Eastgate Street, Bury St. Edmunds

One of a pair of attractive Grade II Listed Town houses, Mid 17th century with later alterations. Construction - Timber-framed with render above a high brick and flint plinth. Elevated above street level at the front.

The entrance door is approached up a flight of steps from street level. There is also a small timber barn-style door within the plinth, to the cellar - only half below ground (formerly used as a stable, believed to once house a working Donkey!)

Eastgate St is one of the main old thoroughfares into the historic centre of Bury St Edmunds. From here you can walk through the beautiful Abbey Gardens and Cathedral grounds on an easy walk into town.

All the town centre facilities, shopping, entertainment, rail station etc are close at hand. The A14 is also close by for ease of access out to surrounding towns and further afield.
