A superb, modern and spacious 3 double bedroom detached home with parking, two garages, views to the front and rear, backing onto farmland and situated on an exclusive cul-de-sac of just 5 properties in the renowned and ever sought after village of Hinton St. George.


A great chance to acquire this delightful three bedroom detached home with garage, office, bike shed, pretty garden, fabulous views, parking and situated in the prestigious and highly desirable village of Hinton St George. In brief the property comprises an entrance hall, dining room, kitchen, utility/pantry/store, WC and shower room, sitting room and conservatory to the ground floor with three bedrooms and a family bathroom to the first floor. Windwhistle has been wonderfully modernised and reconfigured to create the very best of contemporary living whilst retaining a real sense of warmth and intimacy. The kitchen and dining room have been cleverly combined to allow for open-plan living – great for families and those who like to entertain. It is noticeably light and airy with views over the garden and fields beyond at the rear. The large sitting room is the perfect setting to unwind, with a central wood-burner offering an attractive focal point as well as practical warmth. It leads directly into the conservatory/garden room which has been upgraded in recent times with tiles and insulated ceiling rather than the traditional glass roof. It’s a relaxing space to watch the seasons unfold with double doors leading out onto the patio terrace, seamlessly blending inside with out. At the slightly lower level a really useful utility/pantry area can be found. It has been decked out with plenty of shelving to accommodate for additional storage needs. There are three, well-proportioned and spacious double bedrooms which all have the luxury of fitted wardrobes. In turn, they are all serviced by the family bathroom. It is from the first floor that one can really appreciate the views over the stunning village of Hinton St George. The garage has up and over doors to the front and back and, subject to the necessary consents, could be combined with the utility to make further accommodation. The studio can be found in the garden, this could be utilised in a number of ways including workshop and gym, or as an office for those needing to work from home. Again, subject to any necessary consents, this has the possibility of becoming a self-contained annexe. Windwhistle will undoubtedly appeal to families, retirees and those simply wanting to position themselves in one of the area’s most renowned and popular villages.

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 is one of only five on this exclusive crescent and is approached by a private driveway leading to off-road parking, front garden and access to both the garage and property. The main garden can be found to the rear and is laid to lawn and patio and further complemented by potted plants, shrubs and colourful flora. It is completely enclosed, ideal for those with children and/or pets and almost completely private. It backs onto to local farmland, not only giving it the feel of an extension to the garden but also an awesome sense of space and freedom. It’s an enviable setting for enjoying with family and friends and a magical setting for a spot of alfresco dining through the warmer months.
