ask the expert… …sales director

Q

How do I find the right solicitor to handle my house sale transaction smoothly, efficiently and with no unnecessary delays?

Alex Oppenheim, Associate Director of John D Wood & Co Battersea, replies...

A

When it comes to your solicitor, take your time and choose wisely. It is a muchused quote by oil well firefighter Red Adair: “If you think using a professional is expensive then try using an amateur.” But is there a lesson to be learnt?

Recently, my wife and I bought a house outside London and, like all good estate agents, I agreed terms on my purchase without my own property even being on the market.

I was given four weeks to exchange contracts, with the added pressure of another purchaser trying to gazump us. I know, it’s outrageous an estate agent being gazumped, or perhaps some might say, revenge is a dish best served cold! In short, we found a buyer for our house and agreed terms quickly. But what struck me, in a positive way, was the attitude and actions of the solicitors involved.

One does not have to spend a king’s ransom on solicitors and use large firms. There is, though, great sense when buying or selling in London to use an experienced London solicitor. They understand the vagaries of leases and share of freehold structures and can streamline the timescales of the process.

The real key to success is communication, especially with the selling estate agent. Simply being copied in on emails for outstanding enquiries will ensure a prompt response. We can also help!

I have spent many a happy hour in the Wandsworth Council microfiche archive room searching for historical planning consents. Often time is of the essence and with the cost of purchasing so high, failure to exchange contracts can be expensive and, of course, deeply frustrating.

So when it comes to your property transaction, meet your lawyer well in advance and provide them with all the information they need. Life is all about timing and we have agreed many a sale with either the vendor or buyer (sometimes both) being overseas. But if the homework is done in advance – for example, by providing copies of relevant consents for any alterations carried out and completing the Property Information form – then everything can proceed at a pace and conclude successfully.

At Jacksons, we understand that exceptional properties demand exceptional treatment.

The kind of treatment you get with Jacksons Premier.

marketview Live near a good High Street for added value, says Cheryl Markosky

N

ew research from Savills that will gladden the heart of retail guru and Queen of Shops Mary Portas shows that living close to a thriving High Street could add as much as 20 per cent to the value of your home.

Nathan Yendle, head of Savills Clapham Lettings, says: “Northcote Road is really a hub offering everything you need as a resident – restaurants, bars, dry-cleaners, clothing boutiques and jewellers – which certainly draws tenants in their hordes.”

Yendle argues that a typical four to five-bedroom house Between the Commons will attract about 10 to 20 per cent (£100 to £200) more a week for buy-to-let landlords than a house outside these boundaries. A great deal of this is due to the offerings on Northcote Road, along with the great schools in the local area.

Chesterton Humberts’ Tim Philips in Battersea believes that Between the Commons flats are often £100,000 to £150,000 more expensive than their counterparts north of Battersea Rise, while houses are on average £300,000 dearer.

“We recently sold a two-bedroom garden flat on Altenburg Gardens, close to Clapham Junction and Northcote Road, for £10,000 over the asking price of £700,000. In comparison, we have a two-bedroom flat on Marjorie Grove, further away from Northcote Road, on at the lower price of £575,000,” he explains.

Putney High Street is another vibrant and bustling road for shopping, dining and nightlife, as well as having the best transport links in the area, points out Chris Firth of Chesterton Humberts. “Therefore, it’s no surprise that demand for flats and houses close to the High Street is far higher than for properties further away.”

One example is the recent sale of a two-bedroom ground floor flat on Werter Road, just off Putney High Street. “The buyer said the location is the main reason she offered over the asking price of £650,000,” says Firth.

In contrast, he says a similar flat on West Hill, about a mile from the High Street, was more difficult to shift, with an asking price of £495,000 (almost 30 per cent less than one close to the High Street).Although it might look like you’re getting better value when you buy a long way from a lively High Street, in the long run you won’t reap the same rewards in terms of capital, or rent if you decide to let out the property. Another reason perhaps to listen to Portas and embrace all that’s good about our High Streets.

village vibe James Weston, Manager of John D Wood & Co Wandsworth, gives South a guided tour of Wandsworth ATTRACTIONS Wandsworth has more green space than any other London borough thanks to Wandsworth and Clapham Commons. Both play host to a huge variety of activities including rugby, football, tennis, cricket and independently-run boot camps all through the year.

