The gorgeous rear garden is south facing and offers a haven to enjoy during all seasons. The garden is mainly laid to lawn with mature hedging down the side, pretty flower and shrub boarders, and a raised decked entertaining area which is a fabulous spot to enjoy the sunshine and the birdsong.
A really useful feature of this home is the garage/store and private driveway at the rear which is accessed via Pound Lane.
The property has undergone extensive works by the current owners during their time at The Old Post Office Cottage, including completely new thatch, central heating, new oil tank and new electrics , so this beautiful cottage is ready to move into unpack and enjoy.
Area - Oare is a quaint village nestled in the picturesque countryside of Wiltshire, located between Marlborough and Pewsey, and it offers a tranquil setting within the stunning landscape of the Pewsey Vale. It's particularly known for its rich history, beautiful walks, and community spirit.
The village supports a vibrant community life with its fantastic primary school, village hall, and historic church at the heart of communal activities. Events like the Oare Easter Trail are indicative of an active community calendar. For those looking to enjoy local delicacies, the village offers wood-fired pizza on the first Friday of every month, contributing to the area's charm and appeal.
The Owners Love - "The Old Post Office has filled our lives with so much joy over the past three years. A home to our two and four legged family, a base for numerous adventures, a place to host laughter filled dinner parties and a place with enough memories to last a lifetime. While we are relocating to be nearer family and we know we will miss this special home, we are excited for the next residents to experience such a wonderful place to live. It has been a labour of love to restore her to her former glory, with a few modern touches to make it a comfortable place to live. The house blossoms with charm and feels filled with good energy.
When we arrive home on those cold crisp winter evenings we love to enjoy the cosy living room and the roaring fire that sits within the grand fireplace with our animals.
The four bedrooms are sufficiently spacious for large double beds in each. The Master bedroom, with its original beams offers a beautiful tranquil space, and each day starts with a beautiful sunrise over the fields, while the ground floor bedroom offers a beautiful view of the garden which is always a favourite with visitors.
In the summer we often spend time in the large kitchen, cooking up delights for friends and family, with the double doors opened up to the garden. It is a wonderful entertaining space at all times of year, whether it is in the dining room, kitchen or garden. We have even hosted diner parties in the cellar!
Whenever the sun is out, we will often spend time in the garden, listening to the songbirds, appreciating the colour of the flowers and getting our hands dirty gardening. Every year the apple tree delivers a spectacular bounty which means lots of apple crumble! We also love the market in Marlborough where we get all our fruit and veg."
Kim Loves - "Wow, what a house! This really is the dream home in the country with its large accommodation, wealth of charm and beautiful garden. I adore the charm of The Post Office Cottage"
