About Ashdon
Ashdon is a quiet rural village in northwest Essex where you'll find spacious homes at above-average prices — detached houses average £661,500. It's a settled neighbourhood with low crime rates and very little anti-social behaviour.
Day-to-day amenities are thin on the ground. You've got a couple of pubs and nature reserves, plus a Good-rated primary school, but you'll need a car for shopping, healthcare and getting to work. The A roads nearby do give you decent access to Saffron Walden and Cambridge though.
Nearly half the residents work from home, which shows how the area's attracted people in flexible, professional roles. If you're buying an older property, you'll benefit from the low rainfall and clean air here — damp risk is lower than in many other parts of the country.
