Summary - 208 208 High Ongar Road, Ongar, CM5 CM5 9LZ
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Spacious family home backing onto open farmland with large garden and garage.
Chain-free three bedroom cottage style detached house
A very attractive cottage-style detached house set in a quiet back-water just north of Ongar, backing directly onto open farmland. The house sits on a very large plot with established gardens, a conservatory, single garage and off-street parking for several vehicles — ideal for families who want outdoor space and countryside views yet easy access to Ongar town centre and local schools.
Inside, the property offers a generous sitting/dining room, kitchen, cloakroom and conservatory on the ground floor, with three good-sized bedrooms and a bath/shower room above. The layout suits family life and provides scope for modest reconfiguration or extension subject to planning. Chain free sale allows for a straightforward purchase timetable.
Notable practical points: the house dates from the early 20th century and appears to have cavity walls without installed insulation, so buyers should factor potential energy-efficiency upgrades and associated costs. There is one bathroom for three bedrooms and some internal updating may be desired to modernise heating controls, finishes and glazing (double glazed but install date unknown).
Location strengths include fast broadband, good primary and secondary schools nearby (including Ongar Academy and High Ongar Primary), low flood risk and direct access to countryside from the garden. Overall this is a spacious, characterful family home on a large plot with clear potential for improvement and adaptation to suit modern family needs.
