Ongar Road, Abridge, RM4

Nestled in the heart of the sought-after village of Abridge, this charming two-bedroom ground floor apartment is set within the attractive development of The Chestnuts. This home offers a rare combination of peaceful, semi-rural living with excellent access to transport links and local amenities, making it ideal for first-time buyers, downsizers, or anyone looking to enjoy a quieter lifestyle without losing connection to the city.

The property boasts a spacious open-plan kitchen and living area that flows seamlessly onto a private patio space. Although the garden is communal, the current owners enjoy their own dedicated area directly accessible from the living room—an unwritten arrangement that allows for a lovely, semi-private outdoor retreat. It’s the perfect spot for relaxing with a morning coffee, entertaining friends, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings and mature greenery.

Inside, the apartment is light, bright, and well-proportioned throughout. With two generously sized bedrooms and a stylish shower room, the layout has been designed for easy living. The open-plan configuration lends itself beautifully to modern lifestyles, offering both comfort and practicality in equal measure.

Abridge is a picturesque village known for its strong sense of community and charming village feel. Local highlights include traditional pubs, independent shops, countryside walks, and access to the River Roding, all while being just a short drive from Theydon Bois Central Line station for quick links into London. The village also benefits from excellent road connections, including easy access to the M11 and M25, making it a highly convenient location for commuters.

Parking is available within the development, though not allocated. Overall, this delightful home presents a fantastic opportunity to enjoy the best of both worlds—village charm with city accessibility—and should be viewed to be fully appreciated.
