Nestled in the heart of the highly regarded village of Walton-on-Trent, this charming and historic semi-detached cottage, formerly known as The Old Post Office, beautifully combines period character with thoughtful modernisation by the current owners.

Retaining many original features including exposed beams, quirky walls, characterful doors and charming architectural details throughout, this is a home full of warmth and personality.

The village itself offers a strong sense of community alongside a range of everyday amenities including a village shop, public houses, a primary school and recreational facilities, whilst enjoying excellent transport links to nearby towns including Swadlincote, Burton upon Trent and Derby, as well as convenient access to the A38 and A50 for commuters.

The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with a range of shaker-style base units complemented by ample worktop space and includes an integrated oven, microwave, induction hob with extractor over, Belfast sink, drawers, and a useful pantry cupboard.

Leading on from the kitchen is a generously proportioned utility room offering additional wall and base units, a second sink and space for both a washing machine and tumble dryer, together with a convenient ground floor WC.

To the rear of the property is a formal dining room, providing an excellent space for family meals and entertaining. Beyond this is the fourth bedroom, a versatile room currently ideal as a guest bedroom, home office or study.
