Chippingfield, Harlow, Essex

Property Description
Situated in the highly regarded Chippingfield development in Old Harlow, this substantial three-bedroom semi-detached family home offers generous accommodation, a particularly large rear garden and excellent potential for further improvement.
One of the property’s standout features is its exceptionally generous garden plot, which backs directly onto the local cricket ground, providing an attractive open outlook and an excellent outdoor space for family life, entertaining and gardening.
Internally, the property offers a flexible layout arranged over three levels, making it an ideal home for a growing family or buyers looking for additional space to work from home.
The ground floor opens into a welcoming entrance hall, leading to a spacious lounge and separate dining room. The dining room provides direct access to the kitchen, creating a practical layout for everyday family living and entertaining.
To the side of the property, the kitchen opens into a useful second entrance lobby, currently utilised by the owners as a utility area. Off this lobby is a versatile home office, providing a dedicated workspace away from the main living areas.
To the first floor are three well-proportioned double bedrooms, providing excellent accommodation for a family, together with the main family bathroom.
The converted loft space provides another valuable area of accommodation and could be used as a home office, teenager’s retreat, playroom, hobby room or additional relaxation space, depending on the needs of the new owner.
Externally, the property benefits from a large rear garden, considerably larger than many plots within the development. The garden offers plenty of scope for families, keen gardeners or buyers looking to create an impressive outdoor entertaining space. The property’s position backing onto the cricket ground further enhances the feeling of space and privacy.
There is also considerable potential for a new owner to personalise, modernise and potentially extend the property, subject to the necessary planning consents and regulations.
