Stunning five bedroom period property in the beautiful village of Ridgmont
An exceptional and highly individual period residence of significant character, steeped in history and formerly serving as the village Post Office. This impressive home combines three separate residential cottages, including a beautifully appointed one-bedroom self-contained annex, all set within the very heart of the picturesque village of Ridgmont.

The ground floor comprises a welcoming entrance hall, an elegant lounge, second formal reception room, snug, well-proportioned kitchen/diner, utility room, boot room and cloakroom. To the first floor is a superb principal bedroom with en-suite, three further double bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom.

It comprises a kitchen/diner and conservatory, double bedroom and en-suite shower room. Externally, the property is set within a mature and well-established garden, offering a high degree of privacy.
