy.

The outside is low-maintenance, making this an ideal purchase for those with limited time for gardening. A gravelled rear garden requires little upkeep and is brightened with shrubs and pots. The side drive offers off-road parking, while the established front garden further enhances the beauty of the building.

This charming cottage, nestled in the heart of the village of Boughton, has been home to many happy memories over the years and is ready to create new ones with its next owner.

I always ask myself 'Would I be happy?', 'Would I trust them to look after my property?' I can honestly say YES, I would."
