Hansells Mead, Roydon, Harlow

A beautifully presented and stylish detached family home in an excellent central village location just a short walk from the station.

Overall Description - This superb modern family home was built in 2016 and has been extensively remodelled and improved by the current owners. Improvements include converting the loft to create a master suite with French doors onto a glass Juliet balcony and luxury en-suite with stylish free standing bath, replacing an exterior wall in the kitchen with tri-folding glass doors to provide access and let in so much more light, and even converting the rear porch into a proper utility room. They have also tastefully landscaped the back garden with granite patio areas, raised beds with integral seating and a garden studio room. It is now the ideal low-maintenance space to entertain friends and family. The property, which now has three good-sized double bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms, has a lovely light and contemporary feel throughout and is very practical in terms of layout and design. There is a private driveway to the front with ample parking and the house is only around a ten minute walk from the station. If you are looking for a modern family home in a pretty village that is an easy commute to London then viewing is highly recommended. Please book in for the Open House from 10am to 11am on Saturday the 31st of August. To watch the virtual video guided tour of this property just search for "Willow House, Roydon" on You Tube.
