4 bed detached house for sale

Main Street, Yaxley PE7

£650,000 - £695,000 (Guide Price)
Nestled within the picturesque conservation area of Yaxley village, this exceptional four-bedroom detached Georgian cottage offers a rare combination of 18th-century character and 21st-century comfort. With origins traceable to the 1790s, the home has been thoughtfully reimagined to suit contemporary family life while preserving its timeless charm.

Extending to over 2,200 sq ft, the property is centred around a stunning open-plan living space, a beautifully light-filled kitchen, dining, and family room designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. Triple-aspect windows and roof lights flood the space with natural light, while bi-fold doors seamlessly connect indoors and out, opening onto both a sheltered courtyard, perfect as a suntrap for relaxed summer dining, and a generous decked terrace overlooking the garden.

The kitchen is both stylish and practical, featuring a central island with a breakfast bar, integrated appliances, and distinct split-level zoning that subtly defines each space while maintaining a sense of openness.

A well-appointed boot room provides a practical everyday entrance, complete with built-in storage and seating, while a cleverly designed Jack-and-Jill utility/shower room serves both the ground-floor bedroom and adjacent spaces, offering flexibility for guests, multi-generational living, or a private suite arrangement. A separate snug, with exposed brick chimney breast and decorative fireplace, offers a cosy retreat away from the main living area.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom forms a calm and private sanctuary, complete with a dressing room and en-suite shower room. Two further double bedrooms, both with built-in wardrobes, are served by a spacious family bathroom featuring both bath and separate shower.

Outside, the home continues to impress. A sweeping gravel driveway provides ample parking and includes an EV charging point, while mature hedgerows create a sense of privacy and arrival. To the rear, a substantial lawned garden stretches away from the house, bordered by established planting and enjoying open views across fields, offering a rare sense of space and tranquillity. A full-length pathway invites exploration to the far end of the garden, enhancing both usability and perspective.

Modern enhancements, including solar panels, battery storage, and underfloor heating across much of the home, ensure the property is as efficient as it is beautiful.
