About this home
Steeped in history and surrounded by beautiful Essex countryside, welcome to The Matching Laundry. Built in the 1830s and formerly home to the Moor Hall Estate laundry, this impressive property has been lovingly transformed into a stand-out family home. Something special - we are in love with this one! Retaining many of its original features, this is a home with beauty, warmth and charm. Complete with five bedrooms, a stunning shaker kitchen with its Aga and adjoining utility, four receptions rooms, ground floor WC, plus an entrance to wow, there’s plenty of function and flexibility. From the start, you cannot help but be impressed - the gated driveway and sizeable garage offer parking aplenty, plus the lush green surrounds provide space and privacy for kids and waggy tailed friends to run free. Deserving a special mention is the main living room with its gorgeous cast iron fireplace and twin french doors onto the garden beyond. As does the downstairs bathroom, comprising both a roll top tub and dreamy shower to wash the day away. Across the first floor (split across the breadth of the home) are five double bedrooms plus a shower room. Outside the extensive grounds are full of the wow factor! A spacious garage with previous planning permission for an annexe offers ample parking space, or indeed a fabulous gym or yoga studio perhaps. The breath-taking grounds overlooking the Essex countryside provide the ultimate summer hosting spot. Think garden parties or summer soirees. The Matching Laundry is a dream venue! Located between Matching Tye and Old Harlow, The Matching Laundry offers Essex rural living at its very best. With easy access to the M11 and the nearby stations in Epping and Harlow, commuter links are easy to reach. Some local recommendations include Churchgate Street, home to the superb Saint Nicholas school and nearby Mayfield Bakery, or a gorgeous meal at The Chequers in nearby Matching Green. All told - a superb place to call home.
