(All distances approximate)
The Situation
The Old Post Office is situated in the rural village of Slawston, in the heart of the Welland Valley. Slawston has a small, close-knit community, an active social scene and many local events. The neighbouring village of Medbourne has a thriving local community. The village also benefits from a pre-school, public house with tea rooms, restaurant, village shop with post office, sports club with tennis courts, cricket ground, football pitch, recreational area and a fine parish church.
By rail, London St Pancras International can be reached from Market Harborough (HST with journey times from 57 minutes), lying some 6 miles away, allowing easy access for the commuter. The main A47 trunk road, which connects Leicester with Peterborough, is set to the north.
Nearby, the market town of Uppingham is some eight miles to the north and provides a good array of everyday shopping facilities including a weekly market. There is good access to the east midlands extensive road network, including the A1, M1, A14, M69 and M6. International air travel is available at East Midlands Airport, Birmingham, Stansted and Luton.
Sporting and recreational facilities are well represented and include fishing on Eyebrook Reservoir, fishing and sailing on Rutland Water, golf at Leicester, Kibworth and Market Harborough. Educational establishments are excellent in the area, with The Old Post Office being located in the catchment area for the highly rated Church Langton primary school. Other primary schools are available at Thorpe Langton, Hallaton and Bringhurst. Preparatory options are available at Spratton Hall, Maidwell Hall, Oakham and Great Glen, with secondary options at Uppingham, Oakham, Great Glen, Rugby, Oundle and Stamford.
The Property
The Old Post Office is entered through a beamed hallway into a reception room (currently used as a dining room) with a charming galleried landing overlooking, fireplace with wood burner and French doors leading out to the garden. Off this room is the drawing room, with exposed beams and fireplace, also with French doors leading to the garden. The other side leads through to a secondary hallway, off which a utility room with sink and storage space, separate larder and downstairs cloakroom can be found. The kitchen, which overlooks the front of the house, has space for a range cooker, a double Belfast style sink and a range of cupboards offering plenty of useful storage. To the end of the corridor is the sitting room, an inviting and relaxing space with an inglenook style fireplace with a wood burner and French doors leading through to the light filled conservatory/garden room, offering flexible accommodation for entertaining or a further living area and with the benefit of underfloor heating.
Stairs lead up to the first floor, with the principal bedroom overlooking the garden and with an en-suite bathroom and dressing area. Two further good-sized bedrooms, both with en-suite bathrooms, complete the upstairs accommodation and there is potential to add a fourth bedroom by converting part of the large galleried landing, subject to the relevant consents.
OUTSIDE
The Old Post Office has a gravelled driveway running down the side of the house, with a double garage set to one side. To the rear of the house are established and landscaped gardens that backs onto open countryside, with lovely lawns, a wildlife pond as well as two patio areas and a variety of mature fruit trees and shrubs offering a variety of shape and colour throughout the year. The property also boasts a wonderful garden room, flooded with light from the roof lantern and French doors leading to a stunning wisteria covered pergola, with substantial storage space located adjacent. This space offers scope for conversion to a variety of uses subject to the relevant consents.
