Hinton View, Sturminster Newton DT10

A substantial and extended four-bedroom detached home with three reception rooms, a double garage, driveway parking for four cars and a private rear garden backing onto a nature reserve. It is offered to the market with the added benefit of No Onward Chain. Occupying a corner plot within a quiet cul de sac and extending to approximately 138 sq m (1,489 sq ft), this much-loved family home provides generous and versatile accommodation, with excellent scope for a new owner to update and personalise to their own style.

Having been owned by the same family for many years, the property has been extended between the house and the garage, creating particularly spacious ground floor accommodation. The accommodation includes a double aspect sitting room with multi fuel burner, a dining room, a further double aspect room ideal as a study or office, a traditional kitchen, a utility room and a downstairs WC. Upstairs there are four well-proportioned bedrooms, all with built-in storage, along with a family bathroom and an en-suite to the main bedroom. Outside, there is driveway parking for four vehicles, a double garage with light and power, and a good sized, completely private rear garden enjoying a south easterly aspect.
