Harbour Gate was built in 1991 by a renowned local builder as his own family home, the quality and detail was simply amazing for its time and was clearly a labour of love. The current owners undertook a ‘top to toe’ refurbishment in 2016 with a brief to bring the house up to 21st century standards, but not to lose any of the charm and sophistication that sets this home apart from the norm. Many of the original tradesmen were brought back to ensure standards were maintained. The finished house is just simply magical. If you are looking for a beautiful traditional family home with all the latest equipment and technology and in one of the best locations in the UK, you need look no further.
