Description

Positioned in the heart of the sought-after village of Chilton, The Old Post Office is a charming and versatile family home, seamlessly combining its early 18th-century origins with carefully considered contemporary additions. Set within the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the property enjoys a particularly attractive setting, surrounded by open countryside, yet remains conveniently located just 5 miles from Didcot Parkway, which offers regular rail services to London Paddington in approximately 40 minutes.

Formerly the village shop and post office, the property retains a strong sense of its heritage, with a wealth of character features including exposed timbers and an impressive inglenook fireplace. The kitchen/dining room forms the natural hub of the home, providing a light-filled and sociable space with glazed doors opening onto the terrace and landscaped gardens beyond. The sitting room is both elegant and inviting, centred around the fireplace, while a separate cinema room offers an excellent space for relaxation.

The principal bedroom suite is well appointed and benefits from a balcony with attractive views across neighbouring paddocks and the surrounding countryside. A ground floor bedroom with en suite facilities can be accessed separately to the main entrance, providing ideal accommodation for guests or multi-generational living.

The gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped to create a series of well-defined outdoor spaces. To the front, there is a large driveway allowing for ample off street parking, together with an electric vehicle charging point. A detached garage building offers further potential, subject to the necessary consents..


Chilton is an attractive and well-regarded village situated at the foot of the Berkshire Downs, offering excellent connectivity via the A34, with access north to Oxford and the M40, and south to Newbury and the M4. The village has an excellent primary school, a welcoming pub and a historic church, and is conveniently located approximately half a mile from Harwell Science and Innovation Campus.
