Summary - 7 Curteys, Old Road CM17 0JG
5 bed 2 bath Detached
Five-bedroom detached with heated pool, double garage and large driveway in private Old Harlow cul-de-sac.
Five bedrooms over three floors with flexible rooms and study
Set in a private cul-de-sac in Old Harlow, this substantial five-bedroom detached house suits a family seeking space and practical extras. The home is arranged over three floors and provides flexible living: a study, three reception rooms, a conservatory, and a utility room alongside a kitchen with fitted units. The double garage/workshop is fully air-conditioned and the large driveway fits around six cars — useful for multi-car households and visiting family.
Outside offers a private garden with decking, lawn, a heated swimming pool, jacuzzi spa and a changing room with shower facilities. These leisure features create a ready-made family hub but will need ongoing maintenance and servicing (pool/jacuzzi equipment and the changing-room plumbing). The property dates from the early 1990s, has double glazing and mains gas central heating via a boiler and radiators.
Practical points to note: broadband speeds are slow in this area despite excellent mobile signal, and the property falls in an expensive council tax band. Crime rates are higher than average locally; buyers should consider security measures. There is clear potential for updating and personalisation throughout — a good opportunity for a family wanting space with scope to modernise.
Local amenities include several primary and secondary schools (Ofsted-rated Good for nearby primaries), parks, bus connections and local shops, making daily life straightforward. The property is freehold and presents a roomy, well-equipped family home in a comfortable neighbourhood with strong lifestyle appeal if you’re prepared for the maintenance demands that come with pool and leisure facilities.
