143 Mallows Green, Harlow, CM19 5SD

Description ** guide price £185,000 - £195,000** Jukes Estate Agents are pleased to bring to market this very spacious two-bedroom second-floor flat on the outskirts of Harlow.

The second-floor flat has plenty of living space with a large lounge with space for a dining table, good size kitchen with modern units, two very good sized double bedrooms and the current owners have maximised the space and been very clever in adding a third bedroom which could also be used as an office, but primarily this is a two-bedroom flat.

Parking is plentiful with lots of street parking and a car park to the rear just behind the communal garden so this really is the ideal property if you want to get on the property ladder or are an investor, as the rental yield is very good.

**The property is being sold by our secure sale method** Living in the Katherines area of Harlow (south-west of Hare Street and north-west of Sumners) feels, for many locals, like being part of a quieter, family-oriented neighbourhood on the edge of a larger town.

Residents describe it as clean, peaceful and friendly with a strong community vibe and green spaces nearby - qualities some people specifically value when choosing where to settle.

The neighbourhood forms part of Harlow's patchwork of estates originally built as part of the post-war New Town, where each area blends residential streets with local shops, parks and easy connections into the central town.

People living in or around Katherines benefit from Harlow's comprehensive transport links: The town sits just off the M11 motorway, making road travel to London, Cambridge and Stansted straightforward, and Greater Anglia train services from Harlow Town and Harlow Mill stations connect to London Liverpool Street and beyond.

A car is often useful in daily life - not every local journey is well covered by public transport - but the trade-off is proximity to countryside lanes and cycle paths that weave around the town and out towards villages like Roydon.

Harlow itself offers amenities most residents need close at hand: Shopping at The Water Gardens and The Harvey Centre, local cafes and pubs scattered across neighbourhoods, extensive green spaces including Harlow Town Park, which is one of the biggest urban parks in Britain with gardens, trails, playgrounds and community events, and a lively arts and leisure programme.

There are good primary and secondary school options in and around Harlow, though perceptions of quality can vary by area and it's worth visiting specific schools if you have children.

Just beyond Harlow, a short drive or cycle ride brings you to Epping, a historic market town with its own distinct character and amenities.

Epping has a traditional high street with independent boutiques, cafes and weekly markets and is beloved for its access to Epping Forest, a vast ancient woodland perfect for walking, cycling and outdoor pursuits - especially appealing if you enjoy open countryside on your doorstep yet still want urban conveniences and a direct Tube link into central London via the Central Line.

To the west of Harlow lies the village of Roydon, a smaller, more rural settlement with a strong sense of local history.

Roydon is next to the River Stort and Stort Navigation canals, has its own village centre with a primary school and community amenities, and even a picturesque Roydon Marina Village where locals and visitors enjoy waterside walks, a café and seasonal markets.

Trains from Roydon station also link you back into London and Cambridge, making it a good choice if you want village tranquillity but still need commuter links.

Living around Harlow, Katherines and the nearby towns and villages offers a blend of urban convenience and countryside appeal.

You have access to major transport routes and local services within Harlow, extensive green spaces to explore on foot or by bike, and the quieter, more traditional English town or village life in places like Epping and Roydon.

Some parts of Harlow's estates have mixed reputations socially, but many families and long-term residents enjoy the affordability and community feel compared with other commuter towns closer to London.
