Long Marston, York

Ashtons Estate Agents are delighted to present The Old Post Office, a truly captivating Grade II listed home believed to date back almost 300 years. Full of warmth, charm and character, this beautiful property has been lovingly cared for over the years, creating a wonderful family home where memories have been made for generations. Occupying an idyllic village setting between York and Wetherby, it enjoys the perfect balance of peaceful countryside living whilst remaining within easy reach of local amenities, excellent schools and commuter links. Offering a rare opportunity to become the next custodians of such a special home, it is ready for a new family to enjoy and continue its remarkable story.

Stepping through the traditional timber front door, the welcoming entrance immediately sets the tone for the home. Character features are evident throughout, from the exposed beams and beautiful large sash windows. The generous living room is centred around a magnificent inglenook fireplace with an oak mantel, exposed brickwork and a wood-burning stove, creating a wonderfully cosy space for family life and relaxing evenings. The separate dining room provides the ideal setting for family gatherings and entertaining.

To the rear, the beautifully designed shaker-style breakfast kitchen is undoubtedly the heart of the home. Thoughtfully planned with oak worktops, a Belfast sink, Rangemaster cooker and integrated appliances, there is ample space for everyday dining beside a second wood-burning stove. Enjoying delightful views across the garden, this inviting room is perfectly suited to modern family living, with a stable door opening directly outside.

Arranged over three floors, the home offers four generously proportioned bedrooms, providing flexible living for growing families, guests or those working from home. The larger bedroom benefits from its own en-suite bathroom, while the skilfully converted second floor offers two further characterful bedrooms with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, countryside views and the added benefit of eaves storage.. A spacious family bathroom and additional en-suite shower room complete the living space.

Externally, a private driveway provides parking for several vehicles and leads to a detached brick-built garage. The beautifully established cottage-style rear garden is a true highlight, with mature planting, colourful borders and secluded seating areas, creating a peaceful and private setting for children to play, family gatherings or simply relaxing outdoors.

Homes such as The Old Post Office rarely become available. Beautifully blending period charm with carefully considered modern improvements, this is far more than simply a house—it is a home filled with history, character and heart, ready for the next family to create memories and continue its remarkable legacy.
