Property description
FIVE BEDROOMS, SECURE GATED GROUNDS AND A POTENTIAL ANNEX.
This is a quite exceptional home with lovely countryside views, extensively renovated, with a stylishly designed interior. Tall windows and glazed doors allow an abundance of natural light into all principal rooms.
The bright and spacious accommodation is arranged as follows.
On the ground floor, an impressive reception hall with rustic Travertine tile flooring has underfloor heating which extends through to the kitchen and orangery. A double storey height window overlooks the front with countryside views beyond. The comprehensively fitted kitchen/breakfast room with granite worktops features a central island/breakfast bar and integrated appliances including, Miele coffee machine, microwave, wine chiller and dishwasher and a Brittania twin oven and six ring gas hob. The kitchen has a full open aspect to the orangery with lantern roof allowing access to the garden. An adjoining utility room also has direct access to the garden. Double doors open from the kitchen to the spacious lounge and this combined area provides a superb entertaining space. The lounge has triple twin doors opening to the garden and there is a further family/sitting room, study and cloakroom.
On the first floor a bright galleried landing leads to a master bedroom with its own balcony and en suite shower room/WC, four further bedrooms, one with Juliette balcony and two further bathrooms one of which is incomplete and requires fitting.
Externally, the house is well screened from the country lane by tall hedging and two sets of electric security gates, one leading to the gravel forecourt for parking and the other to the large detached double garage with tall roof space and adjoining room which, combined, might provide useful annex potential, subject to planning. The predominantly south backing gardens with external lighting and security cameras, wraparound the house and are laid mainly to lawn with large paved patio.
Despite its' rural outlook, \"The Laurels\" is very well located for access to the M11 via junction 7, leading to the M25, Stansted airport, and nearby towns of Epping, with Central Line access to the City and West End, Churchgate Street and Old Harlow with its well regarded primary school and St Nicholas independent school. The nearest overhead rail service is from Harlow for Liverpool St and Cambridge.
Agents Note :- The house operates with two fuel systems, LPG for the kitchen and oil for the central heating. A Klargester services the drainage.
