Property Summary

The Old Post Office is a period four-bedroom property set in beautiful, mature gardens in the small hamlet of Lower Vobster. Vobster comprises about 45 houses and has a great community spirit - every Christmas there are Carols in the village pub (The Vobster Inn) with mulled wine and soup. There is also an annual boules competition, a community litter sweep, quiz nights etc.
Babington House Private Member’s Club with its spa, tennis courts, pools, cinema and fine dining is just 1.4 miles away and the property is close to several Independent Schools, Frome and the City of Bath. It is 1.6 miles away the medieval village of Mells where there is a community shop and café, as well as a good primary school, nursery, and toddler groups. The Talbot Inn is very popular: a traditional and stylish 15th century coaching inn.
The property benefits from two reception rooms on the ground floor, a recently replaced traditional kitchen/breakfast room, a new home office based in the garden with independent 4G, a large rear conservatory/dining room extension and sizable first floor sitting room with bi-fold doors out onto decking.
With a stunning garden and surrounded by the Somerset countryside, the current owners have modernised and re decorated throughout, replaced all the carpets and put down beautiful engineered oak flooring in the reception rooms, updated all the electrics and plumbing, created a utility room, and have opened up the rear garden.
The vendors say – “Originally dating back to around 1640, we believe the building was originally three cottages and there are some lovely, quirky features like an old bread oven and a hidden cupboard under the stairs. It was a trading Post Office until about 35 years ago and then 3 cottages became 1 residential dwelling. The house is over 100 foot long and is a great space for families as we can be in different rooms, but there is more than enough space to all be together and the outdoor space is great for entertaining!”
