Beautifully presented home that has been completely and sympathetically renovated in recent years. Formerly one dwelling and divided in the early 19th century into two, as its much earlier Tudor jettied façade alludes - a clever medieval invention to gain more space upstairs whilst a reflection of the wealth and status of the homeowner. The substantial ground floor rooms with high ceilings flow seamlessly from the separate entrance hall, through to the impressive living room, open-plan and vaulted kitchen/breakfast room and to the garden room retreat. Of particular note is the impressive stone and brick working open fireplace, sympathetically converted attic room with crown posts and Cathedral views from the upper floors. Benefit of a ground floor shower/cloakroom and cellar.

Reception hall with Stairs to first floor, doors to cellar and the sitting room. The sitting room impresses with its grand proportions, heavy chamfered beam, array of exposed wood ceiling joists, pair of tall secondary glazed sash windows. Half glazed door to open-plan kitchen/breakfast/dining area. Ground floor Shower room/Cloakroom with vaulted ceiling and skylight. The suite comprises fully glazed shower cubicle with electric shower, pedestal basin and wc. Open-Plan Kitchen/Breakfast/Living Room The seamless flow of living space continues through to the relaxed open-plan kitchen/breakfast/dining room with a delightful pine wood floor. Part double-height vaulted aspect incorporates two skylights that adds to a lofty appeal. The kitchen area is arranged in a u-shaped layout with an extensive range of matt grey base and wall-mounted cabinetry. Black and white mosaic tiled splashbacks wrap around the work surfaces with task lighting above and a one and half stainless steel sink with mixer tap while a sash window provides a courtyard garden view. Integrated appliances include: below counter fridge and freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, stainless steel oven, grill with four ring induction hob and stainless steel cooker hood. Walk-in larder.

First Floor: Landing - Stairs rising from reception hall to land area with storage cupboard / linen store. Stair to converted attic room. Doors to: Bedroom one - Pair of secondary glazed west-facing sash windows. The focal point is the former fireplace recess of striking stone jambs with mouldings continuing across the bressummer. Beside the rounded back of the chimney stack are recessed shelves and a blocked doorway which formerly led to No.3. Bedroom two is currently setup as a holistic therapy treatment room, a slim concealed door built in the studwork opens into the space with a pair of casement windows: with Cathedral views. Bedroom three has a sash window with secondary glazing to front aspect. Built-in wardrobe. Bathroom - A pleasant curio in the well-appointed bathroom is the showcased exposed wattle and daub retained during restoration. The suite comprises a panelled bath with rain shower and adjustable shower hose attachment, pedestal basin, wc, tiled floor with part mosaic tiled walls and exposed timber studwork, spotlights and a heated towel rail.
Second Floor: Bedroom four / attic Room - spotlit crown posts of the home take centre stage while supporting a wealth of exposed timber. Stone carved initials and date pay homage to the previous owners' sensitive restoration of the space. Dual aspect with a pair of small characterful windows to the side - one of which creates a vantage point towards Hatter Street - and a further two east-facing casement windows. The perfect den, bedroom four is currently setup with a writing desk to make the most of the Cathedral and Norman Tower views.
Cellar/Utility Room - A smart brick stair leads down to a well lit cellar space divided into two cells, currently used as a utility / storage space. High ceilings. Rubble and flint walls with period render.

Outside - Courtyard Garden: The courtyard garden provides a joyful oasis in the centre of town enclosed by its attractive brick and flint walls with niches and well planted beds that play host to wisteria, rose, climbing jasmine, clematis and rockery with alpines. When the neighbouring tree is not in full leaf, the Cathedral millennium tower can be seen. Flagstones, outdoor tap, lighting and water feature.

Location - The property is perfectly situated in the much sought after medieval grid. It is also close to uniquely independent shops (as well as well known high street stores, and including a Waitrose supermarket and Marks and Spencer food hall). Combined with the beautiful parks, cinemas, theatres and restaurants the town is famously known as the 'jewel in the crown of Suffolk'. The house is close to everything that gives Bury its distinct reputation for bringing together the best of old and new, with its rich history and its broad range of venues for dining, shopping and relaxing. These include an impressive fresh produce market every Wednesday and Saturday and the famous burgeoning Christmas market which features artisans, world cuisine stalls, Victorian funfair attractions and a carol service. The town is renowned for its beautiful Cathedral and for the leafy and floral Abbey Gardens with its impressive medieval ruins, all just a short stroll down from the colourful boutiques and cafe culture of the town centre.
