Description

THE OLD POST OFFICE – HISTORIC THREE-BEDROOM HOME IN METHERINGHAM WITH NO ONWARD CHAIN

Kinetic Estate Agents are proud to present The Old Post Office, a remarkable character property dating back around 350 years, nestled in the heart of the desirable conservation area in Metheringham. Rich in original features and full of history, this three-bedroom detached home offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of the village’s past while creating a truly unique family home.

What Kinetic Estate Agents Loves About This Property

Rob Webb (Director): “Properties with this much history don’t come to market often — it’s full of character and personality.”

Nina Sharpe (Sales & Lettings Director): “I love the original beams and fireplaces — every room tells a story.”

Jo Foster (Sales Manager): “The flexible layout makes this more than just a home — it’s a chance to own a real landmark property.”

What’s Included?

Approached via gated access to the rear, The Old Post Office opens into a rear garden that’s mainly laid to lawn and set over multiple levels, with patio seating, mature shrubs, sheds, and outbuildings. Outdoor power, lighting, and storage add practicality, and the multi-level design offers plenty of scope for creative landscaping.

Stepping inside, a porch welcomes you with tiled flooring and side window before leading into the first of several charming reception rooms. The sitting room (3.06m x 3.52m / 10'0" x 11'6") is warm and inviting with fitted carpet, radiator, side and rear windows, and a feature fireplace. Moving through, the main lounge (3.87m x 4.45m / 12'8" x 14'7") showcases exposed beams, original wood flooring, and a striking brick fireplace. With dual aspect windows to the front and rear, and plenty of period detailing, it perfectly balances history with homely comfort. A further reception room (2.70m x 3.39m / 8'10" x 11'1") offers versatility as a snug or study, featuring exposed beams, a charming fireplace, and front-facing window. The Post Office Room itself (4.50m x 4.58m / 14'9" x 15'0") is an incredible space — once the heart of the village, now a unique living area with brick fireplace, front door, and bay-style window. Towards the rear, a dining room (2.86m x 2.32m / 9'4" x 7'7") with laminate flooring and rear aspect window links neatly to the kitchen. The kitchen (3.52m x 3.64m / 11'6" x 11'11") is fitted with a range of base units, tiled walls, electric oven, gas hob, extractor, and stainless steel sink with drainer. A stable-style door opens directly onto the garden. Completing the ground floor, the utility room (3.26m x 1.34m / 10'8" x 4'5") provides space for appliances and houses the gas central heating boiler.

A carpeted staircase rises to a spacious landing with loft access and storage. The principal bedroom (4.08m x 4.66m / 13'4" x 15'3") sits at the front of the property, with radiator and ample proportions to create a calm retreat.The second bedroom (4.54m x 2.44m / 14'11" x 8'0") is another generous double with rear aspect window, built-in wardrobes, laminate flooring, and radiator.Bedroom three (2.17m x 3.46m / 7'1" x 11'4") is a comfortable single, ideal as a child’s room, nursery, or study, with front-facing window. The family bathroom (3.23m x 3.56m max / 10'7" x 11'8") is an excellent size, comprising four pieces: panelled bath, large walk-in shower cubicle, wash basin, WC, fitted carpet, storage cupboard, and rear aspect window.
