The Park, Great Barton, Bury St. Edmunds

This stylish, contemporary and highly individual detached property enjoys a delightful location within The Park, which is arguably one of the most desirable addresses in the sought-after village of Great Barton. Designed by the well-regarded Brown & Scarlett Architects and built to a high standard approximately 15 years ago, the property offers a substantial level of particularly spacious accommodation extending to more than 3,000 sq ft. It would easily suit buyers seeking a large family home or dual-generation living. The current vendors have made considerable improvements, including a smart three-bay cart-lodge garage and a stunning re-fitted “live-in” kitchen/dining/family room in 2018.

The property features superb open-plan style living accommodation presented to a high standard, comprising a huge reception hall/flexible reception room with door to the cloakroom and double doors opening into the spacious dual-aspect sitting room with fireplace and bay window with French doors to the gardens. The vaulted kitchen/dining/family room is a fantastic space for entertaining, with a striking fitted kitchen complemented by quality integrated appliances, an Aga, central island with hob and extractor, and French doors opening to the west-facing garden. Adjacent to the kitchen is a separate utility and shower room, and the ground-floor accommodation is completed by a spacious dual-aspect bedroom with en-suite.

On the first floor, the landing - with airing cupboard and access to a large loft space—leads to three comfortable bedrooms, including the dual-aspect principal bedroom with en-suite. The generous family bathroom, with bath and separate shower enclosure, serves the remaining two bedrooms and completes the first-floor accommodation.

Outside - The property is approached via a driveway providing parking and turning space for up to 10 cars, leading to a more recently built triple-bay cart-lodge garage.
The wrap-around gardens are mostly laid to lawn and include a variety of mature trees and shrubs. Two large paved terraces, situated off the kitchen and the sitting room, create ideal areas for outdoor entertaining and al-fresco dining, while enjoying the delightful south-westerly aspect.

Location - The property enjoys a secluded setting set back from a small lane known as 'The Park' so called because the site was originally in the grounds of a magnificent hall 'Barton Hall', owned by the Bunbury Family. Great Barton is a sought-after village situated approximately three miles to the North-East of Bury St Edmunds.
