An utterly charming detached country cottage situated in a large south facing plot overlooking fields and in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. What an absolute stunner The Old Post House is - quaint and quirky, full of character and oodles of style. As its name suggests, this former village post office has been the subject of extensive, careful modernisation and improvement by the present owner and is now presented in superb order throughout. The accommodation is very spacious, perfect for couples or families alike and there are wonderful views to be enjoyed from virtually every aspect, either over open fields at the rear or over apple orchards to the Mendips from the front. There is a very attractive sitting room with wood burning stove, dining room

(which could be used as another bedroom), garden room, cloakroom and kitchen with integrated appliances on the ground floor, whilst upstairs there are 3 double bedrooms and a super family bathroom. The double glazed windows are complimented by oil fired central heating and outside there is plenty of parking, a garage, workshop and store. The gardens are simply divine, very well stocked - a gardeners paradise. Viewing is essential to appreciate this lovely property.
