ApproachSet in the hamstone village of West Chinnock, this property can be found on Lower Street. Main entrance opens to an asphalt driveway with additional opening as the fences are actually further gates, allowing larger vehicles to park. The front door is under a storm porch and provides access to the living space. To the side is the front part of the double-ended garage with an electronic roller-door which is extra high and wide. To the side of this is a pedestrian gated access to the rear garden which provides access for oil deliveries.

Living SpaceFront entrance with stairs to the first floor and internal timber and part glazed door opening to; Living Area: To the front is the main seating/evening area featuring a large front aspect window, this space easily accommodates several sofas and is designed as an entertainment/media centre with an area to plug surround sound etc in. The area then extends to the rear with a walk through which links the kitchen with an internal door and open window, through to the dining area to the rear of this space. With a little thought, this could be easily adapted to many different requirements. The kitchen is a large galley type and offers lots of storage, worktop space and a wide range of white goods. This is a more traditional functional kitchen, however, with a little bit of imagination you could easily expand into the extra living room space and make this a main feature room for the home. At the rear is a handy downstairs cloakroom with coats area and finally, a large conservatory is attached to the back of the house.

UpstairsEmerging onto the landing, this is where the house splits into two distinct areas. Turning to your right brings you to the Principal Bedroom which is very spacious and comes with front/rear aspect windows, storage and your own private ensuite. Two more double bedrooms come with built-in double wardrobes whilst the 4th bedroom is a large single and also comes with built-in storage. Finally, the bathroom is a good size, large enough to cater for the needs of family and guests with a carron whirlpool bath/shower. Both the main house and extension have lofts, both have ladders and lighting, whilst only the original loft has some boarding.

Driveway and Double Fronted GarageThe driveway is large enough to accommodate many vehicles and has been designed to house custom vehicles with secure tie points and electric sockets as well as a front fence which opens in a gate like fashion to provide larger vehicle access. The through garage is a great space, whether you want to stock it up with vehicles or simply have extra space for storage or somewhere the kids can play where its dry and safe as there is an access door directly from the kitchen.

Rear GardenThe current owners have re-fenced the entire garden with concrete base and posts and infill timber making this an easy to maintain, secure area. A driveway access winds through the garden, passing the lawn area with covered building. The space is ideal for modern families who nowadays don't have the time to maintain acres of land but still enjoy getting outdoors when the weather is suitable.

WorkshopIf you are into engineering, home office, studio, motor sport or a bit of a petrol head, this is where you will spend most of your time. It has lights, power, a toilet and a sink. It's a great space to keep the husband and kids out of the house and busy. We will be able to show you around in detail during your visit. Suffice to say, if you want a secure workshop for your pride and joy, whether its a few cars, boats, train or as I have seen in a few homes in the area, bearing in mind how close we are to Leonardos and Yeovilton, you are building your own plane or helicopter, you won't be disappointed. Workshop size:- 6.6m wide x 9m long x 4m high.
