Post Office House is a stunning village home offering particularly generous family accommodation, including an entirely self-contained annexe offering "Air B&B" potential, together with an immediate income from the rental of the thriving community village shop which is currently occupied and solely run by Winsham shop Ltd, let on a short lease. There is further potential to create ancillary accommodation from a useful stone barn, formerly a small dwelling. Mainly stone built with some rendered elevations all set beneath a slate roof, the property has been carefully and sympathetically upgraded in recent times and is beautifully presented throughout. Briefly, the ground floor accommodation in the main house provides two welcoming reception rooms with timbered ceilings and a magnificent inglenook with Clearview multifuel stove, spacious kitchen/breakfast room, cloakroom and boiler/utility room. To the first floor there are four generous double bedrooms, all with excellent ceiling height, a superb bathroom and separate shower room. The annexe has its own independent external access but connects to the main landing at first floor level and provides a cosy kitchen/living room, shower room and excellent double bedroom. Oil fired central heating is installed together with double glazing virtually throughout, including many new windows.

Mobile Coverage: Available via EE, O2, THREE and VODAFONE. For an indication of specific speeds and supply or coverage in the area we recommend contacting your own provider.
Flooding: The property is in an area at a VERY LOW RISK from River/Sea and Surface Water flooding (defined as the chance of flooding each year as less than 0.1%). Flooding from reservoirs and groundwater is unlikely in this area.

The property is situated in the very centre of Winsham which is vibrant and much sought after village on the Somerset/Dorset border, surrounded by glorious traditional countryside and only 12 miles from the World Heritage Jurassic Coast at Lyme Regis. Local amenities include the Post Office/general store, inn, primary school, Church and a host of village activities. The small market towns of Chard and Crewkerne are some 5 and 7 miles distant respectively, offering excellent day to day amenities, including a Waitrose supermarket and main line rail service at Crewkerne. Both the A303 and M5 motorway are readily accessible and there are airports at Exeter and Bristol.

The property fronts onto the village street with the most lovely private and sunny mainly walled garden to the rear. Double wooden gates lead into the courtyard providing ample parking and there is a substantial stone barn divided into three units with loft area over currently used for storage. The west facing garden is an absolute delight with abundantly stocked herbaceous borders for all year round colour, established shrubs and trees, ornamental pond, vegetable beds and neat lawns. There is a garden WC in the old 'privy' and a small greenhouse. Secluded and peaceful this is a perfect place to relax with a glass of wine.
