A part-timbered family home offering almost 4,500 sq. ft. of attractive accommodation arranged over two floors, sensitively combining modern amenities with features including exposed wall and ceiling beams and fireplaces.
Providing a stunning family and entertaining space, the accommodation flows from a wooden-floored reception hall with useful cloakroom. It includes a sitting room, a snug and a library with large bay with window seating, bespoke storage and feature fireplace with woodburner. Further is a drawing room with an open fireplace and bi-fold doors to an extensive conservatory with large sky lantern, two sets of bi-fold doors to the rear terrace and double-sided fireplace shared with a neighbouring family room with French doors to the terrace.
Completing the ground floor is a large kitchen/breakfast room with a range of wall and base units including a breakfast bar, modern integrated appliances, French doors to the terrace and a door to the driveway.
On the vaulted first floor the property offers a principal bedroom with Juliet balcony, dressing room and en suite shower room, and four further bedrooms, one with Juliet balcony, two with en suite shower rooms and one with en suite cloakroom. A laundry room and a contemporary family bathroom complete the facilities.
The house is approached through a five-bar gate over a gravel and block-paved driveway with a turning circle providing generous parking. This leads to the 2,100 sq. ft. outbuilding, which includes double and single garages, a double carport, multiple storage areas, and a one bedroom annexe.
The garden surrounding the property is laid mainly to lawn bordered by mature shrubs and trees and features an extensive raised paved terrace, ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining, the whole enjoying far-reaching views over neighbouring paddocks and surrounding countryside.

Services: Mains gas, electricity and water, private drainage. Centrally heated.

Nestled between the Stour and Colne Valley on the Essex/Suffolk border, the property sits on the fringes of the small village of Mount Bures which has a thriving community spirit and amenities including a church, nature reserve and popular public house, all surrounded by a network of public footpaths and riding routes.
The nearby market towns of Sudbury and Halstead and Colchester city offer a wide range of independent and high street shopping, supermarkets, medical services and entertainment/leisure facilities.
