Description

This spacious four-bedroom home presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. Nestled near Harlow Common, this chain-free property offers the potential to create a modern family oasis while retaining its nostalgic charm from its original 1980s build. With a generous driveway leading to a double garage, the exterior boasts considerable kerb appeal. The ground floor features a versatile layout with multiple reception areas, a kitchen, utility space, and two WC facilities, all ripe for reconfiguration to enhance contemporary living (subject to planning). Notably, there's an expansive entertaining area and potential for developing an annexe within the additional rooms, contingent upon necessary permissions. Upstairs houses four double bedrooms, with the principal suite benefitting from an en-suite shower room alongside a family bathroom. The secluded garden offers tranquillity, further complemented by the remnants of a former swimming pool structure that can be revitalized into an inviting seasonal gathering space.