SHOPS Wandsworth residents are spoilt for choice with Northcote and Bellevue Roads providing a wide range of boutiques, bakeries, butchers and delicatessens, and market stalls. In Wandsworth town centre itself, the newly refurbished Southside Centre now has a Rossopomodoro and a Wagamama as well as a Cineworld multi-screen cinema. We have heard that Wandsworth Council has also just approved plans for the redevelopment of the Ram Brewery site, which will create over 600 new homes as well as shops, restaurants and bars.

TOP STREETS The most desirable family houses are on the streets which make up the Toast Rack and Spencer Park, where most houses are comfortably over £2m and a significant proportion over £3m. The Tonsleys have long been popular due to their proximity to Wandsworth Town railway station and charming architecture. Anything

coming to market in the Magdalen Estate is quickly snapped up as it falls within the catchment area for Beatrix Potter School.

RESTAURANTS AND PUBS No list of restaurants in Wandsworth would be complete without mention of Michelin-starred Chez Bruce, Bellevue Road. Roxie, on Garratt Lane, is an unbelievably good steak restaurant offering great value for money. Pubs are also abundant with the Leather Bottle and its fabulous family-friendly beer garden, the Hope, the Althorp, Brinkley’s and the County Arms all offering good food and well priced wines.

LEISURE As well as the facilities on the Common, there is the Virgin Active Gym, Pure Gym and the Cineworld at Southside.

For something a little more interactive, try Recipease on Northcote Road for cooking lessons and Make Your Cake on Bellevue Road.

SCHOOLS One of the main reasons people move to Wandsworth is the wide selection of excellent schools. Local state schools include Beatrix Potter, Allfarthing, Honeywell, Bellevue and Swaffield primary schools, all with good or excellent Ofsted ratings. Private schools include Finton House, Northcote Lodge and Broomwood Hall, and Emmanuel.

celebritywatch He’s the first Wimbledon men’s singles champion for 77 years, but now the frenzy has calmed you may not find Andy Murray wallowing in the glory around SW19.

Sporting superstar Murray lives with glamorous girlfriend Kim Sears on Surrey’s Crown Estate Oxshott, and he could be one of your neighbours at a six-bedroom house built here by developer Octagon.

For sale at £5.5m with Gascoigne Pees, the luxury 7500 sq ft home on Princes Drive has a large landscaped garden. You may also get the chance to say hi to other locals such as Peter Andre, Jamie and Louise Redknapp, and Frank Lampard.

the word Special report by Christopher Lewis, head of Savills Northcote Road

H

ere at Savills in Clapham we have seen a buoyant market at all price ranges. The lack of stock continues to drive the market and has set off the rise in prices seen over the past few months.

Property in Clapham has grown in price by 10.3 per cent over the past year, and is expected to grow by another 22.1 per cent over the next five years. This uplift is partly due to the increase in international buyers.

While figures are low in comparison to other areas of London, Clapham sees approximately 15 per cent of its buyers coming from overseas, and we expect that figure to grow as more and more people realise the value for money on offer here.

Prime roads have achieved record prices per square foot over the past six months, including The Chase and Manchuria Road, both close to Clapham Common. Roads such as these, as well as the popular Nightingale Triangle, continue to charge a premium and a lack of stock has resulted in higher prices.

Approximately 72 per cent of buyers in Clapham are upsizing from smaller properties in more central areas, so the larger four or five-bedroom homes with gardens are quickly snapped up by those with young children or looking to start a family.

We also have a healthy number of first-time buyers who make the most of cheaper flats available in period conversions, while still being within fast commuting distance of the West End and the City. For example, we have just taken on a lovely two-bedroom flat on Marjorie Grove, with a 20ft roof terrace, which is close to the open spaces of Clapham Common and transport links at Clapham Junction. Perfect for a first or second-time buyer.

As we come into the autumn months, we expect the market to become busier within both the core and prime price ranges. From our new office on Northcote Road, we have some excellent new instructions including a beautiful four-bedroom house on Gosberton Road, a seven-bedroom house close to Abbeville Village,

what’shot The raised kitchen and breakfast room of a six-bedroom refurbished house in Earlsfield Road SW18 has steps down to an open plan living area where all the family can relax after dinner.

