SELLER'S INSIGHT I've lived in this fantastic part of Essex since leaving university many years ago. In those days my only criteria, as an avid water skier, was to live close to a convenient beach to launch the boat from, and Frinton fit the bill perfectly! Since then, despite a job which has taken me all over the country, I've never felt the need to move away from this beautiful area and our next home will undoubtedly be in the local vicinity. Eight years ago, our children had grown up and moved away from home, and we decided to start providing foster care and supported living for teenagers. This change of direction would mean a larger house with enough facilities to accommodate our new extended family, and our own children when they came to visit. We came across Willow Farm House and realised it would be the ideal setting for teenagers with its large garden and swimming pool, plenty of bedrooms for all the family, and most importantly, the third floor was designed to be completely self-contained with three bedrooms, a bathroom and kitchen, which would give our foster children an element of privacy if they wanted it. Sadly, the house wasn't on the market but, on a whim, my wife put a note through the door and asked the family to call us if they ever wanted to consider a house swap. Unbelievably they did contact us and we made the move to Willow Farm House in 2015. We have loved living here and the location has proved to be ideal for family living – a safe and peaceful area with everything we could need on our doorstep. We have Frinton a short distance away, with its cafés and restaurants, wonderful beach, cricket club, tennis club and golf course; the village has its own football and tennis clubs a short walk from the house; bus routes from the village into Frinton and Walton; and Kirby Cross station is only a 7-minute walk away, with its links to Colchester for schools and shopping, and then onto London Liverpool Street. The large garden and swimming pool have proved to be one of the many highlights of the house and we've hosted numerous summer garden parties and pool parties, with up to twenty kids in the pool at one time! Our daughter was married last year and her reception was held in the garden, so we have some wonderful memories of our time here. Over the years we've done a considerable amount of work to the property to make it our own; the entire roof and almost all the windows have been replaced, new bathrooms with digital showers have been installed and outside we've added a couple of patios, a tiled lean-to and various sheds. We've also built an indoor Koi pond. We will miss this house terribly, it has so much character and we've made it into our ideal home, but we've decided to change down a gear to concentrate more on our grandchildren, so sadly the time has come to move to something a little smaller   THE PROPERTY Willow Farm House is a charming eight-bedroom property, located on the edge of the delightful village of Kirby Cross with views across open countryside towards the neighbouring village of Kirby-le-Soken. Built in c1870, the traditional farmhouse facade, with Dutch-style roof, belies the contemporary décor hidden within. Over the past few years, the farmhouse has been maintained and tastefully refurbished throughout in a 'French Country' style and is presented to the market in immaculate 'turnkey' condition. Set slightly back from the road, and enclosed by a low, traditional cobbled stone wall, the pedestrian approach to the front of the property is via the gravel stoned front garden, planted with mature shrubs and dwarf trees. The driveway to the side of the property affords parking for a number of vehicles and acts as the main entrance to the house. Passing under the generous porch, with integrated log store, the entrance hall-cum-snug opens out into the heart of the home. To the left is a fabulous light filled garden room, complete with indoor Koi pond, and double doors leading out onto the south facing terrace. To the right of the entrance hall, past the guest cloakroom, is the large family sitting room with original beamed ceiling, oak flooring and an impressive inglenook fireplace with log burner. A wide walkway from the sitting room organically flows into a traditional shaker-style kitchen and on into the breakfast room, giving the entire layout a spacious and open plan feel. The kitchen, with its smart tiled floor, granite worksurfaces and gas range, looks out across the sunny rear garden and benefits from an adjacent well-equipped utility room. The double aspect breakfast room, with access to the garden is generous in size and ideal for family life and informal suppers. The dining room, to the front of the property, is currently used as an additional sitting room, but would make the ideal formal dining room for more grand occasions. Ascending to the first floor are four good-sized bedrooms, with the smaller fifth bedroom currently used as a study. The bright, triple aspect master suite has sweeping countryside views, a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite shower room. The remaining rooms all lead off the spacious landing and benefit from a sizeable family bathroom with large walk-in shower and freestanding traditional roll top bath. The second-floor houses three further bedrooms, kitchenette and shower room, making this floor a potential self-contained annexe. Situated in approximately half an acre of grounds, the south facing garden is enclosed by wood panelled fencing with mature borders and trees; various outbuildings (potential self-contained annexe if needed), including a workshop; a covered veranda and open 'sun trap' terrace for seating; plus a full sized heated swimming pool.   LOCATION Willow Farm House is equidistant between the town of Frinton-on-Sea and the popular village of Thorpe-le-Soken - both are within the Tendring District of Essex and are located to the east of Colchester. The village offers a Tesco Express offering goods for day to day needs, three public houses, wine bar, restaurant, Chinese restaurant and takeaway, dispensing chemist, doctors surgery, popular Church of England primary school and Tendring Technology College and TLG Secondary School, both of which have extremely good OFSTED reports.There are also very good nursery schools in and near Thorpe-le-Soken (Margery's private day nursery being the one of them). Another further attraction is the transport available locally to the grammar and private schools in Colchester and Ipswich. The village also offers a mainline railway station giving links to London Liverpool Street.Thorpe-le-Soken station is 1.7 miles away which is about a 4 minute drive from the property. The average journey to London Liverpool Street is approximately 1 hour 24 minutes. On an average weekday, there are 25 trains travelling from London Liverpool Street to Thorpe-le-Soken. If you prefer to use road transport, the A120 is a short drive away leading to the A12, M25 and beyond. To the east is Frinton on Sea, a small tranquil seaside town which is home to beautiful sandy beaches and vast 'Greensward'. Many celebrities are known to have either visited Frinton or enjoyed living there, household names such as Sir Cliff Richard, Mike Reid, Gary Oldman, Vanessa Redgrave and Sir Winston Churchill amongst many others. Frinton boasts boutique shopping and some wonderful restaurants and eateries along its main street. There are excellent walks which can be undertaken nearby offering views over the Walton Backwaters and Hamford Water. For those who enjoy boats, Titchmarsh Marina is only a 10 minute drive away. If you prefer to pamper yourself, the Lifehouse Spa, an exclusive boutique style hotel that offers luxurious beauty treatments, fine dining and retreat days is very close to the property.   AGENTS NOTES Mains Gas, Electricity, Water and Drainage.

