This charming and versatile four bedroom detached home has character features throughout and a beautiful south facing garden. Located in the desirable village of Gorsley, with plenty of local amenities including a primary school, a village store with post office, a coffee shop and a popular pub.
The Post House is situated in the village, a short walk from local amenities and the school, and a short drive from the M50. Nearby Ross on Wye is an attractive market town in the beautiful Wye Valley. The M50 provides good accessibility to major towns and cities such as Cheltenham, Worcester and Birmingham, and Gloucester lies approximately 25 minutes' drive to the south. Gorsley provides a wonderful balance between rural living and town living.
The Post House was built with locally sourced Gorsley stone in the 1850s. It has subsequently been extended using the same stone cladding. The good sized entrance hall has doors to the downstairs WC and the large tanked cellar, which is currently used as a utility room but has the potential to become another family living space.
A door from the entrance hall opens up into the dining area which leads into the kitchen. The kitchen is a bright, airy room with extensive cupboard and work surface space, a range cooker and plenty of room for appliances. A stable door from the kitchen takes you out onto the patio. The kitchen / dining room could be made into an open plan space, if desired. The door from the dining area leads you into the large living room, with a recently laid oak floor in keeping with the character of the house, and a wood burner. The main living spaces overlook the south facing back garden, filling these rooms with natural light.
A door from the lounge leads into the extended part of the property with a study area leading down to a further reception room with French doors out to the garden. This leads to a large south facing bedroom with high ceilings and French doors to a covered private terrace. The large en suite has recently been updated to a high standard and includes a separate shower and bath. This arrangement makes the property highly suitable for multi-generational living. On the first floor there are three spacious double bedrooms. The two largest bedrooms share wonderful views to May Hill. A family bathroom including a three-piece suite with shower over bath serves the upstairs bedrooms.
Outside - The Post House has a beautifully landscaped south facing garden with a variety of trees, shrubs and a terraced pond. There are roses and a wisteria across the south facing facade of the property, enhancing its country cottage appeal.
The secluded garden has extensive lawns. There are two patio areas, one by the doors to the dining room and kitchen, and one by the bedroom in the extended section of the property. Both have ample seating space for outdoor living and entertaining. There is a wood store with a concrete base which could be converted for alternative uses, and there is a large garage / workshop. Parking is accessed via a gated driveway at the side of the property where there is space for multiple vehicles.

In order to offer flexible appointment times, we have a team of dedicated Viewings Specialists who will show you around. Whilst they know as much as possible about each property, in-depth questions may be better directed towards the Sales Team in the office.