Black lacquer wall and base units combine with granite work surfaces, and French windows open out into a 70ft south-east-facing rear garden with patio, summer house and shed. The property’s guide price is £1.4m. John D Wood 020 8871 3033.

and a few renovation projects that we expect to sell well.

Interestingly, we are also marketing the former home of Nora Forster, wife of Johnny Rotten on Gowrie Road. The house has been extensively refurbished and extended by developers Standline and is now a fantastic, modern, fourbedroom family house.

There is also a strong pipeline of stock that we will be bringing to the market over the next few months to make the most of the autumn rush.

The lettings market has also been strong with record rental prices being achieved and more and more international tenants coming into the market.

bestbites Nathan Yendle, head of Savills Clapham Lettings, recommends a favourite eatery Numero Uno 139 Northcote Road, Clapham SW11 • 020 7978 5837 Where is it? On the bustling Northcote Road in chichi Clapham.

1

What’s it like? It’s a family-run Italian restaurant featuring a classic look with white tablecloths, and offering a relaxed atmosphere with traditional service.

Italian waiters and waitresses add to the authentic experience.

And the food? Italian food priced between £25 and £40 per head. Generous portions of Italian favourites are followed by delicious desserts and complimentary limoncello. Veal escalope with tomato pasta on the side is my absolute favourite, and their espresso is fantastic.

Keeping you informed about property news and events in your area

Sports aid Needy children in Africa have been given a sporting chance thanks to Jacksons Estate Agents, who have handed over £1,000 to fundraiser Simon Morgan to help provide sports equipment for children at the Tumaini Children’s Home in Mombasa, Kenya.

Jacksons supported Simon’s efforts with financial help for equipment and a contribution to his travel costs for his recent trip to the children’s home to hand over the sports gear. “I’d like to thank them so much for backing the campaign. The looks on the children’s faces made all the hard work so worthwhile,” said Simon.

Jacksons managing director Tony McVeigh said the agency would continue to back deserving charities. “We have always believed that if we can help in some small way then we will - and that was the case with Simon. We wish him well in his further endeavour to bring some happiness to children less fortunate than our own.”

Simon Morgan, left, is pictured receiving the cheque from Jacksons executives Phil Agius and Robert Trindle, along with local children who helped test the sports gear.

Summer fete for Abbie The Cluttons team joined the fun and games at Northcote Road Summer Fete by giving visitors the chance to play giant Jenga and Connect 4, while also serving ice-cold Prosecco and Pimm’s.

Hundreds of children had their faces painted as jungle animals on the Cluttons stall, helping to raise more money for the event’s charity, Abbie’s Army for children’s brain tumour research.

Price growth The prime London residential market has recorded stronger price growth in the past three months than at any time since March 2012, defying expectations that values would flatline this year, according to the Savills quarterly prime London index.

The strongest growth was seen in the predominantly domestic markets of prime South West London – from Fulham to Richmond and Battersea to Wimbledon – where values rose 3.2 ­ per cent in the last quarter.

Annual growth now stands at 8.5 cent, much higher than the 4.4 per cent seen in prime central London.

APPOINTMENTS Matthew Thompson has joined Savills as head of the agency’s Richmond office. Matthew has an in-depth knowledge of Richmond and surrounding areas after 12 years working for estate agencies in Chiswick.

Laura Mayers, who has worked with Field & Sons for more than a year, takes over the role of assistant lettings manager at the agency’s Kennington Branch.

Foxtons won two Gold awards in the Sunday Times Lettings Agency of the Year Awards: Best UK Marketing and Best UK Website.

Music to get you moving Kew the Music, sponsored by Winkworth for the third year running, was another huge success as world-class acts took to the stage in front of Temperate House in Kew Gardens.

Blondie, the Human League, Paul Weller, Jools Holland, Leona Lewis and Bellowhead all headlined the event over six consecutive nights to a crowd of around 41,000 people.

Winkworth had great brand presence at the event including flags, banners and ads under the slogan ‘Let’s get you moving’. One of Winkworth’s branded black taxis also sat among the crowds.

Amber Rampley, Winkworth marketing director said: “Being a part of great events like Kew the Music is a perfect opportunity to increase brand awareness and show our involvement with our local areas and the community.”

