Beyton, Bury St. Edmunds

SUBSTANTIAL, MODERN EDGE-OF-VILLAGE HOME WITH HIGH-SPECIFICATION FEATURES, GARDENS & GARAGING

Bear Meadow is an exclusive collection of 10 highly individual detached homes sympathetically designed and constructed in varying Suffolk architectural vernaculars by acclaimed local housebuilders: Hopkins Homes. Substantial, light, spacious and contemporary, while at the same time the home has a traditional country house period feel. A high-level of attention was paid to the specification of the house, which is evident in details such as the bespoke handcrafted kitchen/dining room cabinetry and travertine tiles. Of particular note is the versatility of flexible separate living spaces with varying levels of connection that can be adjusted for a variety of uses, whether for exercising, studying or entertaining – all arranged around and that flow seamlessly from an impressive reception hall/dining space off the entrance hall. In addition to the separate Sitting Room and Snug, there is a downstairs cloakroom and useful utility room. Four bedrooms – one currently fitted as a dressing room – are served by an en-suite shower room and family bathroom – each with fitted wardrobe storage. Curtains and privacy blinds fitted throughout.

A pair of brick piers lead to a large gravel parking area with the additional asset of a double garage. The low-maintenance garden wraps around the rear of the property and is largely laid to lawn, fully enclosed with a substantial sun terrace. Garden shed. Mature specimen trees, shrubs and hedging line all borders of the property.
