Harold Way, Frinton-on-Sea, CO13

THE PROPERTY
Herringbone was designed and built in the early 2010s by the current owners and is for sale for the first time.

Great thought went into the design including allowing the easy movement of light throughout the house which has been achieved, in part, with the addition of Velux windows in many of the rooms. The effect is most evident in the galleried landing and entrance hall and in the open-plan kitchen/dining/living space, which has aspects to three elevations and includes three sets of sliding/bi-fold doors, accessing two garden areas.
 
Further design features of note include several Pocket sliding doors, shadow gaps (where the walls meets the floors), thermostatically controlled under floor heating on both levels, engineered hardwood floors on the first floor, a fully tiled ground floor, uplighters on the landing and three nicely fitted bath/shower rooms (one of which includes a Philippe Stark sink).

Solar panels supplement the hot water heating system (with the assistance of a heat store cylinder) and the German designed kitchen and utility rooms between them include a breakfast bar, quartz surfaces and all the normal appliances plus a wine fridge and a wok hob.

The ground floor layout is versatile, being designed to allow the use of the study as a fourth (double-sized) bedroom which has easy access to the existing ground floor wet-room.

GROUNDS AND OFFICE
The rear garden measures around 7 x 15 meters and includes a large shed. The garden is private thanks to well-placed hedges and trees and faces southwest for sun most of the day in the summer. It has been cleverly landscaped with a shaded dining area, a patio arranged around an open fireplace and a raised deck which is accessed from the kitchen and dining areas.

A delightful garden office/studio is found in one corner of the rear garden. It is lockable, has power and WIFI supplies and is fitted with a desk and a bench. It is sufficiently insulated for use all year around.

A secure front garden provides a pleasant outlook for the main reception room and features a deck which is accessed from sliding doors. Beyond the front garden there is private off-street parking for two large cars and access to a workshop/store room.

LOCATION
Herringbone is located on Harold Way – a street with little in the way of passing traffic which runs parallel to Connaught Avenue, Frinton-on-Sea’s main thoroughfare. As such, the house is just moment on foot from a wide variety of services including two supermarkets.

Frinton’s famous esplanade and beach are just five minutes’ walk from the house as is Frinton Train Station, which provides services to Colchester and London.
