Full Description: **GUIDE PRICE £300,000 - £325,000** Jukes Estate Agents are delighted to bring to market this delightful large 2 double bedroom end of terraced house in Great Brays Harlow. For sale by way of a conditional sale.*What we love about this property is its secluded location in a part of Harlow that means it is ideally placed for all local amenities. It has Solar Panels installed which means low/no electric bills which is a huge plus! It is also a good size property with 2 large double bedrooms and a large rear garden. It also has new double glazing at the front of the property and a new front door. There is also a new kitchen door and window. Make no mistake, the only reason the current owners are moving from a house they have loved and still love over the 9 years they have owned and lived in it is that they have been given a 'once in a lifetime' opportunity that they simply cannot turn down.You enter the property and find yourself in a nice hallway that allows access to the lounge / diner, the kitchen & of course the stairs.The lounge / diner is some 23.5 sqm (over 250 sqft). It has a large bay window to the front of the property and windows plus a door at the other end that leads into the large rear garden. It also benefits from dark wooden style flooring. To be honest, we see smaller lounge / diners in 3 & even 4 bedroom properties.The kitchen is fully fitted and is galley style. There's a door that also leads into the rear garden. Upstairs there's the family bathroom and two large double bedrooms.Bedroom 1 is a super large double coming in at 12 sqm (130sqft). There is a large window overlooking the front of the property. Bedroom 2 is also a good size double at 10.2 sqm (110 sqft).This bedroom has a large window overlooking the substantial rear garden.The Family Bathroom has the usual bathtub, wash basin & WC.The is a small easily manageable front garden but it is the rear garden that makes this lovely family home extra special. Ever since Covid and the dreaded lockdowns, green space has been a major driving factor for buyers. This rear garden is larger than average and whilst laid mainly to lawn & reasonably low maintenance, it is a fabulous 'blank canvas' for keen gardeners and could be turned into something really amazing if required. This is a fantastic starter home or indeed for those downsizing. However, in 2025 it is no surprise that location is still the number one priority when buyers are choosing their first or next home. With this house, it is comforting to know that it is ideally placed from all major Harlow amenities:Primary school (Ofsted rated good) 0.5 miles.Secondary school (Ofsted rated good) 0.6 miles.Sixth form college (Ofsted rated good) 0.6 miles.GP surgery 0.7 miles.Dentist 0.7 miles.Harlow Town Centre 1.5 miles.Harlow Town Railway Station (direct lines to London Liverpool St, Stansted Airport, Cambridge) 2.2 miles.Princess Alexandra Hospital 2.1 miles.M11 1.7 miles.Ultra fast broadband is readily availableAll major mobile networks have a very good signal as Harlow is 5G town.
