Description

A most attractive and exquisitely presented,
Hamstone barn conversion situated on a quiet cul-de-sac with two double bedrooms, two shower rooms
and garage.

Occupying an enviable position within the picturesque and highly desirable village of Hinton St George, this exceptional detached bungalow offers a rare combination of character, quality and
modern convenience. Beautifully reimagined through a comprehensive renovation in 2017, the property has been thoughtfully updated throughout while retaining a wealth of charm
and individuality.

Arranged entirely on one level, the property provides over 1000 sq.ft. of light-filled accommodation, making it an ideal home for
those seeking the ease of single-storey living without compromise.

The centrepiece is the impressive open-plan living/dining room,
where vaulted ceilings and striking exposed timber trusses create a wonderful sense of space and character. Natural light pours in
through multiple aspects, enhancing the warm and inviting atmosphere.

The stylish kitchen/diner is fitted with a contemporary range of units and integrated appliances, offering a practical yet sociable space for everyday living and entertaining. The same attention to detail continues throughout the property, with modern fixtures and
fittings blending seamlessly with period-inspired features.

There are two generous double bedrooms, including a superb principal bedroom with en-suite shower room. Both the principal lending a distinctive character that sets the property apart from more conventional bungalows. A contemporary shower room serves the remainder of the accommodation.

A notable feature of the renovation was the installation of underfloor heating throughout, providing an efficient and comfortable heating system, while the property also benefits from
the convenience of all mains services.

Hinton St George is one of South Somerset's most sought-after villages, renowned for its attractive honey-coloured hamstone architecture and strong community spirit. Village amenities include
a shop/post office, primary school, church, village hall and the acclaimed Lord Poulett Arms, while excellent road and rail links provide easy access across the South West and to London.

Externally, the bungalow enjoys attractive, enclosed gardens offering a good degree of privacy and ideal spaces for outdoor dining and relaxation. In addition, there is an associated garage and private parking in front of the garage.

Set within one of South Somerset's most sought-after villages, renowned for its attractive streetscape, community spirit and beautiful surrounding countryside, this is a rare opportunity to purchase a characterful yet low-maintenance home in a peaceful village setting.

Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.
