Description

The Old Post Office is a charming cottage with a private and enclosed garden hidden in the heart of a village.

Constructed of stone under a tiled roof, the property is 360 years old and originally the Post Office for the village. The house is not listed and has been sympathetically renovated in recent years, however there is further scope to extend should a buyer be willing.

Internally, there is a seamless blend of period features combined with modern appliances such as Nest remote heating controls and integrated Alexa compliant speaker system. On the ground floor there are three main reception rooms with tremendous character and a kitchen/breakfast room that is central to the building. A useful study and decent sized utility room can be found off the entrance hall.

Above, the bedroom accommodation is arranged over two floors and comprises four bedrooms with a bath or shower room on each floor.

To the rear of the property is a walled garden with a private terrace, separate barbeque area and multipurpose outbuilding with potential to convert into a home office. Otherwise, the garden is mostly laid to lawn with minimal herbaceous borders. There is a further garden with mature trees, plenty of parking and an incredible scope for a garage block, annexe or separate dwelling, subject to the usual planning consent.


The Old Post Office is nestled away in the very heart of the village, surrounded by period properties and approached via a discreet entrance off the road. South Newington is a popular village situated between the market towns of Chipping Norton and Banbury close to Bloxham. The village has a pub, The Duck Pond, which has a popular restaurant and a distinctive 13th century church, St Peter's. The village hall is centred around the Poleaxe, which is a popular play area for children and holds regular seasonal events along with clubs varying from art to yoga. There is a pop-up Post Office in Barford village every Thursday afternoon, with postal and banking services.

More specialised facilities can be found nearby at Bloxham including doctor, dental and veterinary surgeries and day to day supermarket.

Local primary schools can be found at Great Tew, Bloxham, Hook Norton and Deddington with secondary schools at the Warriner (Bloxham) and Chipping Norton. Prep schools at Kitebrook (Moreton-in-Marsh), Carrdus (Overthorpe) and St John's Priory (Banbury). Public Schools include Bloxham School, Tudor Hall and there are bus services from Chipping Norton and Banbury.
