Set adjacent the dramatic golf course and Suffolk coast line, Fernie Lodge is uniquely designed to showcase a palette of high-quality traditional materials, however the nautical design is truly contemporary. The developed mix of colours is carefully chosen to create an interesting harmony with the sand dunes and shingles ridges of the AONB. A sweeping wave of angled roofs unites the development and their forms provide a distinctive new environment. Spacious interiors filled with natural light provide great flexibility and the opportunity for individual replanning. Generous ceiling heights with sea views extend out to protected balconies, and crow’s nest second floors will surprise and delight. The detailing is robust for its context, and sustainability integral to the home’s concept in their orientation, thermal mass and construction technology.
Situated just 1½ hours by train to central London, the property is all about a location that provides a coastal lifestyle combined with excellent road and rail connections to all major regions. The morning Sunrise, the shifting sandbanks and the ever-changing moods of the sea provide truly magnificent sea and estuary views. The undulating fairways and iconic historical landmarks combined with the changing seasons provide a picture postcard view every day across the Martello links. From striking coastal scenery and picturesque rural countryside to marshes and woodlands and abundant wildlife the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty provide the opportunity for you and your family to get out in the fresh sea air and really connect with nature. The best way to explore and enjoy the area is by foot and there are numerous walks directly accessible from the property.
Felixstowe Ferry Golf Club is one of the oldest clubs in England founded in 1880 and is the only links course in Suffolk, and one of only 246 true links courses in the world. Private Members facilities include the 18 hole Martello course, the 9 hole full length Kingsfleet course, indoor and outdoor practice facilities, Clubhouse and changing facilities. The existing Clubhouse was originally built circa 1843 as a farmhouse and over the years has been converted with many changes making it more suitable for golfers. It has sadly come to the end of its useful life and a fantastic new Clubhouse will be built to ensure golf will continue here for many generations to come.
Felixstowe lies on the popular East coast of Suffolk.
