THE PROPERTY
Application number 230876. Creek View is a unique opportunity to construct a new house, nestled in the trees in highly sought-after and secluded area of the Anchorage in West Mersea. Its elevated position provides stunning west facing views over water and open countryside beyond.
Creek View is a unique opportunity to construct a new house, nestled in the trees in highly sought-after and secluded area of the Anchorage in West Mersea. Its elevated position provides stunning west facing views over water and open countryside beyond. There is also direct pedestrian access to the coastal path and water”.
The house was designed by LAP Architects with inspiration drawn from the RIBA award winning ‘Invisible House’ in Warwickshire. From its first conception the house was designed to maximise its views over the water, taking in the west facing sun sets and at the same time minimising its impact on the beautiful landscape. To achieve this, the house is clad in flint on the ground floor, anchoring it to the ground, with mirrored cladding on the first floor blending it into the trees and sky. The house is set as three separate buildings connected by glazed connecting blocks providing visual interest both internally and externally. It also has living green roofs to minimise its impact on the environment.
The plot extends to approximately one third of an acre and the house boasts 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms extending to 3,746 sq ft (348 sq m). To maximise the views to the west over the water, both the spacious kitchen, living and dining room, and the master bedroom suite are on the first floor opening out on to spacious roof terraces. In addition, there is a family room that could be used for a study, gym or play room and a separate TV room with views over the water from the first floor.
Creek View is a rare opportunity to experience island life in this beautiful and sought after location, in a new home built to your own specification. “Direct pedestrian access to the coastal path and water”.
