Description - Halls are delighted with instructions to offer Bethany in Whittington for sale by private treaty.
Bethany is a mature detached bungalow which has been comprehensively extended and modernised to now stand as glorious edge-of-village home, providing around 1,400 sq ft of impeccably presented and Scandinavian-inspired living accommodation all situated across one flexibly arranged floor.
The property nestles within generous gardens which extend, in all, to around 0.22ac and perch in an elevated position above a ha-ha which overlooks open fields directly to the south.

The Property - Bethany began life as a fairly traditional 1960's detached bungalow but has evolved, via extension and renovation works, into a substantial and exquisitely presented three/four bedroom home which could readily serve the needs of families and mature buyers alike.
The property is principally accessed via a covered external porch which opens into an Entrance Hallway, from where a door opens immediately to the right into a wonderfully sociable Living Room which boasts a range of picture windows that look south across the gardens and the open scenery beyond, with the room offering flexible space for furnishing situated around a multi-fuel burner.
Inset within the Living Room is a versatile home Office which presents possibilities for use as a fourth/Guest Bedroom.
Positioned to the west of the Living Room is a spacious Kitchen/Dining Room illuminated by natural light fed via a roof lantern and a nearly full-length window which capitalises on the southerly aspect.
The room serves as the heart of the home and offers a contemporary space for entertaining and more intimate family moments, with a modern fitted kitchen positioned before a planned seating space, alongside an inset Utility Room with Cloakroom.
Turning left from the Entrance Hall, access is provided into three comfortably-sized Bedrooms, two of which benefit from dual-aspect windows and integrated storage space;with a well appointed family Bathroom positioned centrally and serving the rooms.
The property offers scope for further extension into an existing Loft Room (LA consent permitting).
Gardens - The gardens of Bethany are a particular delight and extend, in all, to around 0.22ac whilst enjoying a due south aspect, allowing the property to enjoy a full range of light throughout the day.
The property is accessed via double-opening timber gates set within brick pillars, which open onto a substantial parking area situated to the front of the property, this allowing space for the parking of a number of vehicles.
Expanses of well-maintained lawn, interspersed with established floral beds, encompass the property before meeting to the south at an attractive Indian sandstone paved patio area, which lies immediately beyond a door leading out from the Living Room, thus allowing a seamless transition between the internal and external elements of the home and offering a superb spot for al fresco dining or simply enjoying the calibre of the setting.
The southern aspect of the gardens abut open fields by way of a ha-ha, allowing for elevated and extended views across open fields.
The gardens further feature a substantial timber outbuilding which could serve a variety of onwards usages.