Five-a-side junior soccer rocks every Friday night Savills Barnes is sponsoring Friday Night Fives football teams at Rocks Lane Sports Centre, a junior five-a-side league every Friday after school during term time.

Office head Sandra Carline said: “It is a fantastic local league that gets all the local community together. In July we gave away Savills-branded caps to all the winners, and this is something we look forward to continuing.”

Savills also sponsors tennis competitions at Bishops Park.

The booming market has had analysts ripping up their figures. Will it last?

Ross Brien, manager, Hamptons International The market this year has been extraordinary with record prices being achieved in South West London. Balham has seen a marked step-up in prices, and yet values seem to be perfectly comfortable at these new levels.

Whether prices will continue to increase at the same rate for the remainder of the year and beyond will very much depend on the supply of properties coming onto the market and interest rates staying low, which certainly would appear to be the case for the foreseeable future.

It’s also worth noting that we are still seeing increasing numbers of international buyers not only looking for homes in our capital, but also to invest in one of the more stable markets available.

Chris Lewis, head of Savills Northcote Road The Savills Residential Research team has reevaluated its forecasts, as there have been more positive indicators in the current market than at any point over the past few years.

The past few months have shown a period of higher activity and price growth in a market which was expected to show little or no growth this year or next, particularly in prime South West London.

The market here has improved hand-in-hand alongside growth in buyer confidence and low interest rates, and these two factors mean there is capacity for price growth over the next three years or so.

Built when Diana’s family owned Wandsworth B

ack in the mid-1800s when the Spencer family – Princess Diana’s ancestors – owned much of Wandsworth, this grand Victorian villa was built among the meadows and farmland.

The house was commissioned by a local family who at that time were owners of the Alma Hotel on Old York Road, among other sizeable local property investments. It stood in impressive gardens with very few neighbouring buildings.

Today the early Victorian property has been divided, with the front half on the East Hill side developed into high-end contemporary apartments, and the rear half into this impressive four-story family home.

Double-fronted Marney Lodge offers four floors of totally refurbished living space and the property has a distinct rural feel thanks to surrounding greenery and pedestrian-only access.

Built in 1860, the four-bedroom house is set in secure and gated Olympic Mews, a new private road that runs

off East Hill. The property faces due south for excellent light and space, and looks out across an impressive 75ft landscaped garden. It comes with a separate home office or gym, private underground par king, and a 10year Premier Insurance guarantee.

Off the entrance hall are two reception rooms with high ceilings. The larger one has original oak panelling, ceiling mouldings, stained glass windows and a working fireplace. The second has double casement doors that open onto a raised decked area overlooking the garden.

The light, bright kitchen and breakfast room is on the lower ground floor, the same level as a guest bedroom and en suite shower room that could also serve as a playroom, gym or nanny’s room. A study area on the first floor landing has a superb arched window looking out over the gardens.

Sleep soundly on fixed rates

moneytip

£

Government attempts to get the banks lending again are clearly working. The improvement in high loan-to-value (LTV) lending, in particular, has resulted in a surge in the number of first-time buyers.

Average deposits have fallen and continue to do so as lenders offer more innovation and better rates at higher LTVs. The Government announced more detail on the next phase of the Help to Buy scheme, and Leeds Building Society released the Welcome mortgage range, so we expect the number of buyers to continue to rise.

We need confidence to continue to improve in order to persuade more homeowners to trade up and move on, resulting in more stock coming to market.

Plenty of cheap deals to tempt you, reports Duncan Farmer

T

he opportunities for housebuyers and people wanting to remortgage appear to get better by the day.

Rates are falling and lenders are relaxing either the amount they will lend or their borrowing criteria, as banks and building societies compete for the comparatively small pool of customers.

In spite of this largesse, the amount of mortgage lending fell in June and housebuying activity tailed off in July, although the latter could be down to the sizzling temperatures and the distractions of Andy Murray winning Wimbledon, Justin Rose winning the US Open, and comprehensive English victories in the first two Ashes Tests. Oh, and the arrival of Prince George.

Lenders have been doing their bit to add to all this unbridled joy, and mortgage rates have hit historic lows. Take Norwich & Peterborough’s ten-year fixed-rate deal, which has a rate of just 3.84 per cent.

