Two Bedrooms, Two Parking Spaces & a Balcony? Yes, Please!

Welcome to Blackthorn Drive, Harlow — a bright and surprisingly spacious two-bedroom first-floor apartment that ticks plenty of boxes, with a few lovely extras thrown in for good measure..

If you're looking for natural light, practical storage, your own outside space and parking without the daily game of “who got there first?”, this one deserves a closer look.

Step through the front door and you're welcomed into a practical entrance hallway, complete with fire doors and not one, but two useful storage areas. Coats, shoes, hoovers, suitcases and all those things you definitely need but don't necessarily want on display finally have somewhere to live!

One of the storage areas also houses the combi boiler, serving the property's central heating and hot water — keeping things warm, cosy and convenient throughout the year.

The real heart of the home is the open-plan lounge and kitchen. Bright, sociable and easy to live in, it's a space that works just as well for a quiet evening on the sofa as it does for having friends over.

And when the sun makes an appearance? Simply step from the lounge onto your private balcony. Morning coffee, an evening drink or just five minutes of fresh air — it's a lovely little extension of the living space.

Bedroom one comes with its own en-suite shower room, so there's no need for a morning bathroom queue. It's a comfortable principal bedroom with the added privacy and convenience of its own facilities.

The second bedroom is another real plus, featuring dual-aspect windows that bring in loads of natural light. It would make a brilliant second bedroom, guest room, nursery or a rather nice home office for anyone who's had enough of working from the kitchen table!

There's also a separate main bathroom, finished with attractive tiling for a smart, clean and easy-to-maintain look.

Practical touches continue throughout the apartment, including central heating, lino flooring in appropriate areas and generous hallway storage.

And then there's the parking…

The apartment benefits from a carport with two parking spaces — a genuinely useful feature, particularly for a two-bedroom home. Two cars? No problem. One car and regular visitors? Even better.

Location, location… and an easy trip to the station.

The property is conveniently positioned close to Gilden Way and within easy reach of Harlow Mill, with Harlow Mill railway station approximately 0.7 miles away — ideal for commuters or anyone who likes having rail connections within easy reach.

The property also comes with the benefit of a long lease, adding another tick to the list for buyers looking for a home with longer-term appeal.

Why we think you'll love it: Two good-sized bedrooms, an en-suite, separate main bathroom, a bright dual-aspect second bedroom, open-plan living, private balcony, plenty of storage, two parking spaces and Harlow Mill Station approximately 0.7 miles away.

In other words, there's a lot packed into this first-floor apartment.

Bright, practical and ready to be made your own — Blackthorn Drive could be the one you've been scrolling for.
