A rare chance to purchase a well-presented and homely detached woolaway bungalow. Set in a superb plot of 0.301 acres (0.121 hectares) it lies in one of our most sought-after villages, with far reaching views and lovely gardens.
The Property
A rare chance to purchase a well-presented and homely detached woolaway bungalow. Set in a superb plot of 0.301 acres (0.121 hectares) in one of our most sought-after villages, it benefits from far reaching views and lovely gardens including mature apple trees, vegetable plot and climber-clad arbour.
Currently it offers welcoming and homely accommodation with UPVC double glazing and mains gas central heating. To the front, a good size entrance porch of standard construction was added in 2003. There's ample room for storage or space for a coat rail, and this opens through into the original entrance hall. To one side is a bright and cosy southerly-facing sitting room with remote controlled real flame gas fire. The property was extended in 1979 at the rear, creating a larger kitchen / breakfast room and a further adjoining reception / dining room both overlooking the rear garden. The kitchen is fitted with a wide range of timber fronted storage cupboards including floor and wall mounted storage cupboards and drawers, wine rack and display units. There are spaces for appliances including room for a freestanding cooker, dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer. A useful side porch, also of standard construction was added in 2007 and opens to the front, ideal for unloading your weekly shopping. From the kitchen an opening leads through to the dining area which is plenty large enough to be a multi-functional room with space for your dining table and perhaps a comfy chair or two to make the most of the lovely outlook at the rear. To one corner of the dining room is a built-in cupboard which houses the gas Baxi boiler and hot water cylinder.
There are three bedrooms including two doubles, and a modernised shower room at the rear. This is fitted with a white suite including concealed cistern WC and adjacent vanity wash hand basin with associated storage. A spacious shower cubicle includes a mains shower with chrome ladder style towel radiator to one side.
Outside
Most rooms have lovely views over the well-tended gardens which are stocked with specimen trees and shrubs. There is a large lawned garden at the rear, with pretty climber-clad arbour, and areas of gravel and paved patio adjoining the property. From inside and out you can enjoy the far-reaching views to the north and west over the surrounding countryside. Gates lead through from the rear garden to the front, where there is a further generous lawned garden with mature shrubs and pathway leading to the front porch. In 2015 an extended driveway and larger than average single garage were created. The garage has an electrically operated up and over door and the additional driveway space provides plenty of parking. Beyond the driveway is an additional area of garden, with lovely mature fruit trees.
The property also benefits from the use of a private path opposite the property for residents of the Windyridge cul de sac, leading directly onto the village recreation ground.
Situation
Hinton St George is generally regarded as one of the most sought-after villages in the area. The village centre is a real gem and much of it is designated a Conservation Area. There is a lovely pub “The Lord Poulett Arms”, excellent village shop, and a small and well-respected Primary School. The surrounding countryside offers plenty of public footpaths and bridleways, and the village has its very own Jubilee Wood, with over 3000 trees, shrubs and apple trees. Hinton St George lies within easy reach of the market town of Crewkerne with its mainline station and Waitrose supermarket. The A30 and A303 are also within c.5-10 minutes’ drive of the property.
Services
Mains electricity, gas, water and drainage are connected.
Broadband - Superfast broadband is available.
Mobile phone coverage - Network coverage is likely to be available outdoors from all four major providers, however indoors it may be limited.
