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.

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.

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.

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.
