The conversion has been sympathetically planned and designed to retain internal walls and as many original features as possible. The architect has created open-plan kitchen/dining rooms which take full advantage of the stunning sea views, and have bright and modern interiors which can be customised to your own specification with high quality flooring throughout.

Location
Felixstowe lies on the popular east coast of Suffolk and is fast becoming the next sought-after area for coastal living, with easy access to the A12, A14 and rail services to London Liverpool Street, Cambridge and Norwich.
There are 4 miles of beach that run from Landguard Point, with an 18th century fort, to Felixstowe Ferry, a charming fishing hamlet and home to Felixstowe Ferry Sailing Club. In between are the award-winning Seafront Gardens and the town with a theatre, cinema, shops and plenty of bars and restaurants to choose from. The town also has a wide range of recreational facilities including a leisure centre, tennis club, rugby club and cricket club.
Felixstowe South Beach and Pier were named one of only 76 Blue Flag rated beaches in England to have 'excellent' water quality for swimming, awarded by environmental charity, Keep Britain Tidy. The only beach to be awarded a Blue Flag in Suffolk, Felixstowe has been undergoing a period of regeneration and improvement over the past several years and the Pier was reopened in 2017, following a £3million makeover.
Apartment living is popular with those looking for second homes due to their desirable 'lock up and leave' nature and with many in secure, gated developments. Residents of Simpson's Place will be able to enjoy spectacular views all year round with easy access to amenities and Felixstowe's wonderful beaches.

Broadband availability and predicted speed
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