Compared with two-year fixed deals it looks expensive, but up against the Halifax standard variable rate of 3.9 per cent it is cheaper, and of course the Halifax rate can move at will. As most analysts agree the current Bank of England base rate of 0.5 per cent is artificially low and will have

Mark Harris SPF Private Clients

London is 15th in global price table While property prices in London seem to be enjoying continued growth – up 6.9 per cent in the past year, according to Knight Frank – the capital is languishing in 15th place in a table of global house price growth.

Jakarta is top of the league and prices are sprinting ahead at a rate of 27 per cent a year, with Dubai hot on its heels at 21 per cent.

In Europe, however, only St Petersburg (15.3 per cent) and Monaco (5.5 per cent) are ahead of London.

Vienna and Moscow, our nearest challengers, have barely grown at all, while Rome, Paris and Madrid have all seen property prices lower since this time a year ago, as a result of the economic woes in the Eurozone.

to rise in the next three or four years, the Halifax is sure to follow suit.

The beauty of fixed-rate deals is that borrowers know from now until 2023 exactly what their monthly repayments will be. And on a 10-year deal, they can sleep soundly for at least eight or nine years knowing that interest rate movements will not worry them, whereas borrowers with a two-year fix do not have long before they must start looking for a new loan.

The good news for anyone coming off any deal at the moment is that there is an abundance of cheap offers to tempt them, as our best buy charts demonstrate.

Back to the Norwich & Peterborough loan, borrowers need only a 25 per cent deposit, there are no arrangement fees, the valuation is free and there is £200 cashback. Drawbacks? There are not many. You can transfer the mortgage to a new property, but clearing the loan within 10 years will cost you – from seven per cent of the sum owed within the first year tapering down to one per cent in year 10, but for most people this is unlikely to be an issue.

The only problem you might have is getting hold of the cash – Norwich & Peterborough is expecting a flood of applications – but there are alternatives: Yorkshire Bank has a 10-year rate fixed at 3.89 per cent.

EQUITY RELEASE NUMBERS RISING The number of people remortgaging to take money out of their home is rising, thanks to a combination of house price increases, confidence in the future direction of property values, and a need for cheap cash.

The average amount of new equity being released – calculated by the value of the new loan compared with the old one - has climbed from £14,000 a year ago to more than £22,000 today.

While about 10 per cent of this money is being used to fund home improvements, some is being used to repay more expensive debt, such as credit cards and overdrafts, or pay for holidays and new cars.

Affluent borrowers increase earnings

0870 900 7762 for more information

The average housebuyer now has an income of £40,500, up by more than nine per cent on a year ago, according to research from the Mortgage Advice Bureau, which found that in London the average earnings of buyers had risen by more than 10 per cent.

The report suggests that housebuyers’ earnings have overtaken inflation, which currently stands at 2.9 per cent, and average weekly earnings, which are up 3.7 per cent. The Mortgage Advice Bureau said the figures point to “more affluent borrowers driving up the average as they take advantage of the housing market recovery”.

Knock it down and start from scratch Cheryl Markosky talks to a brave owner who tore down a Fifties house and started again

I

t was an exciting day for Natasha Hall when an old house in Lauriston Road was demolished. “We were there the whole day and took loads of pictures and videos,” she says.

Hall’s eagerness at such destruction was understandable, as this was the inauguration of a oneyear building project that allowed her to get rid of an unprepossessing property and start from scratch with something new.

You have to applaud Hall even louder when you hear that she carried out this mammoth task, which finished last June, with three small children (the twins are now nearly four, and her third child five) in tow.

“We’d lived in flats before, but found wardrobes and room sizes too small and I was longing for more space,” explains Hall. Her vision was clear. “I wanted a Georgian-style house that was large, symmetrical and traditional, but with plenty of modern additions.”

Employing local architect Richard Holden and project manager Richard Puddy, Hall also brought her past life to the blueprints. “I grew up in California and was used

to informal, open-plan and outside living. So I made sure there was easy access from the family, kitchen/ breakfast and dining rooms on the ground floor into the garden, and there were bar stools around a counter on a kitchen island where the kids could sit and eat.”

Other Anglo-American touches include a terrific amount of space for guests and nanny, cinema room, gym and sauna in the newly dug-out basement; a cosy area for Hall’s young children on the top floor; and the master bedroom suite luxuriously laid out on the first floor of this roomy 5640 sq ft family house.

