Full description:
The old fishing hamlet of Thorpe was inherited by the Ogilvie family in the early 1900s, who decided to build a model seaside village inspired by the writings of Peter Pan author and family friend, J M Barrie. So it was that the village of Thorpeness emerged and the resort has become a very desirable village indeed. At the centre of the village there is an impressive lake known as The Meare where canoes can be hired and wildlife observed. There is also a popular Public House and restaurant at the heart of the village and the famous ‘House in the Clouds’. Thorpeness is an area of outstanding Natural Beauty and there is also a thriving golf club and sailing club.
Other popular resorts of Aldeburgh, Snape, Walberswick and Southwold are all within easy reach and the nearest railway station is at Saxmundham, about five miles to the north-west with connecting trains to Ipswich and some direct trains through to London's Liverpool Street Station. The County Town of Ipswich lies about twenty miles to the south-west.
Description The Turret House has been recently renovated to a very high standard throughout and incorporates stylish modern touches with a traditional design and superb features and space. With very large bedrooms and spacious living areas, the property is situated just yards from beach.
