The post office is a little ways from here.
Literal
Post-office [topic-は] here-from little-of place [at-に] exist-[polite-ます].
ここからちょっとのところ ('a little ways from here') uses the adverb ちょっと ('a little, a bit') in an unusual noun-modifier position — ちょっとのところ literally 'a place of a little [distance].' The ところ here means 'place, point' as a vague spatial referent. The whole construction is casual-informal even in polite speech.
