Jukes Estate Agents are delighted to present this superb two-bedroom, second-floor apartment in the ever-popular Dadswood development, Harlow, CM20.

Beautifully presented throughout, this welcoming apartment combines comfortable accommodation, modern finishes and an enviable location close to virtually everything Harlow has to offer.

Whether you are taking your first step onto the property ladder, searching for a convenient home close to transport connections, or looking for an investment opportunity in a well-connected town, this apartment deserves your attention.

One of its greatest advantages is undoubtedly its position. Imagine leaving your front door and having shopping centres, supermarkets, coffee shops, restaurants, entertainment venues, medical facilities and public transport all within easy reach.

Yet despite this fantastic urban convenience, Harlow's wonderful green spaces, parks, woodland walks and surrounding Essex countryside are never far away.

Inside, the apartment provides approximately 575 sq ft of well-planned accommodation, including a particularly generous reception/dining room, a stylish modern kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom.

The fresh white décor and attractive wood-effect flooring give the property a wonderfully clean, modern appearance. They also provide the perfect blank canvas for a new owner to add their own furniture, colours and personality.

The Accommodation

Reception/Dining Room - 17'9" x 12'1" (5.40m x 3.68m)

The impressive reception/dining room is undoubtedly one of the property's standout features.

Generously proportioned and filled with natural light, this attractive living space offers plenty of versatility for relaxing, entertaining and everyday living.

A particularly appealing feature is the recessed window area, which introduces additional light and character while creating a natural position for a dining table.

Imagine enjoying breakfast beside the window, hosting friends for dinner or settling down on the sofa for a relaxing evening after work.

The room comfortably lends itself to both lounge and dining areas, with sufficient space for a substantial sofa, television unit and dining furniture.

Fresh white walls and stylish wood-effect flooring enhance the feeling of space, while multiple windows make the room wonderfully bright and inviting.

There is also potential to incorporate a discreet home-working area, particularly useful for buyers who occasionally work remotely.

An attractive archway provides access to the kitchen, creating a pleasant connection between the two rooms.

Contemporary Fitted Kitchen - 8'5" x 7'11" (2.57m x 2.41m)
