Collection of spacious homes released in Sudbury

Barratt Eastern Counties has launched a long-awaited collection of exceptionally spacious, detached family properties at Bakers Mill in Sudbury, Suffolk.

According to recent research*, large, detached family homes are one of the property types currently in shortest supply in the UK. This goes someway to explain why these homes have been so hotly anticipated.

Rebecca Littler, Sales Director of Barratt Eastern Counties, said: “I would encourage homebuyers to visit this stunning development as soon as possible before these homes are snapped up! Only by visiting can you truly appreciate the tranquillity of the idyllic riverside setting in Constable Country.”

Bakers Mill is now 85 per cent sold. The large, detached homes to be released at the development include The Cormorant, The Tern and The Egret, which are all over 1,800 sq ft in size. The choice is fabulous and Barratt is confident that every family will find a home here to suit their requirements.

The Cormorant is an outstanding four-bedroom home arranged over three storeys, featuring a living room on the ground and the first floor, a study and a separate dining room.

The Tern is an elegant three-storey home, comprising five bedrooms, three of which are double, a living room which spans the width of the house and a large kitchen/breakfast room.

The Egret is a fantastic five-bedroom, three-storey home with a large kitchen/breakfast room and adjoining utility room, a living room and separate family room, a master bedroom with en suite and dressing room, four further bedrooms and three bath/shower rooms.

Bakers Mill is a beautiful development by Barratt Eastern Counties, set on the banks of the River Stour near Sudbury. In fact, it is so picturesque that local Suffolk wildlife artist, Peter Partington, recently drew inspiration from the beautiful setting of the new homes for one of his watercolour paintings.

Peter Partington follows in famous footsteps as Bakers Mill is set in Constable Country, the enchanting part of East Anglia famed for being the birthplace of 19th Century artist John Constable, renowned for his landscape paintings of the English countryside.

The development is surrounded by vast swathes of beautiful countryside and the meadows and river are teeming with wildlife. There’s an extensive network of foot and cycle paths around Bakers Mill and all the homes come with a free fishing licence for making the most of the river.The original 19th century mill on the site has been carefully refurbished, adding great character to the development and artfully blending the old with the new.

Although Bakers Mill enjoys a particularly quiet and peaceful location, it is still very accessible. There are good road links to Colchester and Braintree and Sudbury station is only five minutes away with regular services into London Liverpool Street, taking about 75 minutes.

To make it easy for people with an existing home to sell, Barratt is offering its Part Exchange service at Bakers Mill, which can save time, worry and the expense of estate agent fees and HIP packs.

Prices currently start from £289,950. For more information visit barratthomes.co.uk.