Hall’s advice for another buyer keen to acquire a rundown house and replace it with a stylish new home is to plan everything well from the beginning, think clearly about how you live and how you’ll use the house, and make sure you’re on site every day to ensure switches go in the right place and the right shade of mortar is used.

“One mistake we made was to be overly optimistic that the project was almost finished once the exterior was done, but the interior took a long time to complete,” she admits.

“You’re a stone’s throw from the Common and five minutes from the Village” Robert Holmes, Robert Holmes & Co

Hall advises having an extra person on hand to help choose doorknobs, cupboards and colours. “There’s so much choice these days it’s confusing.” Hall also thanks her project manager for introducing her to North London ironmonger Danico Brass, where they sourced nearly everything.

Robert Holmes of estate agent Robert Holmes & Company thinks the biggest advantage to owning the solid and highly finished Lauriston Road house is its superb location. “You’re a stone’s throw from the Common, about five minutes walk to the Village, and you’re very close to excellent schools.”

Where do you live?

Football, rugby or cricket?

Kingston.

What and where was your first London home?

My husband is obsessed with cricket and plays it religiously, so I think I’ll have to side with football.

I bought my first property about ten years ago. It was a good-size, onebedroom first floor flat in Streatham and I absolutely loved the potential and space it offered.

How do you relax?

Dine in, takeaway, or cook at home?

Two – my parents. Having lived in Yorkshire all their lives, they moved to France, learnt to speak fluent (kind of) French, and have enjoyed five happy years there so far.

Dine in definitely. I am not the greatest cook but my husband is fantastic.

What do you consider your greatest achievement?

I have two beautiful children I am immensely proud of.

Favourite open space in London

Richmond Park – as soon as you enter the park, the feeling of calm is so relaxing. We often walk through the extensive grounds for lunch at the Dysart Arms in Petersham. The children can scooter madly yet safely.

Aside from property, what’s your most expensive purchase?

I love dining out and particularly enjoy a nice relaxed Sunday lunch.

Which living person do you most admire and why?

What is your most treasured possession?

Name Rebecca May

What is your favourite book?

Definitely my children – they are absolutely amazing.

ROYAL DENTIST LIVED HERE

New homes update Special report by Sean Ellis, chairman of St James Group

L

ondon’s property market continues to thrive, with the latest figures from Savills showing that South West London has experienced the most significant growth in home prices across the capital over the last quarter. Prime territory, stretching from Fulham to Richmond and Battersea to Wimbledon, has seen impressive annual growth of 8.5 per cent, compared to the 4.4 per cent witnessed in property prices within central London.

Equipped with excellent schools and an established infrastructure complete with amenities, not to mention excellent road and rail links, Roehampton offers a far better value alternative to nearby Putney, Barnes and Wimbledon, where large four to five-bedroom homes can command around £800 per square foot.

Demand for new homes in the area has rocketed.

Last summer we launched Emerald Square, a collection of over 100 houses and apartments located opposite the Roehampton Club, which all sold off plan in just over 12 months.

New to the market this autumn is the final phase of family homes at our award winning development Queen Mary’s Place, located in the grounds of historic Roehampton House. Eight impressive three-storey houses constitute The Quadrant, pictured, each around 2500 sq feet in size, located in an exclusive enclave in a quiet corner of the development. Each home benefits

from its own private garden and off-street parking for two cars.

Designed with architectural flair, the homes provide flexible living accommodation with a ‘super room’ on the ground floor: an expansive 21ft x 20ft family living space incorporating a kitchen, dining and living area.

This room is enhanced by a unique glass lantern ceiling and elegant doors opening onto the patio, allowing natural light to flood throughout the space. There is also a separate generously proportioned formal living room for entertaining and a dedicated utility room on the ground floor.

Upstairs, in response to recent customer feedback, we have incorporated a study on the first floor, away from potential noise from the main family space. In addition, there are five spacious bedrooms – three with en suites, plus a large family bathroom. The master suite boasts its own dedicated dressing room.

Each home is finished with fixtures and fittings of an exceptional standard, including detailed touches such as a pop-up extractor fan in the central kitchen island, a full range of Miele appliances, including two full height fridge freezers and a wine cooler, as well as underfloor heating throughout.

