Situation

Old Post Cottage enjoys a prominent position within the Conservation Area in the centre of Sherborne St John, a popular village situated just to the North of Basingstoke. The village itself has a highly regarded Primary School, Church, Shop and Public House, whilst nearby Basingstoke offers a far more extensive range of leisure, recreational and educational facilities.

The location is excellent for commuting being within easy access of the M3 via Junction 6, and the mainline railway station in Basingstoke provides fast and frequent services to London Waterloo.

The Property

Old Post Cottage is a notable period house sitting within a Conservation Area in the centre of the village which has been sympathetically improved and modernised by the current owners. The accommodation is flexible with bedrooms on ground and first floors and is offered in excellent order, with no onward chain.

The front door opens to the entrance porch which leads through to the welcoming hall from which the staircase rises to the first floor. The refitted dual aspect kitchen/breakfast room overlooks the garden with a stable door, central island and range cooker. Adjoining the kitchen is the dining room and a utility room with a rear door. The sitting room has a large central fireplace with an open fire. There is also a ground floor bedroom and shower room.

On the first floor the master bedroom has built-in wardrobes and a vaulted ceiling. There is also a further double bedroom, the family bathroom and a study/bedroom 4.

Outside

The garden lies predominantly to the front and is level and fully enclosed by a combination of hedging and fencing offering a high degree of privacy. There is a side paved terrace for alfresco dining and off-street parking for a number of cars.
