4 Bedroom Cottage in Hartest

Set in a peaceful spot within easy reach of vibrant Sudbury and historic Bury St Edmunds, this welcoming barn conversion is a pet-friendly escape perfect for families or groups of friends. Treat everyone to a hearty meal at the friendly pub, sample craft ales at the brewing company, or pick up fresh ingredients from the local butcher. For a day trip, head to the famous Wool Towns – Long Melford (7.5 miles) and Lavenham (8 miles) are both known for their beautiful medieval streets, timber-framed houses, independent shops, and cosy tea rooms. Bury St Edmunds (7 miles) is a must for foodies and shoppers alike, with its vibrant market, independent boutiques, historic abbey gardens, and fantastic choice of places to eat. The National Trust’s Ickworth House (7.5 miles) is perfect for exploring grand parkland and formal gardens, while Nowton Park (6 miles) is great for dog walks and family picnics.

The rustic barn exterior hides a beautiful, contemporary interior, where thoughtful design awaits around every corner. Step into the spacious, well-equipped kitchen/diner – ideal for cooking up hearty breakfasts or celebratory feasts to share around the large dining table. After dinner, retire to the inviting sitting room and sink into plush sofas as you watch your favourite films or shows on the Smart TV, all while your four-legged friends snooze happily nearby. On the ground floor, you'll also find a handy cloakroom, a practical utility room, and a fun-filled bunk bedroom for the children. Upstairs, three beautifully presented bedrooms await. The super-king-size room offers a sleek en-suite shower room, while the king-size and twin bedrooms share a gleaming Jack and Jill bathroom for relaxing soaks.

Outside, there’s ample room to unwind and play. Enjoy three off-road parking spaces, a front garden, and a large, enclosed rear courtyard where children and pets can safely run around. For an extra treat, arrange ahead for seasonal use of the outdoor swimming pool (1st May to 31st September). The hot tub is available throughout the year by arrangement.