With a secure gated entrance, 24-hour concierge and full CCTV surveillance, a three-bedroom flat at Fairlawns is part of a Grade II listed conversion and renovation that offers modern living space, off-street parking and communal gardens.

The property has a private terrace, double-glazed sash windows, underfloor heating throughout and air conditioning, and is set on the first floor of the former home Sir Edwin Saunders (1814-1901), personal dentist to Queen Victoria.

A 33ft reception room has bay windows and ample space for dining, the fully fitted kitchen has AEG appliances, master and second bedrooms have en suite bathrooms and the third bedroom an en suite shower room. The development faces the open spaces of Putney Heath, and nearest stations are Southfields and Putney.

Do you really think that all estate agents are the same?

Well actually you are probably right, more or less. Even though some big estate agent chains insist that they are more caring, or more passionate or more local!

At Sheraton Law we get great results, and have done so for over the 30 years that we have been dealing with properties around Clapham, Battersea, Balham and Brixton.

We really do believe in courtesy and integrity coupled with a tailored personal service; so why not choose a truly local agent who is caring and passionate about what they do but doesn’t have an expensive commission fuelled corporate culture.

Inspired orangery space A highly unusual three bedroom detached house set within its own walled garden and with the additional benefit of off street parking. Absolutely ideal for someone looking for lateral space, this unique home extends to almost 1,750 sqft and offers wonderful entertaining and living space. The plot was originally the site of a farriery and blacksmith business and the access is still to this day through an unusual archway to Wandle Road. As such the property is incredibly secluded and the hectic comings and goings of southwest London do seem a world away.

The main reception room extends to almost 500sqft but also has access to a large conservatory half the size again. The kitchen is situated centrally in the house so can be closed off or accessed through the sitting room for a more informal feel. The three bedrooms are all good sizes with the master being particularly large and also benefitting from its own en suite shower room.

The entire property was recently refurbished to a high standard, including a completely new roof. Externally the garden is very low maintenance being mainly paved but with plenty of raised beds for the keener gardener.

A WONDERFUL SPOT TO RELAX AFTER A BRACING WALK We’ll search out the details that make your house stand out this autumn Autumn is a great time to sell your home. Everyone’s back from their holidays, rejuvenated and thinking about where they’d like to spend a cosy festive season.

It might be the size and layout, the cracking period features or the local school. And sometimes it might just be that secret nook where you can curl up with a good book. Because these are the things that talk to buyers’ hearts as well as their heads.

Elegant family house in secluded grounds Built in the 1920s, an elegant family house on the prestigious and leafy Coombe Estate is set in secluded grounds of just under an acre. The property stands at the end of a gravel drive lined with yew trees, behind original wrought-iron entrance gates.

A stone fountain is at the centre of the wide and sweeping circular drive in front of the house, bordered by an original wall, watched over by two magnificent listed weeping beech trees, planted at the request of Queen Victoria in memory of Prince Albert.

Current owners have updated the house at Coombe Moore, Coombe Hill Road, to provide three floors of modern living space with many original features retained. There are seven bedrooms

and four bathrooms including an annexe, which could be developed into a guest suite or staff flat.

A dining hall has limed oak panelling and triple doors leading to a terrace.

The double-aspect sitting room overlooks the rear garden and leads to the drawing room, which also has oak panelling and parquet flooring. Off the dining hall is another oak-panelled sitting room.

On the second floor, a large doubleaspect attic room with beamed ceiling would make an ideal office, children’s playroom, or teenager’s bedroom.

southside As seen by Jonathan Dyson, manager of Hamptons Battersea and Wandsworth Where did everyone go?

I often wonder where everyone disappears to for the summer months. Country homes? Parents?

Holidays? Of course, some of these will be the case, but even then, the size of the exodus seems enormous.

I was speaking to some independent shopkeepers last week and two of them are actually considering shutting their shops for the whole of August. Apparently the takings over the summer rarely cover the staff costs and they’re actually better off closed.

The only reason they stay open is that they worry they’ll upset their existing customers that are still around. It seems bizarre that in one of the busiest capital cities of the world, in this age of hard work and austerity measures, we appear to be edging closer and closer to the European style of summer living.

