"We loved the location and the two-acre garden, and so we decided to demolish the original building, start from scratch and build a beautiful family home that makes the absolute most of this lovely setting."<br /><br />"The house is a Potton timber-frame house. We worked together on the design and build and feel blessed to have such a beautiful home with such gorgeous views over the backwaters. There's no other house along the Kirby Road that has such a wonderfully large garden with magnificent uninterrupted views, which extend across to Harwich, Oakley, Felixstowe and the countryside beyond. The sunsets are magical and the outlook changes constantly. Depending on the height of the tide, the time of year and the weather, we can always look out and see something different on the horizon. The house itself has a really warm and homely feel, and it features an eclectic mix of old styles and new. Building the house was a labour of love, and being able to design every detail and choose every aspect of the house gave us great pleasure."<br /><br />"The garden is without doubt one of the best features of the property and having two acres means we have plenty of areas to sit out and enjoy it," continues the owner. "However, one of the best places is by the lake where we can listen to the sound of water from the fountain - this gives a sense of calm and beauty too. The outside bar area provides an extra place to entertain friends and family, the viewing platform that looks down onto the lake is also a wonderful place to be, and the newly installed pagoda adds not only to the aesthetics of the lake, but also provides us with another lovely area to relax in."<br /><br />"The kitchen is the heart of our home and we tend to spend most of our time in there cooking, chatting and entertaining. <br /><br /><h3>Disclaimer for virtual viewings</h3><p>Some or all information pertaining to this property may have been provided solely by the vendor, and although we always make every effort to verify the information provided to us, we strongly advise you to make further enquiries before continuing.</p><p>If you book a viewing or make an offer on a property that has had its valuation conducted virtually, you are doing so under the knowledge that this information may have been provided solely by the vendor, and that we may not have been able to access the premises to confirm the information or test any equipment.
