Description

**guide price £300,000 - £315,000** Jukes Estate Agents are delighted to bring to market this lovely 2/3 bedroom family home in the ever popular Stile Croft Harlow. For sale by way of a conditional sale.*
important: This is a 2 double bedroom property that has had 1 bedroom split into 2 making it a three bedroom (see floorplan).

The current owners have been extremely resourceful with this property and have cleverly utilised every inch of space to make what was already a lovely family home into a 'little cracker'.
You enter the property you find yourself in a lovely entrance hall. To the left in a large downstairs cloakroom with WC & a funky corner hand basin with integrated cupboards. The stairs are on the left hand side and to the right you enter the large lounge / diner.
To the front of the lounge area is an extra large bay window and to the rear of the dining area there are double sliding patio doors that lead into the large rear garden.
What is so impressive here is that often when homeowners add an extra bedroom, there is no extension in the lounge and family living & eating space is compromised. Not here though! The lounge / diner is spacious and perfectly big enough to serve a family that require the three bedrooms.
The kitchen is a galley style kitchen and is fully fitted. The owners have once again been very clever here and have utilised an alcove at the end of the kitchen and created a small but perfect utility area which houses a plumbed in washing machine & a condenser tumble dryer. There is a large larder and a door that leads into the large rear garden.
The garden is quite large and has been cleverly designed to look stylish but also low maintenance. There is a lovely patio area with a pergola for shade. Either side is decked from top to bottom and at the bottom of the garden is a small play area with soft play matting and artificial grass. There is also a brick built garden shed. Whilst gardens have always been important, they have been vital since 'lockdown', and this green space is large enough for a growing family and also for keen gardeners, it is a blank canvas should you wish to turn it into a horticultural delight.

Upstairs we have 2/3 bedrooms plus the new refurbished family bathroom.
The bathroom has been refurbished to a high standard and has a modern 'P' shaped bathtub with over head shower. There is a modern WC & washbasin that has integrated cupboards. There is a heated towel rail and both the floor and walls have high grade tiles. It really is a lovely bathroom.
The master bedroom is a large double located at the rear of the property with a large window overlooking the rear garden. There is a triple built in wardrobe.
The current owners took the decision a while ago the convert the other larger double bedrooms into 2 rooms so their sons could have their own rooms. Yes it is true that you have to pass through one to get to the other but it works. They are now 2 good size singles although you could fit a double bed in both rooms if required. Bedroom 2 has two fitted wardrobes.
The alternatives mean that you could have one room with it's own living area (a teenagers dream). You could also take down the stud wall and return it to a very large double.
We all know in today's property market that having a property that ticks lots of boxes is fantastic and there is no doubt that this house will tick lots. However, what's more important to so many buyers in 2025 is location. It was not by accident that the biggest TV property programme is called Location Location Location. This property is located in easy reach of so many important amenities:

Living in Harlow: A Guide for Families

Harlow, located in the west of Essex, is a town that strikes a balance between urban convenience and suburban tranquillity. Designed as one of the first post-war New Towns in the UK, it has developed into a vibrant community that attracts families seeking an affordable yet enriching place to live. Here, we explore what makes Harlow a family-friendly destination, focusing on its amenities, education, and leisure opportunities.

Housing and Affordability

From spacious detached homes in Church Langley to modern developments in Newhall, the town provides affordable alternatives to London living. The mix of historic cottages and contemporary builds ensures there's something for everyone, whether you're a growing family or looking to settle down.

The town boasts a range of primary and secondary schools, many of which are rated "Good" or "Outstanding" by Ofsted. Notable schools include St Nicholas School and Burnt Mill Academy, both of which have a strong reputation for academic excellence. Additionally, Harlow College offers further education opportunities, including vocational courses and a-levels, ensuring young people have a pathway to success close to home.

Green Spaces and Outdoor Activities

One of Harlow's standout features is its abundance of green spaces. The town is home to Harlow Town Park, one of the largest urban parks in the UK. Families can enjoy picnics, leisurely walks, and visits to Pets' Corner, a free farm attraction loved by children. Adjacent to the park is the Gibberd Garden, a beautiful landscaped space showcasing the vision of Sir Frederick Gibberd, Harlow's master planner.

For those seeking more adventurous pursuits, the nearby Lee Valley Regional Park offers opportunities for cycling, canoeing, and birdwatching. Additionally, the River Stort provides a scenic backdrop for walks and boating activities, perfect for family outings.

Harlow's shopping amenities cater well to families. The Harvey Centre and Water Gardens offer a mix of high-street brands and independent shops, ensuring all your retail needs are met. For everyday essentials, there are several large supermarkets, including Tesco, Sainsbury's, and Aldi.

When it comes to dining, Harlow has a growing food scene. Family-friendly restaurants such as Pizza Express and Nando's sit alongside independent cafés and international cuisine options. The town also hosts regular farmers' markets, where you can pick up fresh local produce.

The Harlow Playhouse is a hub for performing arts, offering family-friendly shows and workshops throughout the year. The town's rich public art collection, including works by Henry Moore, adds a cultural dimension to everyday life.

For sports enthusiasts, the Harlow Leisurezone features a swimming pool, gym, and courts for various sports. The facility also offers classes and activities tailored to children, ensuring that everyone in the family stays active.

Harlow's excellent transport links make it a convenient base for families. The town has two railway stations, Harlow Town and Harlow Mill, providing direct services to London Liverpool Street in under 35 minutes. This makes it an attractive option for parents commuting to the city. Additionally, the proximity to the M11 motorway and Stansted Airport ensures easy access to national and international destinations.
