West Street, Hinton St. George, Somerset, TA17

A very rare opportunity to acquire this fantastic, 3 bedroom detached home with further potential, enchanting walled-garden, private setting, double garage, parking and occupying, in our opinion, one the premier addresses in Hinton St George. No Onward Chain.


In our opinion, one of the most enviably situated homes in the prestigious and renowned village of Hinton St George. It can be found at the end of a no through road and occupies ground approaching 0.4 acres with part-walled garden, double garage, parking and hugely versatile accommodation. In brief the property comprises an entrance hall, WC, sitting room, garden room, kitchen, dining room and utility to the ground floor with three bedrooms and a family bathroom to the first floor. Belmont House offers any buyer a unique and exciting opportunity to create their dream home, whether that’s upgrading its current footprint or utilising the huge scope for extending (subject to the necessary consents). The triple aspect sitting room is a wonderful space to unwind throughout the seasons, particularly through the spring and summer thanks to views to the gardens which can be further appreciated in the garden room. The modern kitchen is well equipped, has room for a small dining table as well as French doors which lead out to the garden terrace, seamlessly uniting inside with out. The dining room will appeal to those who enjoy more formal hosting and could also be utilised as a music room, study or play-room, depending on one’s needs. The utility makes up the remainder of the ground floor. To the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms including an impressive, full-depth master bedroom which has a Juliette balcony surveying the divine gardens that lie beyond. The second bedroom has the luxury of its own ensuite whilst bedroom three would make a comfortable guest double or study. The family bathroom and has the advantage of a separate shower and bath. This really is rare opportunity to acquire an idyllic village home and will suit families and those wanting to live in a thriving community.

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 can be found at the very end of a no-through road and is approached by a driveway giving access to parking and the double garage. The grounds extend to almost 0.4 acres and are made up, in main, to the walled-gardens which can be found to the rear. They are laid to lawn and further complemented by a terrace seating area, expansive borders, pergolas and a variety of rare plants, trees and shrubs as well as an aluminium glazed greenhouse. Its an utterly magical setting for alfresco dining, whiling away the summer months and enjoying with family and friends.
