PROPERTY
Magpie Cottage is a charming Grade II listed 17th Century cottage that displays numerous characterful features, not least a wealth of exposed timbers and beams.
Located opposite St Mary's church, the property opens to a cosy sitting room, with useful understairs storage cupboard. The sitting room provides access to the dining room, that also enjoys views of the church.
The kitchen features a range cooker, integrated dishwasher, and space for a free-standing fridge / freezer. Ample storage is provided by a good array of cupboards and drawers and the kitchen is completed with a ceramic sink.
Ascending the stairs to the first floor, the main bedroom is dual aspect, the second bedroom is a spacious double and both rooms benefit from built in storage space.
To the rear of the property there is a useful study for those that work from home (this room could be used as a third single bedroom if required) and the family bathroom completes the internal accommodation, and is comprised of a bath with shower mixer hose, toilet, handbasin set within a vanity unit and heated towel rail.
OUTSIDE
A rear gated entrance side alley (owned by neighbour) allows access to the courtyard garden, with raised decking.
To the rear the brick-built shed contains space and plumbing for a free-standing washing machine.
There is also an outside gardener's toilet in an adjoining structure.
SITUATION
Magpie Cottage is located in the highly desirable and picturesque village of Bures. The village sits upon either side of the River Stour which also represents the Essex / Suffolk border.
Bures has a good range of local facilities including a post office, doctor's surgery, primary school (rated 'good' at the latest Ofsted report), a village store / news agent, delicatessen, hair salon, and two public houses, as well as a soon to open tea shop.
The countryside surrounding Bures is particularly appealing and offers numerous walking routes and views of the Bures Dragon.
Further shopping and recreational facilities are available in the nearby market town of Sudbury which is about 5 miles away and Colchester which has a wide range of shopping, recreational and leisure amenities as well as some excellent schools in both the state and private sector.
For the commuter, Bures offers branch line rail service to London Liverpool Street via Marks Tey.
Direct mainline rail services are available from Colchester and Marks Tey taking approximately 55 minutes from the latter.
There are also frequent buses running to both Colchester and Sudbury.
