3 Bedroom Detached House

Quote Ref: DP0213 -This property in Church Road is a beautifully presented three-storey, three-bedroom semi-detached home, occupying a delightful rural position in the popular village of Bulmer, close to the historic market town of Sudbury. The property combines a wealth of charm with stylish modern finishes and offers particularly generous gardens, extensive parking and several useful outbuildings.

The property is entered through a composite front door into a welcoming entrance porch and hallway, which features an attractive patterned tiled floor and oak internal doors. Stairs rise to the first floor with useful storage beneath, while doors provide access to the cloakroom, sitting room and kitchen.

The ground-floor cloakroom is fitted with a low-level WC and a circular countertop wash basin with a vintage-style tap, set upon a characterful vanity unit. An obscured double-glazed window overlooks the front aspect, complemented by tiled flooring.

The kitchen is attractively fitted with a range of wall and base units beneath solid wooden work surfaces. There is a Rangemaster triple-oven range cooker, space and plumbing for a washing machine and a one-and-a-half-bowl stainless-steel sink with mixer tap. Engineered oak flooring extends throughout the kitchen, while a double-glazed window with fitted shutters overlooks the front.

 An opening leads into the impressive dining area, which flows seamlessly into the principal sitting room to create a wonderfully sociable, open-plan family space. Flooded with natural light from rooflights and a wide set of bi-folding doors, this room enjoys a lovely outlook and direct access to the rear patio and garden. The engineered oak flooring continues throughout, while a wood-burning stove set upon a tiled hearth creates an attractive focal point.

The first-floor landing has engineered wood flooring and a useful built-in cupboard positioned above the stairs. Doors lead to two bedrooms, the family bathroom and a versatile connecting room with stairs rising to the second-floor bedroom.

The family bathroom is beautifully appointed with a four-piece suite comprising a tiled shower enclosure, freestanding bath, low-level WC and circular wash basin mounted upon a traditional vanity unit. The room is completed by patterned tiled flooring, a heated towel rail and a double-glazed window with fitted shutters overlooking the front.

The first bedroom on this floor is a generous double room positioned at the front of the property, with a double-glazed window and a range of built-in wardrobes. The second is another well-proportioned double bedroom, enjoying views across the rear garden and benefitting from a built-in storage cupboard.

The connecting room provides an extremely useful and flexible space, ideally suited to use as a home office, study, dressing room or occasional guest room. A staircase rises from here to the converted loft.

Occupying the second floor is an impressive principal bedroom with two Velux windows allowing plenty of natural light into the room. Built-in wardrobes and additional storage have been cleverly incorporated, with some areas of restricted head height adding to the character of this attractive space.

Outside, the property is approached over a substantial tarmac driveway providing off-road parking for approximately six vehicles. An adjacent lawn is complemented by established shrubs and planted borders, while a paved pathway leads to the front entrance. Double gates provide access to additional parking at the side and continue through to the rear garden.

The bi-folding doors open onto a paved terrace with a covered pergola, creating an excellent space for outdoor dining, entertaining and barbecues. From here, the garden opens into a substantial lawn surrounded by an excellent variety of established shrubs and landscaped borders.

There are several useful outbuildings, including a workshop fitted with shelving and storage units. An adjoining summerhouse benefits from power and lighting and would make an ideal home office, studio or gym.

A pathway continues through the impressive 135ft garden, passing a circular swimming pool, which is available by separate negotiation. The garden extends for a considerable distance, with lawns positioned to either side and timber fencing defining the boundaries. Towards the rear are raised vegetable beds, additional storage sheds and timber stores, together with a small orchard containing a selection of plum and apple trees.

With its stylish interior, open-plan living space, extensive parking, outbuildings and exceptional garden, 3 Church Road offers an appealing country lifestyle within convenient reach of Sudbury.
