Description

Description

Dating from the mid to late 18th century, The Old Posting House is a historic property located in the centre of the Cotswold village of Didmarton which is positioned on the doorstep of the beautiful Badminton Estate. Grade II listed with accompanying railings and a handsome façade, the property reflects the elegance of Georgian architecture featuring classically symmetrical sash windows with panelled shutters and a central swept metal porch, while inside, the property has been thoughtfully arranged to suit modern living.
 
The ground floor comprises three reception rooms including a welcoming dining hall that sets the tone for the home’s refined proportions and generous ceiling heights. The heart of the house is the kitchen/breakfast open plan to a family room, a versatile space designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The adjoining family room, with its open fireplace and ample seating area, creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. The sitting room is equally impressive - an elegant, well-proportioned space ideal for formal gatherings or quiet relaxation. Across the first and second floors, there are four bedrooms and two bathrooms, with the main bedroom standing out for its scale and grandeur with magnificent exposed timber vaulted ceiling.
 
A gravelled driveway to the side leads to parking and to the coach house, a detached stone outbuilding, offering two garages, a store room, and storage above. Behind the property lies the generous garden, complete with a tool shed, wood shed, and a charming open-fronted loggia - perfect for summer entertaining. To the side of the garage, a further walled garden adds to the property’s unique appeal.

The property is within a short walk of the Kings Arms pub/restaurant, the village hall and playing fields. The village has a high number of historic listed houses and a local garage which also provides everyday essentials.
