Property Description
As its name implies, the property served the local community as a post office until the second half of the 20th century. Since then it has been in use as either a private house or until very recently, as a holiday home generating a very healthy income. Of general interest to potential buyers is the fact that the house is also offered with commoners rights.
Although it is believed to date back as far as the 18th century, the property has been the subject of alteration, extension and refurbishment over the years. It now offers interesting and flexible two storey accommodation, which is well presented and has the added benefit of low tariff electric heating and double glazed windows. The accommodation includes a glazed entrance porch/conservatory, sitting room, kitchen, dining room, a ground floor bedroom, (which can double as a study), a shower room and (on the first floor) two additional bedrooms and a bathroom. Undoubtedly one of the strengths of the Old Post Office is its setting in a large level lawned sunny garden that extends to over a third of an acre and from which there are views of the adjacent common land and beyond to the Malvern Hills in the far distance. Within the grounds there is off road parking for several vehicles and a garage.

Location
The property enjoys an excellent position with frontage onto the A4208 overlooking Coombe Green Common on the outskirts of the highly regarded village of Birtsmorton, just under three miles from the popular village of Welland where there is a local shop and stores, a primary school and church. Educational facilities are second to none. The property falls within the catchment area of the popular Hanley Castle High School and there is a further primary school in the nearby village of Castlemorton, just over a mile away. The larger towns of Malvern (six miles), Upton upon Severn (six miles) and Tewkesbury (nine miles) are all easy to reach. Malvern has a comprehensive choice of facilities including shops and banks, Waitrose supermarket, the renowned theatre and cinema complex and the Splash leisure pool and gymnasium. Upton also boasts a choice of amenities and is well known for its summer music and water festivals and for its famous riverside marina. The larger cities of Worcester, Gloucester and the town of Cheltenham are easily reached via the M50 motorway (three miles south of Upton).
Situated in some of the most beautiful countryside of South Worcestershire, Coombe Green and Birtsmorton are well known for their common land, which dominates the neighbourhood and is literally on the opposite side of the road from the Old Post Office, so this is the perfect spot to see sheep grazing (see photo), and for dog walkers or for those who take a keen interest in the equestrian world. It is also handily placed for access to the Malvern Hills and to the Severn Valley both of which are only a short drive away.
