3 Bed Terraced House For Sale

A rare opportunity to purchase a deceptively roomy and low-maintenance modern home, lying in the heart of one of our most picturesque and sought-after villages.

The Property - Set in the heart of the village and overlooking the historic village cross and pretty street scene, this modern end of terrace house offers good internal proportions. This is quite a rare chance to obtain a great value modern property in this location, particularly with the added benefit of a garage and it would make an ideal home for those wanting less maintenance and an easily managed courtyard style garden. The properties were built on the site of a the former George and Crown hotel, hence their name and convenient position in the conservation area, within walking distance of the village amenities.

The front door opens into a surprisingly spacious hall with turning staircase to the first floor and understairs storage, and a handy downstairs cloakroom. To one side, a glazed panel obtains borrowed light from the southerly facing sitting room which extends across the front of the house and benefits from a Minster stone fireplace with built-in shelving to one alcove. Across the hall is a kitchen with large opening to the dining room creating an open-plan and practical space. The kitchen is fitted with a range of painted units comprising floor and wall mounted storage cupboards and drawers, display cabinet and shelving. The work surfaces incorporate a one and a half bowl single drainer sink unit with mixer tap, and a pleasant outlook to the pretty street at the front. There is space for your washing machine beneath, and to one side a recess houses the wall mounted Vaillant gas boiler. To one side is a useful built-in larder cupboard. The kitchen floor is tiled and this flows through to the dining area, where UPVC double glazed french windows open to the courtyard at the rear.

On the first floor, the landing includes a large walk-in storage cupboard with shelving and access to the loft via hatch. There's also built-in display shelving to one side. Across the front of the property the principal bedroom is very spacious and incredibly light and airy with two front facing windows making the most of the natural light and the lovely views over the village. A good range of built-in storage includes wardrobes with sliding doors, and a further linen cupboard with slatted shelving, all with more storage cupboards above.

The two further bedrooms also have the benefit of built-in storage cupboards / wardrobes. A modern shower room is fitted with bright white suite including Heritage wash hand basin, close coupled WC and double shower unit with Mira mains shower. There's also a chrome ladder towel radiator to one side and fully tiled walls for ease.

As the property is located in the conservation area, the stone mullion windows are secondary glazed on the front elevations with UPVC double glazing to the rear. Hinton St George is one of few villages locally on mains gas and therefore the house also benefits from gas central heating.

Outside - To the front of the property, the garden is paved with small beds to either side of the front door including a mature wisteria, dahlia and shrubs. The rear has been designed for ease of maintenance with curved paved pathway, gravelled beds and shrubs all enclosed by solid walls creating a sheltered courtyard with room to sit out and potter. Storage sheds adjoining the house include areas for garden storage with shelving and bin / recycling storage. There is also an outside tap. A gateway leads out to the rear, which in turn leads to the garage block via the pavement. The property owns a single garage in the block - it is the fourth garage in counting from the right.

Situation - Hinton St George is generally regarded as one of the most sought-after villages in the area. The village is made up primarily of period houses and cottages, built using the local hamstone - renowned for its mellow colour and visual appeal.

The village centre is a real gem and much of it is designated a Conservation Area. The village is peaceful and carries no through traffic of any significance. There is a lovely pub “The Lord Poulett Arms”, excellent village shop, and an active 14th century church. All of which lie within walking distance. For those with small children there is also a small and well-respected Primary School and Pre-School within the village. The surrounding countryside offers plenty of public footpaths and bridleways, and the property lies close to the village’s 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.
