55, Quendon Way

No. 55 Quendon Way is a house designed in 1934 and built in 1935 by Oliver Hill in the International Moderne style. The building is constructed of concrete and features a flat roof. It has two storeys, with the front elevation showcasing two windows and a large curved bay on the right side, which serves the Living Room and Principal Bedroom. This bay consists of six lights, while the left side of the first floor has a tripartite casement window. A concrete balcony with a metal handrail is located in front of the left-hand bedroom, connecting to the principal bedroom, which has two doors leading onto the balcony.

The ground floor includes the original flush front door, which has a circular cut-out, along with original gauge doors. The rear elevation features four casement windows on the first floor, including a tall staircase window, and two casements on the ground floor. There is also a small concrete projection for storing timber and coal, as well as a separate maid's toilet.

Inside, the L-shaped Living Room has a plain marble fireplace from the 1930s, woodblock floors, an original bronze curtain track, and a small wooden serving hatch that connects to the kitchen. The kitchen is fitted with Warmsley Lewis wooden cupboards and is half tiled. A straight flight staircase with a closed-in balustrade leads to the first floor, which includes a 1930s ceramic surround for an electric fire that has a built-in clock, and a bathroom that retains its original fittings along with green and black vitrilite wall covering. The house features many 1930s light fittings and original flush doors. This property is noted as the best preserved example of the twelve houses built by Oliver Hill at Frinton. Originally named 'Dawn', it was later called 'Kelvedon'.
