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 has a large, oak framed double carport providing ample parking for at least two cars. The enclosed rear garden is laid to patio, lawn and block paving (which could be used as further parking thanks to gated rear access). Its south-west facing aspect will appeal to those who enjoy sitting out through the warmer months whilst the patio is a great setting for entertaining and alfresco dining. For those with children and/or pets, the garden is fully enclosed. The parking, garden and views come at a premium in Hinton St. George – discerning buyers take note!
