Description
A rare opportunity to acquire one of just four residences
within the historic Masonic Hall, one of Bury St Edmunds'
most distinctive landmark buildings, positioned directly
opposite the Abbey Gardens and enjoying views towards St Edmundsbury Cathedral and the Norman Tower.
Occupying a prominent position within the town's celebrated Medieval Grid, Residence 3 combines the elegance and proportions synonymous with Georgian architecture with the practicality of modern living. Forming part of a Grade II listed building dating from the mid-18th century, the residence offers an exceptional blend of architectural character and contemporary comfort.
The setting is among the finest in the town. Step outside and the Abbey Gardens are directly opposite, while the Cathedral Quarter, Theatre Royal, independent boutiques, cafés and some of Suffolk's finest restaurants are conveniently located just a few minutes away.
Rich in history yet perfectly placed for modern day living,
Residence 3 offers an enviable lifestyle in the very heart of
one of Suffolk's most attractive and sought-after market
towns.
The residence extends to approximately 1,955 sq ft and is
arranged across a single floor. Elegant proportions, impressive ceiling heights and original sash windows speak to the building's Georgian heritage, while a comprehensive renovation has introduced the levels of quality and comfort expected of contemporary living.
At the heart of the home lies a magnificent open-plan reception, dining and kitchen space. Five large west-facing sash windows overlook Chequers Square, filling the room with natural light throughout the day and providing an exceptional setting for both everyday living and entertaining. Combining scale, character and functionality, it forms the natural focal point of the residence.
The bedroom accommodation has been thoughtfully arranged to provide both privacy and flexibility. All three bedrooms have their own en suite, with the principal suite offering a particularly refined and peaceful retreat. A second double bedroom enjoys captivating views towards St Edmundsbury Cathedral and the Norman Tower, while the third is currently arranged as a dressing room and fitness studio, yet equally suited as a guest
suite, home office or additional bedroom. A separate cloakroom completes the layout.
Throughout, original architectural detailing has been carefully preserved and complemented by a considered contemporary finish, creating interiors that feel both timeless and highly functional. Opportunities to acquire a residence of this nature are exceptionally rare. Combining cathedral views, direct access to the Abbey Gardens and ownership within one of Bury St Edmunds' most distinguished historic buildings, Residence 3 offers a genuinely unique opportunity at the very heart of one of Suffolk's most celebrated market towns.
