At Gut Fergitz in the Uckermark, just an hour’s drive from the metropolis of Berlin, you will find wide open skies, clear waters, beautiful nature – and modern architecture. On the shores of the lake “Oberuckersee”, two houses, each containing two apartments, have been built on the grounds of a former agricultural estate. The elongated, flat buildings also feature projections and recesses, and combine exposed brick, timber surfaces and brightly plastered porches. The clear, precise lines of their exteriors continue inside; the apartments feature panoramic windows, screed floors and modern, reduced furnishings. But the old hasn’t been forgotten: Each apartment is decorated with selected antiques, and on the grounds the stone walls of an old barn have been preserved as a picturesque ruin.
Gut Fergitz is a centre of art and culture. The estate’s barn hosts several cultural events including the UM Festival. The artworks exhibited in each apartment can also be purchased. There is also a holiday home on the estate with room for up to 9 people: the former milking house, called the Stone House because of its fieldstone façade.

Wir sind jedes Jahr wieder hier mit Freunden und bespielen reihum die Ferienhäuser. Im Bett liegen und die Augen aufschlagen und in den Uckermärker Himmel schauen. Im Winter oder Vorfrühling lieben wir es besonders, wenn kaum Menschen unterwegs sind. Nachhause kommen an den Kamin, dicke Decke über die Füße, Buch vor die Nase. Oder einfach rausschauen, dem Licht folgen und die Seele baumeln lassen über die Wasserfläche. Unser absolutes Lieblings-Hideaway mit Lieblingsmenschen, die diesen Ort mit soviel Sorgfalt, Vision und Achtsamkeit entwickelt haben! Danke!!!
Die Lage auf dem großen Anwesen mit dem Blick auf den See ist wunderschön. Selbst im grauen November haben wir uns sehr wohl gefühlt (mit Fußbodenheizung und Kamin sind die Wohnungen sehr behaglich). Toll sind auch die Kunstwerke in den Wohnungen!
Die Häuser sind toll gebaut und wunderschön eingerichtet. Die Lage am See rundet den Aufenthalt ab. Erholung pur!
Schöne Häuser, toller Ort !
Die Lage am Seeufer mit dem Blick auf das Wasser ist super !
