About
Guide Price £450,000–£475,000 Set within the magnificent surroundings of Thorndon Hall, this exceptional three-bedroom second-floor apartment presents a rare opportunity to enjoy refined living within one of Essex’s most distinguished Grade I listed country estates.
Surrounded by approximately sixteen acres of beautifully landscaped communal grounds and positioned beside Thorndon Park Golf Club with direct access into Thorndon Country Park, the setting combines historic grandeur with remarkable tranquillity and far-reaching views across the Essex countryside.
The property is offered with no onward chain.
Approached via a long private driveway that winds through the estate grounds, the impressive mansion building provides elegant communal hallways and lift access to the upper floors.
The apartment itself is bright, spacious and thoughtfully arranged, offering an appealing balance of character and modern comfort.
The accommodation opens into a welcoming entrance hall that provides access to the principal living areas.
A generous living room enjoys an abundance of natural light and creates an inviting space for both relaxation and entertaining, while framing attractive views across the surrounding landscape.
The kitchen and breakfast room is well designed with ample preparation space and modern fittings, creating a stylish yet practical heart of the home.
The principal bedroom suite is particularly impressive, featuring a walk-in wardrobe and a contemporary en-suite bathroom finished to a high standard.
Two further elegantly proportioned bedrooms provide versatile accommodation for family members, guests or a home office, and are served by a modern shower room.
The layout has been carefully arranged to ensure a natural flow between rooms while maintaining a strong sense of space and privacy throughout.
Residents of the estate enjoy extensive communal gardens that provide peaceful surroundings and expansive green spaces rarely associated with apartment living.
The property also includes a private garage within a nearby residents’ block with an electric up-and-over door, power and lighting, together with ample communal parking for residents and visitors.
Despite its tranquil countryside setting, the apartment remains well connected. The property offers convenient access to the A127, A12 and M25, making travel by road straightforward.
Rail services are also easily accessible, with West Horndon Station providing direct services into Fenchurch Street, while Brentwood and Shenfield stations offer fast connections to Liverpool Street and connections towards London Heathrow Airport.
