Location
Fornham St. Martin is a well-served village with a range of amenities including village hall, church and public house. The historic market town of Bury St. Edmunds is just 1.5 miles away and offers a superb range of educational, recreational and shopping amenities. The A14 provides fast access to Ipswich, Cambridge and London via the M11. Bury St Edmunds is famously known as the 'Jewel in the Crown of Suffolk' with a distinct reputation for bringing together the best of old and new, with its rich history and its broad range of venues for dining, shopping and relaxing. These include an impressive fresh produce market every Wednesday and Saturday. The town is renowned for its beautiful Cathedral and for the leafy and floral Abbey Gardens with its impressive medieval ruins, all just a short stroll down from the colourful boutiques and cafe culture of the town centre.
It is easy to see why people want to settle in Bury and make it their home. This property is just 1.5 miles away from the nearest train station and close to road networks which make London and Cambridge easily commutable, along with giving access to the fine range of town, country and coastal destinations of East Anglia. Additionally for international destinations, Stansted Airport is less than an hour's door-to-door journey from the house.

When entering Fornham St Martin from the direction of Bury St Edmunds, pass the village church and public house on the left and turn left into Lark Valley Drive, where the property will be a short distance further on the right hand side.
