Steeped in character and historical significance, this Grade-II listed old post office is ready for an upgrade.

In need of a cosmetic overhaul, this property is spacious and has the potential to be a wonderful countryside cottage.

The cottage is on sale for £250,000, and is marketed by Davis & Bowring – Lancashire, via OnTheMarket.

The former post office is a significant building in the village of Coniston Cold and is located on the outskirts of the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

The property offers two well-sized bedrooms, as well as a sitting room, fitted kitchen, and a bathroom. There is also a dining room which could potentially be used as a third bedroom.

With a large entrance hall, there is the option to use this space as a study space for those who work from home too.

To the rear of the cottage is a spacious garden, made up of both lawn and a patio area. There is also extra lawn space to the front of the property, lining the entrance path on both sides.

Still boasting the post box on the front of the house, the cottage would make for a wonderful home bursting with character.
