Long Marston, York, North Yorkshire, YO26

A charming and spacious two-bedroom detached bungalow, formerly the village post office, bursting with character and set on a generous plot in the heart of Long Marston, with superb village amenities and excellent road links to York.

Set on a generous plot in the sought-after village of Long Marston, this unique two-bedroom detached bungalow offers spacious accommodation, rich in charm and character. Formerly Marston Post Office, the property has been thoughtfully converted to create a comfortable home that beautifully blends traditional features with modern convenience. From exposed wooden beams and wide hallways to solid oak internal doors and original period touches, the home retains much of its historic appeal while offering generous, well-proportioned living spaces throughout.

Internally, the bungalow features impressively large rooms, including a bright and welcoming sitting room and a spacious kitchen diner—ideal for entertaining or relaxed family living. Both double bedrooms benefit from extensive fitted wardrobes, and the wide hallway enhances the open and airy feel of the layout. The bathroom is particularly spacious, featuring a separate bath and walk-in shower enclosure, complemented by a convenient separate WC. The property is also equipped with solar panels providing electricity and oil-fired central heating, ensuring energy efficiency and comfort all year round.

The outside space is just as impressive. A beautifully maintained front garden sets the tone, while the expansive rear garden is mainly laid to lawn, providing ample space for outdoor dining, gardening or future development (subject to planning). A summer house offers an additional tranquil retreat or hobby space. To the side of the property is a car port and detached garage. While the driveway is currently shared, planning permission is in process to create a private driveway for the adjacent bungalow, which will result in an exclusive access arrangement for this home.

Long Marston is a picturesque and well-connected village just a short drive from York, offering a peaceful rural lifestyle with the benefit of nearby amenities. The village is home to the highly regarded Long Marston Church of England Primary School and the much-loved local pub, The Sun Inn, both within walking distance. Excellent road links via the A64 and A1(M), along with rail connections from nearby stations, make commuting and travel easy. Local shops, services and further schools can be found in nearby villages such as Tockwith and Rufforth. This is a rare opportunity to own a character-filled bungalow in one of North Yorkshire’s most desirable village locations.
