About this property
Three-bedroom family home
Approx. 904 sq ft / 84 sq m
Two separate reception rooms
Generously sized kitchen
Ground-floor WC
Westerly facing rear garden
Excellent scope for modernisation
A spacious three-bedroom family home offering an exciting opportunity to modernise, personalise and create a home of your own.
Situated in the established Barn Mead area of Harlow, this three-bedroom terraced home represents an excellent opportunity for buyers looking for space, rather than paying a premium for somebody else's choice of refurbishment.
The property would benefit from updating and modernisation throughout, but behind the current décor is a well-proportioned family home with a particularly practical layout and plenty of potential for a new owner to make their mark.
On entering the property, the hallway provides access to a convenient ground-floor WC, the kitchen and a generous living room. The living room offers plenty of space for family seating and leads through to the separate dining room, providing two distinct reception areas that work particularly well for everyday family life.
The generously proportioned kitchen provides an extensive amount of storage and worktop space and continues towards the rear of the property, where a door opens directly onto the garden. Positioned alongside the dining room, the arrangement provides an excellent starting point for anyone considering how they might redesign the ground floor in the future, subject to any necessary consents.
Upstairs are three bedrooms, making the property equally suited to a growing family, those needing a home office, or buyers simply wanting additional space. The first floor also provides a shower room and the added practicality of a separate WC, together with useful built-in storage.
Outside, the westerly facing rear garden is a particular feature of the property, offering the opportunity to enjoy the afternoon and evening sunshine. Predominantly laid to lawn, it provides a great blank canvas for a new owner to landscape, entertain or create an outdoor space to suit their lifestyle.
For buyers prepared to undertake some updating, 178 Barn Mead provides the chance to purchase a genuine three-bedroom family home and improve it gradually to their own taste and specification.
Rather than paying for somebody else's kitchen, flooring and décor, this is an opportunity to buy the space, see the potential and make it your own.

Entrance Hall (8'0" x 6'9", 2.44m x 2.06m)
The entrance hall is approached via the front entrance door and provides a central introduction to the ground-floor accommodation. There is a radiator, staircase rising to the first floor with handrail and balustrade, and useful storage incorporated around the staircase. Doors provide access to the ground-floor WC, kitchen and living room
Dowstairs WC (2'7" x 6'5", 0.79m x 1.96m)
Conveniently positioned off the entrance hall, the ground-floor cloakroom is fitted with a WC and has a window providing natural light
Living Room (10'4" x 18'7", 3.15m x 5.66m)
A particularly generous reception room extending along the side of the property, offering plenty of space for both seating and additional furniture. The room has wood-effect flooring, a radiator and a large window providing natural light.
An opening towards the rear connects the living room with the dining room, giving the two reception spaces a degree of flow while retaining their individual identities
Dining Room (10'1" x 8'8", 3.07m x 2.64m)
Positioned towards the rear of the property, the dining room provides a separate space for family dining and entertaining. A rear-facing window overlooks the garden and provides good natural light.
The room sits immediately alongside both the living room and kitchen, making it particularly well positioned for everyday family use
Kitchen (9'4" x 21'7", 2.84m x 6.58m)
A particularly generous kitchen extending towards the rear of the property and providing an excellent amount of storage and worktop space. The existing kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of wood-fronted wall and base units, work surfaces and tiled splashbacks, together with a built-in double oven and gas hob.
The kitchen continues into a bright rear section with a window overlooking the garden, sink unit and further cabinetry, while a glazed external door provides direct access to the rear garden. Tiled flooring extends through the space.
The generous proportions provide considerable scope for a future owner to update or reconfigure the kitchen to their own specification
Landing (8'7" x 5'2", 2.62m x 1.57m)
The staircase rises to a central first-floor landing providing access to all three bedrooms and the washing facilities
Bedroom (10'4" x 13'2", 3.15m x 4.01m)
A generous double bedroom with a large window providing plenty of natural light. The room has wood-effect flooring, a radiator and useful built-in storage
Bedroom (9'8" x 13'1", 2.95m x 3.99m)
Another well-proportioned bedroom with a broad window providing natural light, radiator and fitted/built-in storage. The room is currently carpeted and offers sufficient space for a double bed and accompanying furniture
Bedroom (7'3" x 8'1", 2.21m x 2.46m)
The third bedroom is a useful additional bedroom with a window providing natural light and a radiator. A particularly useful feature is the built-in cupboard housing the wall-mounted gas boiler, while still leaving usable bedroom space.
The room could work equally well as a child's bedroom, guest room or home office
Shower Room (5'0" x 5'4", 1.52m x 1.63m)
There is a large enclosed shower with glazed screen, wash-hand basin, mirrored wall cabinet and a window providing natural light and ventilation. Dark floor tiling contrasts with the white tiled walls
WC (5'7" x 2'6", 1.7m x 0.76m)
A useful separate WC positioned adjacent to the shower room, fitted with a WC and benefiting from a window providing natural light. The separate arrangement is particularly practical for a three-bedroom family home, allowing the WC to remain available while the shower room is in use
Garden
The property benefits from a westerly facing rear garden, ideally positioned to enjoy the afternoon and evening sunshine. Accessed directly from the kitchen, the garden provides a good-sized outdoor space with plenty of scope for a new owner to landscape and create their own seating, entertaining and planting areas. Predominantly laid to lawn and enclosed by established boundaries
