House Hanging Over The Edge
by: Basecamp
The Balancing Barn stands on the edge of a tranquil nature reserve a
few miles inland from the Suffolk coast, near the historic towns of
Walberswick and Aldeburgh. Clad in elegant silver tiles, the house
dramatically cantilevers over the landscape, providing views from its
huge panoramic windows over woods, ponds and meadows. The house was
designed by the Dutch firm MVRDV, who have won a world-wide reputation for the ingenuity, playfulness and comfort of their designs.
The Balancing Barn sleeps 8 people. See more photos and find out more about the accommodation and what's included. Click here for availability for holidays in 2011 and 2012.
