Description
The Immaculate Lodge With Lake Views... - A tranquil and impeccably presented over-50s lodge, set within a private parkland retreat with lakes, woodland and scenic dog walks – all just a stone’s throw from the stunning Suffolk coast.

Thoughtfully designed by the current (and original) owners, every inch of this spacious home radiates comfort, quality, and a clear eye for detail.
Step inside and you’re greeted by a light-filled dining space that flows seamlessly into a generous sitting room with picture windows framing views over one of the site’s serene lakes – perfect for morning coffees or a spot of birdwatching. The sleek, modern kitchen comes fully equipped with integral appliances and offers direct access to the rear garden, where a paved area invites al fresco dining or relaxing in the afternoon sun.
The lodge features two well-proportioned bedrooms – one with a walk-in wardrobe and en suite shower room, and the other with built-in storage. A further stylish shower room completes the internal accommodation.
Outside, the property boasts a generous rear garden laid to lawn with a large patio, driveway parking for three vehicles, a single garage with power, and sits within generous, leafy grounds. Residents here enjoy exclusive access to enchanting woodlands, two lakes, and a selection of walking trails – ideal for dog lovers and those who relish outdoor living.
Set in the charming village of Benhall, you’re only a short drive from the heritage coast, with the likes of Aldeburgh, Thorpeness and Snape Maltings within easy reach – offering a delightful blend of culture, coast, and countryside.
