Fen Harbour Villa

A boathouse and a villa, sharing one roofline.

Fen Harbour Villa and boathouse in low sun

The house

Lindqvist ran one roof over both the house and the boathouse so that from the water they read as a single object. The mooring comes with the title.

The lower floor floods by design roughly twice a decade — it is finished in materials that do not care, and there is a drain in the middle of the boathouse floor.

What makes it

  • Single roofline over house and boathouse
  • Private jetty and mooring included in the title
  • Ground floor detailed for periodic flooding
  • Larch and zinc externally, untreated
