Finding its name in obvious heritage, The Old Post Office is a charming 2 bedroom cottage in the quaint High Peak village of Buxworth where old-world character and day-to-day convenience blend in perfect harmony.
Perfectly situated just a moment’s walk from the historic Bugsworth Basin as the spotlight of the village’s history, this home offers a sense of seclusion and calm within a delightful semi-rural community. The Old Post Office does so whilst retaining the conveniences of modern life with schools, a supermarket, and two train stations all within walking distance.
Stepping inside through the recently added porch, this storybook cottage welcomes you with a feature red-brick fireplace for a warm evening atmosphere, tastefully complimented with luxury fittings - Karndean flooring, Hillarys window shutters and Laura Ashley light fittings give that true cosy feel to the space. To the rear, a charming shaker-style kitchen with a gas range cooker and dining space is the heart of the home.
Upstairs, quality and history continue with the original oak flooring beautifully leading between two double bedrooms and an elegant modern bathroom. Whilst the master bedroom enjoys a slightly larger space and a view towards Bugsworth Basin, the second double bedroom to the rear overlooks the private rear garden with an open outlook beyond.
Access to the fully-boarded loft is convenient with a fold-down ladder to a large storage space with the potential for conversion.
Outside
The private rear gardens enhance the sense of peace, with a courtyard, lawned area, a host of established plantings bursting into colour in the spring, and an open outlook beyond despite the private sanctum of the space. To the front, roadside parking spaces are an added convenience.
Location
The property sits opposite the historic Bugsworth Basin, offering a peaceful outlook from the main bedroom. Despite the fantastic transport links available by both road and rail, the street is pleasantly quiet and ideal for those seeking a work from home space or a peaceful garden retreat
Families will appreciate the excellent schooling nearby, with Buxworth Primary School (Ofsted - ‘Good’) just a minute’s walk away, two more primary schools nearby, parks and canal-side walks on the doorstep, and the annual Buxworth Steam Fair on your doorstep in September.
