Details

Walking along the pathway you find yourself admiring the pretty front garden up to the impressive exterior of this beautiful Edwardian home that was pioneered by one of Frinton’s most prolific architects -William Hayne, who in 1911 was commissioned to design 26 Harold Road.
The property has been well looked after by the current owner and in the valuer's opinion, provides substantial accommodation, offering a wealth of character features and an abundance of history which is evident as you walk through this charming property.
On first entering this delightful home you find yourself walking through to a large reception hall featuring an original fireplace, wood parquet flooring which is also carried throughout the downstairs. Leading from the reception hall to your right is a reception room which is a spacious and opulent formal dining area with a large bay window allowing plenty of natural light into the elegant Edwardian scene,
Back in the hallway off to the right you will enter a further reception room which is a substantial 17ft lounge which gives you access to the original French doors leading into the veranda with bi-folding doors providing access into a beautifully landscaped garden including a large summer house with full electric.
Back in the house we are welcomed to a family size kitchen at 19ft long which has been recently modified with Granite worktops and high grade fitted finish cabinets,
The final room on the ground floor is a very sweet WC.
Ascend the staircase to reach the gallery landing which leads to bedroom two, situated to the front of the property, you will see it is particularly spacious, being on the footprint of the dining room below. if you walk over to the windows you can enjoy the elevated views over the front garden. The second along the hallway is the Master bedroom which is equally capacious again this is on the footprint of the lounge and the bay windows overlooking the back garden, with built in wardrobes and his and hers sides.
The third bedroom again another double room has views in the distance of the sea. Not a full view but lovely even so and well decorated.
The forth bedroom is currently used as a study/home office but would also be ideal as a child’s bedroom or play room.
Along the landing is a massive 10ft family bathroom, complete with large bath and double shower which has also been recently modified to high grade finish.
A brief history about Frinton-on-sea was first referenced in the Doomsday book of 1086, appearing as Frietuna. Until late Victorian time Frinton was just a Church, several farms and a few cottages. It was then developed as a fashionable seaside resort, attracting visitors from high society, such as the Prince of Wales who frequented the golf club and Churchill who rented a house, while Connaught Ave was well known a Bond Street of east Anglia, with its air serenity and communal pride, the town’s genteel nature continues to prevail “inside the gates” today.

This stunning family home is situated in the prestigious Frinton within the gates and is perfectly located for the stunning beach, greensward and Connaught Avenue shopping street. Turn right on leaving the house and you can wander onto the bustling Connaught Avenue where a variety of local shops, cafes, restaurants can be found and also train station with connections to Colchester, Chelmsford and London Liverpool Street. Frinton is an area that has many leisure facilities such as golf club, cricket club, tennis club, bowls club, yacht club, theatre and leisure centre with swimming pool in neighbouring Walton on The Naze.
