Description
Prime Plot with Full Planning Permission - Edge of Ongar, CM5 - Stunning Essex Countryside Setting - A rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a fully consented building plot in an elevated position on the edge of Ongar (CM5), surrounded by the breathtaking Essex countryside and enjoying far-reaching rural views.
This exceptional site benefits from full planning permission for a striking contemporary single-storey eco home (1463 sqft), offering the perfect foundation for a self-builder to create a truly bespoke dream residence. The approved design provides for a beautifully arranged modern home comprising three generous bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite, together with a well-appointed main family bathroom. At the heart of the home is an impressive open-plan kitchen, living and dining space, thoughtfully designed for modern family life and entertaining. A separate utility room enhances practicality, while the inclusion of an existing tiled mosaic swimming pool presents a rare opportunity to incorporate a luxury outdoor leisure feature into the finished home.
Sustainability and efficiency sit at the heart of the approved scheme. The property is designed to include an air source heat pump, EV charging point and a highly insulated structure, ensuring reduced energy consumption and protection against rising utility costs for years to come. The overall concept blends contemporary architectural styling with forward-thinking eco credentials.
Perfectly positioned in the beautiful Essex countryside, the plot enjoys the tranquillity of a semi-rural setting while remaining exceptionally well connected. Epping Central Line station lies within approximately nine miles, providing direct access into Central London, while the M11 (Harlow junction) is within around seven miles, offering swift links to the M25, Stansted Airport and major road networks. Locally, the property is within walking distance of two popular restaurants and a recently renovated country pub, while the village also benefits from a primary school and traditional parish church. This is a wonderful opportunity for a self-builder to turn dreams into reality - a chance to create a home to your own specification, your own style and your own choice of finishes, in a setting that perfectly balances countryside charm with commuter convenience.
Plots of this calibre, in such a desirable edge-of-village Essex location, are increasingly rare.
