Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold

The Old Post office is an imposing detached period property dating from the 18th century.  Lying within a Conservation Area, the house enjoys a picturesque setting in the centre of this lovely rural village located in the much sought after Glaven Valley.  The triangular village green is surrounded by attractive period properties - well spaced out and enjoying real community character with the large adjacent pond adding to the sense of openness.  

The house has been recently refurbished to a very high standard by the current owners with 4 bedrooms (2 en-suite) as well as 3 reception rooms, kitchen/breakfast room, utility and cellar.  Outside, the parking area has space for up to 4 cars as well as a good sized garage (currently used as a gym) with an attractively landscaped rear garden.



Edgefield is a rural village located within the Glaven Valley and made up of predominantly period and historic properties around the village green Conservation Area - the communal centre of the village featuring the war memorial, village sign and village hall. Nearby is the much celebrated family friendly village inn with spa facilities, The Pigs, which offers a wide range of real ales, meals and accommodation with fresh produce available from Edgefield Nurseries a short drive away. 

Holt is around 4 miles away, a charming Georgian market town with the famous Gresham Public School to the east-side. Holt has a full range of shops, restaurants, doctors and dentist surgeries and the well known Bakers and Larners foodstore and is surrounded by undulating well-wooded countryside, approximately 8 miles from the north Norfolk coast at Blakeney, 12 miles from the market town of Fakenham and 17 miles to the cathedral city of Norwich, with its mainline station to London and airport.
