Property Description

Description


As its name suggests Post Office Cottage was at one time the post office for the village of Hollington but the original house pre-dates that era by probably 200 years. In recent times however the cottage has been comprehensively upgraded, modernised and extended to a very high specification which cleverly combines the characterful charm of the original with the requirements of modern day living.

Delightfully situated close to the heart of the popular village of Hollington which itself is conveniently located for ready access to the city of Derby and the market town of Ashbourne the property is likely to be of considerable appeal to the discerning professional couple or family purchaser seeking a high quality and individual home.

Briefly comprising three generous reception rooms, large breakfast kitchen with Aga and conservatory the ground floor accommodation is completed by an excellent shower room and utility area. At first floor level there is a luxurious bedroom suite having double bedroom, en suite bathroom and dressing room, two further bedrooms and family bathroom. Outside generous gardens, garage and oak framed motorhome with workshop/store.

Early viewing is essential.
