Treborough, Watchet

A charming period house situated amongst unspoilt countryside on the Brendon Hills with stabling and grounds totaling approximately 3.2 acres

Approached via a quiet no-through country lane in the picturesque hamlet of Treborough, The Old Post Office is a charming period house enjoying delightful views over the surrounding rolling countryside.

A pathway leads through the garden to the front entrance and into a vestibule, from which doors open to both the kitchen and the sitting room.

The farmhouse-style kitchen/breakfast room is well appointed with an electric dual-control three-oven Aga, range of base cabinets, granite work surfaces, a Belfast sink and a terracotta tiled floor. A large window above the sink provides charming, southerly views. The kitchen leads into a spacious boot/utility
room fitted with built-in cabinetry, Mirostone work surfaces and a butler sink, boiler, together with ample space for coats, boots and a large fridge freezer. A door opens to the garden on the west side of the house, and a window overlooks the church behind, while an internal door leads into the rear hallway. The sitting room is a particularly inviting space, featuring exposed beams and a striking inglenook fireplace with wood-burning stove as its focal point. A large window allows natural light to fill the room and frames views towards Treborough Common. From here, a door leads to the rear hallway, which houses both the main and secondary staircases.
The dining room, accessed from the hallway, is generously proportioned and well suited for entertainment, with space for a substantial dining table. Character features include a beamed ceiling, inglenook fireplace with wood-burning stove and a large window with window seat enjoying countryside views. A porch provides access to the front garden. The dining room also leads to a secondary utility room, fitted with its own sink and work surfaces and offering space for an additional fridge; equally, it could serve as a useful preparation kitchen. This room also has direct access to the front garden. A downstairs shower room completes the ground floor accommodation.

Two staircases rise to the first floor. At the top of the main staircase, a charming arched leaded window overlooks the church. There are four well-proportioned
double bedrooms most benefitting from built-in storage and all enjoying attractive rural views. There are three bedrooms in the West Wing and the secondary staircase services the bedroom in the East Wing, there is a connecting door between the two wings, hence the house can easily be separated into two separate properties. The landing provides a large airing cupboard and additional storage, and there is a family bathroom with a Ball and Clawfoot bath.

The grounds extend to approximately 3.2 acres, comprising gardens and paddocks. Immediately surrounding the house are pretty, partly walled south-facing cottage gardens, a west-facing terrace, lawned areas, flower beds and two small stone outbuildings. A single garage lies to the west side of the house.

Across the lane is a large, south-facing productive vegetable garden with Box hedging bordered beds, fruit bushes, a large 40 square metre polytunnel, timber tool shed and stone outbuilding. To the east of the property there are two stables, one stone-built and the other timber, with a small yard area. The land is divided into three paddocks, all bordered with well maintained hedges, predominantly beech extending to approximately 2.91 acres and enjoying far-reaching views towards the Bristol Channel.
