About this home
A beautifully presented family house on the edge of Moreton Hall, with 3 reception rooms, 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and double garage.
Situated within the popular Moreton Hall area of Bury St Edmunds, 18 Cely Road is a substantial and beautifully presented detached family home, offering versatile accommodation, thoughtfully designed interiors and delightful landscaped gardens. Extending to approximately 2,465 sq ft, the house has been finished with considerable care and individuality, creating a wonderfully welcoming home that combines generous proportions with a relaxed, contemporary style.
The present owners have created interiors that feel both stylish and comfortable, with a confident use of colour, carefully chosen finishes and an appealing sense of continuity throughout. The spacious reception hall provides an inviting introduction, leading to a series of reception rooms that offer flexibility for modern family life. The principal sitting room is particularly impressive, enjoying excellent natural light and glazed doors opening directly onto the garden, whilst a separate family/dining room provides options for those looking for two living areas. A dedicated study offers a useful space for those working from home.
At the heart of the house is a superb kitchen/dining room, being beautifully appointed with an extensive range of cabinetry, generous work surfaces and a central island, whilst the adjoining dining area has ample space for a substantial table and more relaxed seating. Large, glazed doors open onto the terrace, creating a lovely connection with the gardens and allowing the accommodation to flow naturally outside during the warmer months. A separate utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor.
The sense of space continues upstairs, with the principal bedroom an especially attractive room, with a high ceiling, lovely proportions and its own en suite shower room. Three further bedrooms occupy the first floor, complemented by additional bath and shower facilities, whilst the second floor provides a particularly generous fifth bedroom and adjoining dressing room/bedroom 6. This upper level offers considerable possibilities, whether as a private suite for an older child, guest accommodation or a peaceful space away from the main household.
Outside The gardens are a particularly appealing feature of the property and have been beautifully landscaped to create a colourful and established setting. Enjoying a south-westerly aspect, the rear garden has been thoughtfully arranged with an attractive combination of richly planted borders, winding pathways and areas for sitting and entertaining. The variety of planting provides interest throughout the seasons, whilst the terrace immediately adjoining the house offers a wonderful setting for outdoor dining. A charming timber gazebo provides a further focal point, creating a delightful place to sit and enjoy the garden.
To the front, an extensive brick-paved driveway provides ample parking and leads to a substantial detached double garage, offering excellent space for vehicles and additional storage.
