The accommodation

entrance hallway


The generous entrance hallway provides an inviting introduction to the apartment. Its soft, contemporary colour scheme and attractive wood-effect flooring create an immediate sense of warmth, while the hallway connects the main rooms in a practical and convenient arrangement. The apartment is laid out entirely on the ground floor, with no internal stairs.

Living room - approximately 15'1" × 10'7" (4.60M × 3.23M)

The living room is a wonderfully comfortable space in which to unwind, entertain and spend time with family or friends. Its appealing proportions accommodate a substantial sofa, armchair, television and occasional furniture, while stylish pendant lighting, wood-effect flooring and warm feature walls give the room a distinctive character.

Natural light adds to the welcoming atmosphere, and the open connection with the adjoining kitchen helps create a sociable flow between cooking and relaxing. A glazed door opens directly onto the private covered patio, making it easy to enjoy fresh air, a morning coffee or a quiet evening outside.

Fitted kitchen - approximately 8'2" × 7'10" (2.49M × 2.39M)

Practical and attractive, the kitchen offers an efficient L-shaped arrangement of wood-effect wall and base units, contrasting work surfaces and patterned splashback tiling. There is a built-in oven, gas hob, stainless-steel extractor hood and a stainless-steel sink and drainer beneath the window. Cupboards and drawers provide useful storage, while the kitchen's relationship with the living area is ideal for everyday meals and informal entertaining.

Bedroom one - approximately 14'10" × 9'2" (4.52M × 2.79M)

An impressively sized and adaptable room, presently used as a substantial office and creative workspace. The fitted sage-green cabinetry offers generous storage, and the room has space for multiple desks and computer equipment. Alternatively, it could readily be arranged as the principal bedroom, subject to individual furniture requirements. Its dimensions make it particularly attractive to anyone who works from home or needs a flexible space for changing circumstances.

Bedroom two - approximately 11'3" × 8'0" (3.43M × 2.44M)

A comfortable, naturally lit bedroom currently accommodating a bed and additional furniture. With neutral decoration and soft carpeting, it offers a restful setting. Depending on the needs of the purchaser, it would also make a welcoming guest room, nursery, child's bedroom or secondary workspace.

Separate dressing room - approximately 9'11" × 3'11" (3.02M × 1.19M)

A particularly useful feature, this dedicated room provides valuable additional space for clothes, shoes and accessories. The existing arrangement includes hanging storage and furniture, helping to keep the main bedrooms free from clutter. It could equally be used for general household storage if preferred.
Contemporary bathroom


The stylish bathroom features large-format grey stone-effect wall and floor tiles, a full-sized bath with shower over and glazed shower screen, a modern wash hand basin and WC. A large mirror and recessed ceiling lighting complete the contemporary finish. The inclusion of both a bath and overhead shower is ideal for busy mornings and more leisurely evenings.

Private covered patio - approximately 8'0" × 5'2" (2.44M × 1.57M)

The apartment's private covered patio is a welcome extension to the living space. Accessed directly from the lounge, it provides room for comfortable outdoor seating and an opportunity to enjoy fresh air without taking on the maintenance of a conventional garden. The glazed balustrade looks towards landscaped planting and the development's attractive surroundings. It is a lovely spot for a coffee, a book or simply relaxing at the end of the day.
Iceni square - modern living in an attractive setting



Iceni Square forms part of a modern residential development in southern Harlow, close to Commonside Road. The architecture combines contemporary brick-built apartment buildings and houses with landscaped areas, planted borders, paths and green spaces. As the aerial photographs show, the development enjoys an appealing setting among established residential neighbourhoods. This is a location with a sense of community and practical access to the amenities that make day-to-day life easier.
Shared ownership - an opportunity to buy



40% share available for A fixed price of £114,500

Shared ownership can make home ownership more accessible by allowing an eligible purchaser to buy a share of a property rather than paying for the whole property at the outset. Rent is ordinarily payable on the share not owned, alongside any applicable service charges and other leasehold costs. Depending on the lease and housing provider's terms, it may be possible to purchase further shares in the future, a process known as staircasing.

For this apartment, the 40% share is offered at a fixed price of £114,500. Purchasers will need to satisfy the applicable scheme's eligibility and affordability criteria. The precise rent on the remaining share, service charges, lease term and other financial arrangements should be confirmed with Jukes Estate Agents, the housing provider and the purchaser's solicitor before proceeding.
Everyday amenities and shopping


The CM18 location puts residents within reach of local shops, neighbourhood facilities, health services, leisure centres and Harlow's wider retail offering. Staple Tye and Bush Fair provide convenient local shopping and everyday services, including places to pick up essential groceries or enjoy a coffee.

Harlow Town Centre is approximately 1.5-2 miles away, depending on the route and destination. Here residents can enjoy the Harvey Centre, the Water Gardens, well-known retailers, independent businesses, supermarkets, cafés, restaurants and a choice of services. Harlow Playhouse offers theatre, comedy, music and dance, while Harlow Leisurezone caters for swimming, fitness and indoor sport. The combination of neighbourhood convenience and town-centre amenities makes this a highly practical place to call home.

* Longwood Primary Academy, Paringdon Road - approximately 0.3 miles.
