New homes for sale in Essex in ideal locations

Situated to the north-east of London, Essex is a largely rural county with a number of picturesque market towns and small hamlets. Connected by farmland and quiet country lanes, the county is a paradise for those who enjoy outdoor pursuits. It's renowned for its peaceful atmosphere, which is a big part of why our new housing developments in Essex are so popular. Whilst it's certainly a tranquil county, those who would prefer a more bustling lifestyle can depend on excellent urban facilities too. Towns like Chelmsford, Colchester and Clacton-on-Sea are hubs for both business and leisure. There are excellent transport links into London as well. This allows for the best of both worlds in terms of countryside and metropolitan living across all our developments in this beautiful county.

At Redrow, we have always sought to build our developments in the most desirable areas. We ensure that exceptional facilities and amenities are near to each location - and our new build homes in Essex are no different.
