Set in the heart of Abridge village, this detached three-bedroom bungalow sits on a large plot with a long private driveway and garage. The house offers generous internal space (approximately 1,677 sq ft) across single-storey living: two reception rooms, a conservatory and a sizeable rear garden — a rare find for village locations. Local amenities, pubs and cafes are an easy stroll away; Theydon Bois Central Line station is about a five-minute drive.
The property is offered chain-free and presents clear scope for improvement and extension (subject to planning permission). For a growing family it can be lived in as-is while you plan upgrades, or it offers a straight renovation/development project for someone wanting to add value. The bungalow has traditional mid-20th century features such as a stone fireplace and wood paneling that could be retained or replaced during modernisation.
Buyers should note material considerations: the house needs updating throughout, has a single bathroom, an EPC rating of E and is in Council Tax Band F (expensive). There is a medium flooding risk for the area. These are important factors for budgeting any refurbishment and insurance costs.
Abridge is well placed between Theydon Bois, Chigwell and Ongar, with good road links to the M11/M25, quality state and independent schools nearby, and plenty of outdoor space in Epping Forest. For families seeking space and a village lifestyle, or investors looking for a renovation opportunity in a desirable commuter area, this bungalow offers a practical blank canvas.
