Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
Situated in this exceptional setting amongst a small rural community with only a handful of neighbours, Ling Covert Cottage is a beautifully presented, much-improved and extended former farm cottage, built of traditional construction with brick-and-flint elevations underneath a clay pan-tiled roofline. The cottage cleverly fused together the original character of the property together with contemporary nuances and a high-quality finish throughout, with engineered oak floors and modern oak ceiling timbers helping create a charming, comfortable home arranged over two floors, extending to around 1,700ft2.
The property comprises entrance/dining hall, with red-brick chimney housing double-sided wood-burning stove and doors to a snug/playroom with fitted cupboards and opening to the sitting room, which is a superb reception room with windows to the south and opening to the upgraded kitchen/breakfast room.
The vaulted breakfast area has a large stained-glass window and glazed doors to the garden, with large island unit with quartz tops and storage beneath, with an opening to the beautifully finished bespoke kitchen, fitted with a matching range of painted shaker-style units with quartz worktops with Belfast sink, integrated fridge, freezer, dishwasher and wine cooler, space for freestanding range cooker. There is a rear hall with access to the utility room and ground-floor shower room.
On the first floor is a spacious landing area, with the principal bedroom having storage cupboards and windows to both aspects and share of the ‘Jack & Jill’ shower room, fitted with a modern suite with fully tiled walk-in shower cubicle, vanity wash basin and low-level WC. There is access from here to bedroom 3.

Location
Culford Heath is a small rural community of only a handful of houses centred round a converted church and surrounded by farm- and woodland, with little in the way of noise or light pollution - an exceptional get-away.
Culford Heath is just four miles from Bury St Edmunds, which is a unique and dazzling historic gem with a richly fascinating heritage - the striking combination of medieval architecture, elegant Georgian squares and glorious Cathedral and Abbey Gardens provide a distinctive visual charm. With prestigious shopping, an award-winning market, plus a variety of cultural attractions and fine places to stay, Bury St Edmunds is under two hours from London and very convenient for Cambridge, Ipswich and Norwich.
Directions
From Bury St Edmunds, take the A134 towards Thetford. Proceed through Ingham and after about two miles, turn left at the sign for ‘The Parsonage’. Follow the track, turning right at the ‘Private Road’, and go past the church on the left. Ling Covert Cottage is a short distance along on the right-hand side.
