Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • A superb modernised period house
  • First class investment opportunity - currently under contract with Sykes Holiday Cottages
  • Sought after village location
  • Prime tourist area
A SUPERB MODERNISED PERIOD HOUSE IN THE VILLAGE CENTRE OFFERING EXTENSIVE AND VERSATILE MODERN LIVING ACCOMMODATION IN THIS PRIME TOURIST AREA.
FIRST CLASS INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY – CURRENTLY UNDER CONTRACT WITH SYKES HOLIDAY COTTAGES.

Ampleforth is a renowned village lying on the southern edge of the North York Moors National Park and has the benefit of two public houses, a shop and post office, tearoom, Doctors’ surgery and both Church of England and Catholic churches and primary schools. It is also home to the renowned public school of Ampleforth College (now fully co-educational) where there is a highly regarded sports centre offering a wide range of facilities to the general public.

Constructed of attractive stone elevations, the Old Post Office is an extensive, modernised period property lying in the heart of this most sought after of villages. The property was once the village post office and bearing witness to this is the unusually wide window to the front elevation where no less than four sash windows now allow light to stream into the principal reception room. In recent years, a rear annexe lying at a higher level has been amalgamated within the accommodation of the main house but could once more be capable informally, of being used independently as an adjunct to the principal accommodation.

The property has been thoughtfully and comprehensively modernised and indeed is a true fusion of the old and new and now offers extensive extremely versatile, flexible and manageable living accommodation of quite some quality and style whilst at the same time retaining many original features to include sash windows, Pine panelled doors, window seats, ceiling beams and structural timbers which all have the effect of retaining the feel of the original period property. Contemporary features include double glazed windows virtually throughout and underfloor heating to both the rear part of the Kitchen and the Study/Home Office.

HOLIDAY LETTINGS
The Old Post Office currently has the benefit of a contract with highly regarded Sykes Cottages.

Details of the property can be found on the Sykes Cottages website.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on January 22, 2022

    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: obtained from Ofcom on February 9, 2022

    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