The sense of community on The Crescent is unmatched, and we have made lifelong friends with our neighbours. What initially attracted us to this house and location was its unique charm and impeccable attention to detail. Paddlers is a home that exudes warmth and elegance, filled with an abundance of natural light. The sheltered garden is a tranquil oasis, basking in the sunshine. With 6 double bedrooms, including 2 with ensuites and 2 additional bathrooms, there is plenty of space for family and friends. Just a short 5-minute walk along the tree-lined road and through the beautiful Crescent Garden, you'll find yourself on the unspoilt beach and greensward. Connaught Avenue, with its diverse range of shops and delightful cafes and restaurants, is conveniently located just around the corner. The train station is also nearby, providing easy access to London via Colchester. In terms of amenities, there is a fantastic GP surgery, multiple opticians, a dentist, foot clinic, and even plans for a gym. For parents considering raising their children here, rest assured that Paddlers offers excellent pre and primary schools, as well as strong links to secondary schools. This area is renowned for its safety and is known to be a great place to bring up children of all ages. Choosing this property over others was an easy decision for us. Not only does it provide ample space for our loved ones to stay, but our 4 grandchildren absolutely adore having their own bedrooms, especially the one at the top of the house with its own bathroom and a glimpse of the sea. The Chesney marble fireplace, stunning staircase, and beautiful stained-glass door that illuminates the hall add a touch of grandeur to the house. Every visitor falls in love with its undeniable charm and curb appeal. Commute convenience is another advantage of living here, as there is a mainline station with connections to London via Colchester. As for the history of the property, it was skilfully converted from a 1930's house to its current three floors, showcasing exceptional craftsmanship that must be seen to be fully appreciated. The ideal next owner of Paddlers would be someone who appreciates the uniqueness of this property and desires a seamless transition into a modern yet cosy home. During our time here, we have made some improvements, including the addition of a lovely summerhouse in the garden and new boilers. Our personal favourite room is the Orangery, a serene space where we enjoy breakfast and stargazing at night. Our grandchildren, on the other hand, absolutely adore the spacious top bedroom with its own bathroom, where they take turns sleeping in their very own private space. One change that we are particularly proud of is the addition of the summerhouse, which has elevated the tranquillity of the garden and provided a perfect space for gatherings with friends and family. Some of our most cherished memories in this home include hosting beautiful garden parties and celebrating Christmas with our children, toasting marshmallows on the open fire. The beauty of the house now lies in its abundance of natural light, offering breathtaking sunrises both at the front and in the garden. Leaving this wonderful neighbourhood will undoubtedly be bittersweet, as it will be a challenge to find another road as friendly and lovely as The Crescent. The local community here is incredibly supportive, and there are plenty of activities to engage in, such as tennis, golf, cricket, choirs, and the famous summer theatre. Not to mention, the unspoilt beach is perfect for swimming in the sea. As for the reason behind our decision to move on, we simply enjoy the adventure of moving and exploring new horizons while we still have the opportunity. Paddlers has been our haven, filled with cherished memories and a strong sense of community. We hope that the next owners will find as much joy and fulfilment in this unique property as we have.   LOCATION Frinton-on-Sea is a charming seaside town located in the county of Essex, England.

OVERVIEW ** GUIDE PRICE £1,000,000 – £1,300,000 ** This exceptional five???bedroom detached home offers a rare blend of traditional character and contemporary style, set in the highly desirable village of Peldon, close to Mersea Island. Surrounded by peaceful countryside, the property extends to an impressive 4,480 sq. ft., including a beautifully crafted main house and a range of versatile outbuildings. Built in 1993 by the current owner, using local tradesmen and the trusted block???and???beam construction method, the home showcases enduring quality throughout. Every aspect of the property has been thoughtfully designed to create a living environment where elegance meets everyday practicality. The architecture and layout offer not just a home, but a lifestyle defined by comfort, space, and timeless appeal. Additional land is available by negotiation.  SELLERS INSIGHT Working with a local architect, our key criteria was to not only design and build a house in keeping with its surroundings, but to build a high-quality home using only local trades and skilled craftsmen. The final design became a thatched barn-style property combining traditional features with all the facilities for modern day living. All aspects of the house have been custom made and built to last, from each individual window and door; the hardwood kitchen and cherrywood family bathroom down to the spindles on the staircase – each hand turned by a local wood turner. The octagonal orangery was built as an added feature and now accommodates our spiral wine cellar, complete with humidifier to ensure the wines are stored at the correct temperature. The house, and its location, has proved to be ideal for our family with generous space for our two boys as they grew, both inside and outside. We sit on three acres of grounds so, when they were young, we had a cricket pitch set up and even created a mini golf course, so my husband could teach them to play. This is a fantastic area for children and teenagers in terms of things to do and transport links to schools or activities. As the boys became more independent, they were able to catch the bus outside the house to travel to their sailing club in Mersea, or to Colchester to meet up with friends; and the self-contained annexe proved a popular choice to move into when they were old enough! There are a number of things I will miss when I leave; this house is both spacious enough to host large parties and events, of which we have had many, but also cosy and welcoming.
