  • Chain Free
  • Currently Run As Post Office & Village Store
  • Scope For More Business and Letting Income

  • This Is A Rare Opportunity

Guide Price £550,000 to £575,000 | Surridge Mison Estates are delighted to take instruction for one of Willingdon’s most treasured buildings, The Old Willingdon Post Office. Steeped in history, this iconic 16th century, Grade II Listed building is at the centre of Willingdon Village, which is currently the village shop and Post Office, was originally a bakery with tea-room. It would be wonderful to find a buyer to carry on the post office and develop further income from the village shop (perhaps also develop the barn and garage building behind too) plus the spacious three bedroom accommodation that comes with the building. Subject to change of use, if the buyer so wishes, the building would make a very special residential dwelling with some sympathetic re-working of the interior. This really is a rare opportunity for buyers with vision and an appreciation of fine old buildings.

We have prepared these property particulars & floor plans as a general guide. All measurements are approximate and into bays, alcoves and occasional window spaces where appropriate. Room sizes cannot be relied upon for carpets, flooring and furnishings. We have tried to ensure that these particulars are accurate but, to a large extent, we have to rely on what the vendor tells us about the property. You may need to carry out more investigations in the property than it is practical or reasonable for an estate agent to do when preparing sales particulars. For example, we have not carried out any kind of survey of the property to look for structural defects and would advise any homebuyer to obtain a surveyor’s report before exchanging contracts. We have not checked whether any equipment in the property (such as central heating) is in working order and would advise homebuyers to check this. You should also instruct a solicitor to investigate all legal matters relating to the property (e.g. title, planning permission, etc) as these are specialist matters in which estate agents are not qualified. Your solicitor will also agree with the seller what items (e.g. carpets, curtains, etc) will be included in the sale.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
