Description

**GUIDE PRICE £750,000 - £775,000 **
A stunning extended five bedroom detached house situated within the highly sought after village of Bures.

The property is situated in the highly sought-after village of Bures, straddling the Essex and Suffolk border and set within the picturesque Stour Valley. The village offers a strong sense of community along with a range of local amenities including a primary school, village shops, public houses and a branch line railway station providing links to Colchester and London Liverpool Street.

Surrounded by unspoilt countryside, Bures is ideally placed for those seeking a balance between rural living and accessibility. The nearby market towns of Sudbury and Colchester provide a broader range of shopping, leisure and educational facilities, while the area's riverside walks, rolling landscapes and scenic viewpoints make it particularly attractive to outdoor enthusiasts and families alike.

Occupying an elevated and enviable position with far-reaching views across the River Stour, this impressive five-bedroom detached residence enjoys a highly desirable setting within comfortable walking distance of the centre of the well-regarded parish of Bures. The property has undergone a comprehensive programme of refurbishment and improvement and is presented to an exceptional standard throughout, seamlessly blending contemporary design with high-quality finishes.

The accommodation is arranged around a welcoming entrance hall featuring luxury tiled flooring and a striking glass-fronted bespoke wine rack. A ground-floor shower room is positioned just off the hallway, providing everyday practicality for modern family living. The dual-aspect sitting room forms the principal reception space, featuring UPVC casement windows with plantation shutters to the front elevation, an electric fireplace offering both heat and ambient lighting, and bi-folding doors opening directly onto the rear garden.

At the heart of the home lies an impressive open-plan kitchen and dining area, beautifully appointed with quartz work surfaces, a double oven, five-ring hob with extractor, full-height fridge/freezer, double Butler sink and integrated window seating. The kitchen enjoys casement windows to the front, double doors to the rear garden and a charming corner wood-burning stove. The adjoining dining area is bathed in natural light from casement and corner windows, complemented by a bespoke corner seat, creating an ideal space for both everyday living and entertaining. A door from the kitchen provides internal access to the garage, which also features doors opening to the front elevation.

A secondary staircase leads to the principal bedroom suite, which benefits from a dedicated dressing room with integrated lighting, bespoke fitted wardrobes and a high-specification en-suite shower room. The main staircase rises to a first-floor landing with contemporary glass balustrade, providing access to four further well-proportioned double bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom.

Externally, the property enjoys enclosed rear gardens with an open and unobstructed outlook, an outdoor kitchen area ideal for al fresco entertaining, an external store with power and lighting, and gated side access.
