A VIBRANT NEW COMMUNITY. JUST 31 MINS FROM LONDON. Planned in 1947 as one of the first New Towns, Harlow was designed to offer a better quality of life from overcrowded London. Innovative features at the time were the first pedestrian precinct and sports centre, and an abundance of green open spaces. Another of Harlow’s progressive approaches was hosting a permanent, public exhibition of sculptures in the town. It’s this feature that gives Atelier its name; the word means an artist’s studio or workshop. Atelier is a Countryside development in partnership with Home Group. With a wide choice of house styles and accommodation, all benefitting from the superb Countryside design and specification, it’s a development suitable for first time buyers, couples and growing families alike. ANCIENT & MODERN. TOWN AND COUNTRY. FOR EVERY PACE OF LIFE. Harlow is a town of contrasts. The Old Town brims with period houses and country pubs, infused with charm and medieval history. By contrast, the New Town enjoys a blend of striking contemporary architecture, an excellent selection of retail and leisure amenities and a host of green, open spaces. Just over one-third of the town is parkland or fields including many public footpaths, extensive cycle tracks, woodlands, large expanses of water and canals. Parndon Mill, Harlow SHOP Harlow offers two shopping centres, The Harvey Centre and The Water Gardens (each less than three miles from Atelier), plus a wide choice of high street names and independent shops around the town. In addition, Harlow Market takes place four times a week at its new location in Broad Walk and East Gate. DINE Whether you’re looking to eat in Harlow itself, or venture a little further afield, there are plenty of tempting pubs and restaurants to sample. From Italian food at Marco’s in Roydon, to traditional British food in The Dusty Miller pub on Burnt Mill Lane. The Garden of India and Moonlight Tandoori are close to Atelier, as is The Rainbow and Dove, a charming gastropub. George the Fourth pub in Sawbridgeworth and Smiths in Ongar (recognised for its seafood) are also well worth visiting. CULTURE Sited throughout the town are over sixty sculptures of national significance, from world renowned artists including Henry Moore, Elisabeth Frink, Auguste Rodin and Barbara Hepworth. The town is also served by two theatres, the Harlow Playhouse and the Victoria Hall Theatre, and two Cineworld cinemas. SPORT From badminton to boxing, cricket to judo and football to sub-aqua, Harlow offers a wide choice of sports clubs to suit all abilities. Harlow Leisurezone (3 miles from Atelier) offers all the facilities you’d expect from a modern sports centre including a pool and an extensive range of fitness classes. EDUCATION Harlow and the surrounding areas offer a good selection of schools at all levels both in the state and independent sector, including the Burnt Mill Academy which was rated ‘Outstanding’ in its last Ofsted report, Mark Hall School rated “Good” by Ofsted, Passmores Academy and Harlow College which offers a good choice of academic, business and vocational courses and is well-known for its Journalism Centre. VILLAGE LIFE ON Great Amwell Nature Reserve YOUR DOORSTEP Surrounded by beautiful Essex and Hertfordshire countryside, Harlow is the ideal location for energetic walks or restful strolls. Living at Atelier you’re close to a number of charming, historic villages including Abbess Roding, Great Amwell, Nazeing and Roydon. Spend time here amongst rural farmland, village greens and ponds, medieval churches and traditional country pubs and you’ll discover a real antidote to modern living.
