Essex House comprises two self-contained office buildings within the Astra Centre, offered as either two separate units or combined into a single large suite. Unit 4 is finished to a good standard with additional eaves accommodation; Unit 3 is undergoing modest refurbishment. Together they provide flexible open-plan and smaller cellular offices, fitted kitchen facilities and WCs on each main floor.
Practical strengths include 33 off-street car parking spaces, air conditioning, double glazing and fast broadband/mobile connectivity. The site sits just off Edinburgh Way within walking distance of Harlow Town and Harlow Mill stations, Tesco superstore and out-of-town retail parks, giving good commuter and amenity access. Junctions 7 and 7a of the M11 are around 4 miles away.
There are material issues buyers must note: Unit 3 carries a poor EPC (E-120) and Unit 4 is D-82; Unit 3 requires completion of its refurbishment. The surrounding area is classed as deprived with a very high local crime rate, which may affect staff perception, security costs and lettability. Tenure is stated as unknown and interested parties should satisfy themselves on rates and tenure details.
Overall the property suits investors or owner-occupiers seeking mid-sized suburban office accommodation with strong parking provision and transport links, who are prepared to manage area-related risks and address EPC shortcomings where required.
