Norton, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk

A substantial detached family home occupying a generous plot with exceptional countryside views, extending to over 2,000 sq ft and backing directly onto open farmland.

The accommodation is centred around an impressive 22ft sitting room featuring a Yorkstone fireplace and large picture windows that flood the space with natural light. French doors lead through to a spacious sun lounge overlooking the gardens and countryside beyond, creating an ideal space to relax throughout the year. A separate family room with wood-burning stove provides a more intimate reception space and connects directly to the study, making it ideal for those working from home. A further reception room currently serves as a dining room but offers excellent flexibility as a ground floor fifth bedroom if required.

The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of shaker-style units complemented by integrated Bosch appliances including a double oven, microwave, dishwasher and electric hob. Ample preparation space and practical tiled flooring make it well suited to everyday family life, whilst a useful utility/garden room beyond the garage provides additional storage and laundry facilities with direct access outside.

On the first floor are four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys its own en-suite shower room, whilst the remaining bedrooms are served by a spacious family bathroom incorporating both a corner bath and separate shower. Several bedrooms benefit from far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside and useful eaves storage enhances practicality throughout.

Outside, the property occupies a generous plot with extensive lawned gardens backing directly onto open farmland, providing an exceptional sense of space, privacy and uninterrupted rural views. Paved terraces offer ideal areas for outdoor entertaining, whilst an extensive driveway provides parking for numerous vehicles and leads to the attached garage.
