Featuring crisp white cabinetry with striking black trim, a rare integrated white oven ensures a cohesive design, while a handy breakfast bar keeps things casual and sociable.
At the rear, the generous 211 sq ft reception room is bathed in natural light all day, thanks to a wide stretch of windows and a glazed door that opens onto the garden beyond.

Upstairs, you’ll find three well-proportioned bedrooms.

The second double bedroom offers 106 sq ft of space, while the third, is a well-designed single at 69 sq ft.
The family bathroom features a walk-in shower, a cabinet-mounted sink with a large mirror, and spotlighting to perfect your look. Thoughtfully designed with ample storage for towels and essentials, the soft downlighting creates a calming, spa-like feel.
With excellent renovation potential, this is your opportunity to craft a modern family haven in a sought-after location.

A WORD FROM THE OWNER....
"3 Harman Close holds a very special place in my heart — it’s the home my parents brought me to as a newborn, and it has been our family home ever since it was built in the early 1970s. This is the very first time it has ever been offered for sale. I loved growing up in the Close. In the 1980s, the neighbourhood was full of friendly faces, with regular community barbecues and a true sense of togetherness. It was a safe, welcoming place for a kid to ride around on a BMX, and it remains one of the quietest and most family-friendly areas you’ll find. It’s just a five-minute walk to Highams Park Lake, and when I began working in London, commuting was easy, with only a 25-minute journey into the city. I have fond memories of looking out of the windows across the garden and open field beyond — and even today, you’ll often spot squirrels smuggling apples along the fence line or catch a cricket match being played on a sunny weekend. This home has given us many happy memories over the years, and I hope it brings the next family just as much joy."
