About this property

This linked period cottage, which is believed to date back, in part, at least 400 years, is offered to the market with no chain and presents its next owners with tremendous potential in the heart of this sought after Woodford Valley village.

The Old Post Cottage is situated in the heart of the highly sought after village of Middle Woodford, located within the picturesque Woodford Valley, through which the River Avon flows. This linked period cottage, which is believed to date back, in part, at least 400 years, has performed a number of important functions within the village and has been owned by its current occupants for five decades. The property is constructed of mainly washed brick and smooth rendered elevations beneath a tiled roof. The well balanced accommodation comprises three reception rooms, the sitting room of which features a fine inglenook fireplace. Completing the ground floor is a kitchen, a bathroom and a lobby which leads to the side return. Found on the first floor are three bedrooms and a cloakroom.

The property will require updating but offers tremendous potential, with its gorgeous views across the river valley opposite and its position within the locale, it makes this much cherished home very desirable. To fully appreciate this fantastic opportunity to purchase in the Woodford Valley, we thoroughly recommend a viewing at your earliest convenience.
