Known as one of 'The Captains Houses', it was once owned by a sea captain who sailed the Packet Ships into Harwich port-an enduring connection to the town's rich maritime heritage. We chose this home for its character, its elegant proportions, and above all, its location-just a short stroll to the sea and nestled in the heart of Harwich, close to family and the vibrant local community. It's been a peaceful and inspiring place to live, filled with natural light and a true sense of history. As our lives have grown busier and our family has expanded, we now need to be closer to our grandchildren in Surrey. It's not easy to say goodbye to a home we love so deeply, but it's time to pass its care to someone new to begin another chapter in its long and special story.
