Description

An outstanding and unique village home in one of South Somerset's most desirable locations, offering immaculately presented accommodation, a stunning vaulted living room with exposed beams, generous bedroom sizes, beautiful level gardens and the significant advantage of no onward chain. Early viewing is strongly recommended.

A rare opportunity to acquire an immaculately presented and highly individual detached bungalow, enviably positioned within the heart of the ever-popular village of Hinton St George, one of South Somerset's most sought-after locations. Offered to the market with no onward chain, this unique home combines generous, light-filled accommodation with a superb level garden, creating an exceptional proposition for buyers seeking village living at its finest.

The property is beautifully maintained throughout and enjoys a wonderful sense of space, with the standout feature being the impressive vaulted sitting room, where exposed beams and a striking glazed elevation flood the room with natural light while providing a seamless connection to the garden. Well-proportioned bedrooms, versatile living space and attractive outdoor areas further enhance the appeal of this superb home.

A welcoming entrance hall provides access to the principal accommodation and immediately sets the tone for the quality and presentation found throughout.

The heart of the home is the magnificent dual-aspect sitting room, featuring a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and an impressive expanse of glazing overlooking the rear garden. This wonderful room enjoys a bright and airy atmosphere and offers ample space for both relaxation and entertaining.

Open to the living area is a spacious dining space, creating a sociable arrangement ideal for modern living. The well-appointed fitted kitchen is attractively fitted with a comprehensive range of units, generous work surfaces and integrated appliances.

The principal bedroom is a particularly generous double room enjoying views towards the garden and benefitting from a stylish en-suite shower room and sliding patio doors out on the garden. A second excellent-sized double bedroom provides further comfortable accommodation and is served by a modern family bathroom fitted with a bath with shower over and also benefits from patio doors to the rear.

A utility room with a wall of built in cupboards and sink offers practicality and has been created out of what was a third bedroom - If extra space is required, this could be fairly easily turned back into a bedroom.

Throughout, the property has been exceptionally well cared for and is presented in superb decorative order, allowing a purchaser to move straight in and enjoy all that this special home has to offer.

Link to Brochure

Hinton St George village centre comprises mainly period houses, built in local honey-coloured hamstone, which has preserved a special character through little change over the centuries, due to careful consideration of the villagers and the Poulett family, in whose hands it rested until the 1960s.

The village has a post office with general store, a well-known Gastro pub - the Lord Poulett Arms, church, primary school and village hall. The village has rural nature, with many varied countryside walks in the locality. Despite this, the communications links are excellent with the A303 approximately 3 miles to the north, leading to the M3 into London and the M5 to the west giving easy access to the north and south west peninsula. Rail connections are available at Crewkerne and Taunton/Castle Cary to London Waterloo and London Paddington respectively. Leisure facilities and shopping may be found in the local market towns of Crewkerne (4 miles), Ilminster (6 miles), Yeovil (14 miles), south coast at Lyme Regis (19 miles). The area is well served by independent schools such as Perrott Hill School, Hazlegrove, Sherborne, Millfield and Port Regis; there are racecourses at Wincanton and Taunton and several golf courses within a 10 mile radius.

The property occupies a delightful plot with a lovely level rear garden, a particularly attractive feature that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. Predominantly laid to lawn and bordered by mature planting, hedging and established shrubs, the garden enjoys a high degree of privacy while providing an excellent space for families, keen gardeners and outdoor entertaining.

A substantial paved terrace adjoins the rear of the property and takes full advantage of the outlook back towards the striking glazed elevation of the home, making it the perfect spot for al fresco dining and summer gatherings.

The gardens are beautifully maintained and complement the property perfectly, enhancing the sense of tranquillity and space. The setting within this desirable village further elevates the appeal, offering purchasers the opportunity to enjoy a peaceful countryside lifestyle whilst remaining within easy reach of nearby towns and amenities.
