Description

Step inside this inviting two-bedroom ground floor flat, perfectly positioned in the peaceful village of Rettendon, Chelmsford. As you enter, you are greeted by an excellent sized entrance hallway that sets the tone for the space and comfort that continues throughout the home. Both bedrooms are generously sized doubles, giving you plenty of room to relax or set up a home office if desired.

The open plan living area is bright and welcoming, seamlessly flowing into a sleek white modern kitchen fitted with integrated appliances - ideal for both casual breakfasts and entertaining friends.

The modern bathroom offers a fresh, stylish retreat, while a separate utility room provides that extra bit of flexibility, whether you need a dedicated laundry space, a workshop, or a hobby room. With a newly extended long lease of 172 years (currently being finalised), this flat offers peace of mind for years to come. Living here means enjoying the best of both worlds: rural tranquillity and the convenience of being just a short drive from the amenities of Chelmsford, South Woodham Ferrers, and Wickford, with its bustling high street and handy train station just 2.8 miles away.

Step outside and you’ll find yourself surrounded by the calm and greenery of a well-kept communal garden. This shared outdoor space is perfect for unwinding with a morning coffee, catching up with neighbours, or simply soaking up the peaceful village atmosphere.

The garden is a lovely extension of your living space, offering room to enjoy the fresh air without the hassle of maintenance. Whether you fancy a picnic on the lawn or just want a quiet spot to read in the sunshine, the communal garden provides a wonderful backdrop to your daily life.

The property’s setting in Rettendon means you’re never far from countryside walks and open fields, making it ideal for those who love the outdoors but want easy access to shops, schools, and transport links. Imagine weekends spent exploring nearby villages or hopping on the train for a day in the city, then returning home to your cosy, welcoming flat and its peaceful garden surroundings. This is a place where you can truly settle in and make the most of both community living and rural charm.

About Nest in Essex, Rayleigh

Unit 17, Lubards Farm, Hullbridge Road, Rayleigh, SS6 9QG

Nest in Essex — Estate Agency, Reimagined.

We aren’t your typical estate agents (and we’re proud of it).

Nest in Essex was built on one simple belief — estate agency should be better.

Better communication. Better results. Better care.

Founded in 2014 by local agent Nick Cheshire, Nest has grown from a small family-run start-up in Rayleigh into a multi-award-winning agency recognised nationally for outstanding results, service, and innovation.

Our team helps people move — not just houses. We take pride in giving honest advice, creative marketing, and a service built on trust, not contracts. That’s why every client stays in control with our zero-week, zero-notice agreement.

We’ve been named Best Estate Agent in Rayleigh five years running, achieved an average of 100.8% of asking price, and continue to raise the bar for what estate agency should look like.

At Nest, we take our work seriously — but not ourselves.

We believe in people over process, creative thinking, and always doing the right thing.

Whether you’re selling, buying, renting or letting — you’ll feel the difference the moment you speak to us.

📍 Based in Rayleigh, covering South Essex and surrounding areas

🏆 Multi-award-winning team

💬 Transparent, flexible, and genuinely local

Nest in Essex. We don’t just move homes — we move people forward.
