The Property

Accommodation

Inside

Ground Floor
The property is approached from the pavement via a wrought iron gate that opens to a path leading to the front door. This opens into a useful porch with the original 1950s door, opening to the hall. From here stairs rise to the first floor and a door opens into a good sized L shaped sitting room with two windows overlooking the front garden and plenty of space for a dining table and chairs. There are built in shelves and cupboards plus a gas fire with back boiler for the central heating and hot water. A door from the sitting room opens into the a nicely proportioned kitchen/breakfast room with outlook to the rear. It is fitted with a range of modern, Shaker style soft closing units consisting of floor and eye level cupboards plus separate drawer unit. There is plenty of wood effect work surfaces - including a breakfast bar - with laminate work surfaces and one and half bowl stainless steel sink and drainer with swan neck mixer tap. The fridge, washing machine and dishwasher are included in the sale plus the built in electric oven and ceramic hob. There is also the airing cupboard housing the hot water cylinder and an understairs storage cupboard plus door opening to the rear of the house.

First Floor
Stairs rise and curve up to the galleried landing with window to the rear taking in a view of the woods at Hinton St Mary. There is a fitted storage cupboard with shelves and access to the boarded loft space with drop down ladder and fitted with light and power point. There are three very good sized bedrooms, all with some degree of rural outlook. The bathroom is fitted with a WC, bath and wall mounted wash hand basin.

Outside

The good sized front garden is laid to lawn and enclosed by mature hedgerow. A picket fence to the side of the house divides the garden from the rear of the property where there is a range of outbuildings. These include a gardener's WC (1.80 m x 0.99 m/5'11'' x 3'3'') plus an attached store (1.12 m x 0.99 m/3'8'' x 3'3'') and a separate purpose built shed with light and power (2.79 m x 2.03 m/9'2'' x 6'8''). Behind the shed is a further part of the garden, which offers excellent space and a blank canvas for one's own landscaping design - currently needs some management. There is currently no parking with the property but subject to the necessary permissions, there may be the opportunity to create parking at the front of the house.
