The Property
Bethany Cottage is an individual and unique property, built in 1978, which has been extended and enhanced over recent years. The property is constructed out of brick and block work elevations underneath an interlocking tiled roof. When the house was constructed, attention was made to the garage foundations and this could accommodate a first floor extension if required. The garage could easily be included within the main accommodation and would make a superb master suite, subject to planning. In 2014, comprehensive improvements were made to the property including a stylish new kitchen, down stairs shower room, family bathroom and the stunning orangery. The kitchen benefits from two 'Neff' double ovens, a stainless steel sink and space for all appliances. The kitchen also has extensive unit and work top space providing lots of storage, with space for a breakfast table to the centre of the room. The sitting room faces west and has a lovely inset wood burning stove set upon a tiled hearth. A large bay window was added to the front sitting room to allow light to flood into the house and to make the most out of the wonderful view of Yaxley Church. Patio doors lead out from the sitting room into the orangery which is truly a special room. The room has views over the garden and is very spacious measuring 11ft x 22ft8. The three bedrooms are located to the first floor and comprise two double bedrooms and a single. All of the bedrooms have built in cupboards, windows and velux roof lights.
Outside
The house sits roughly in the middle of the plot with a large gravel driveway which leads up to the property, and the garage to the side. The driveway provides parking for a number of vehicles and could accommodate a caravan, camper or a small boat. The remaining front garden is laid to lawn with a variety of spring flowers sprouting through. The rear garden can be accessed from either side of the house and is roughly a square plot. The garden is mainly laid to lawn with a number of trees and hedging to the rear boundary. To the side of the property is a lovely patio area, directly next to the orangery making an excellent entertaining and dining area. A Guards Van with double doors makes a wonderful workshop/storage space. The garage has an up & over door, a doorway into the house and plenty of space for a fridge freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer.