Estate agency is the same. Following a ridiculously busy spring this year, where record prices were being achieved then broken and then broken again, we assumed there would at least be some element of buying and selling to be had over the summer. Yes, of course, there are still some deals to be done, but the phones are strangely quiet and we seem to be leaving answerphone messages for most of the buyers we call.

Given all of this, however, I’m not especially worried that this heralds a fall in the market. We already have nearly a dozen properties that I’m going to launch in September, and the buyers we do speak to are definitely still looking – they’re just not around to view.

So there we have it. I had no idea that in the space of just a few short years we could be comparing SW11 to South Kensington, Chelsea or Notting Hill. That’s something for me to contemplate at my summer holiday home in the French Riviera.

Home owners are into construction A four-bedroom, three-bathroom Edwardian property with a superb interior has been re-designed, extended and renovated with high specs and flair by the present owners, who run a successful construction company.

The house now offers contemporary space with clean lines, plenty of natural light, and soft colours. The designer kitchen has polished concrete worktops and the bathrooms are hotel-style.

In the rear garden, sleek teak decking stretches across an area of natural planting, grasses and silver birch trees bounded by glass balustrading. A decked seating area beneath a pergola

features a long bench seat with storage underneath, and a huge old tree hosts a cantilevered barbecue and cooking area.

The garden is lit by a combination of tiny inset LCD lights and weathered bronze spot downlights.

FENTIMAN ROAD KENNINGTON SW8 Daniel Corbett & Co. have sold over sixty houses in the favoured south easterly part of Fentiman Road since the 1980s. Many of these we have sold a number of times over and, in the case of the two most recent, we have achieved sales for the last five owners running. These early Victorian houses reflect more the style and proportions of Georgian architecture and offer wonderful family accommodation with good gardens.

The location is very convenient for easy access to central London and the general area is undergoing widespread regeneration, along with the proposed extension of the Northern Line and relocation of the American and Dutch embassies to nearby Nine Elms. The planned transformation of this already extremely popular area will add greatly to its desirability.

lettings lowdown It’s a short walk to the Common A six-bedroom semi-detached family home in a quiet street on the Magdalen Estate is a short walk from the transport and shopping around Wandsworth Common and Bellevue Road.

Meticulously extended and refurbished by the current owner, the property offers benefits such as underfloor heating, ample storage, off-street parking and a 49ft garden.

Living space includes an entrance hall, formal reception room, office, utility room, guest cloakroom, and an open plan highspec kitchen with generous family and dining areas. The master bedroom has an en suite bathroom and dressing room.

T

he summer has been memorable for two reasons – the hot weather and the strong rental market, which exploded around April during Easter and continued at a fast pace until the end of July.

As I write this in August, I am looking forward to my summer holidays but also the September market plus the usual rush in August for last-minute families and tenants needing to be in by the beginning of September.

The buy-to-let finance market has been so much more encouraging and I am looking forward to an influx of new property as the BTL deals complete in the next two months.

Companies have been busy this year transferring staff over at all levels.

We have let a two-bedroom flat on the corner of Ridgway Place and Worple Road in the region of £1700 per month to a single lady with Sony, and at the other end of the scale, a large family house in Princes Way – 5500 sq feet and seven bedrooms – to an online marketing company at £10,000 per month.

Our in-house corporate services division, who offer a complimentary home search service to companies, have been inundated with new enquires for across London including Wimbledon.

I predict a busy quarter ahead, but as we approach the autumn and winter rental prices can soften so do listen to your agent when bringing your property to the market, or if your property is sticking.

Gateway to the Downs O

riginally two cottages in Oreham Manor, Oreham House is a brick-built and tile-hung property retaining much of its original period charm.

A brick herringbone pathway leads to a solid wood front door and the central part of the house featuring mullioned windows, exposed beams and flagstone floors.

Over the years this four-bedroom property in West Sussex has been modernised and extended to create a large and versatile family home with contemporary features such as down-lighting and an integrated Bang & Olufsen sound system.

The open plan kitchen, breakfast and family room was part of the original property and today contains a two-oven Aga with electric companion stove and granite surfaces. The extended family area has a beamed and vaulted ceiling and glazed doors on three sides leading to the patio. A zinc bar has wine storage below, and this room contains a woodburner.

A contemporary glass walkway leads from the kitchen to the drawing room, which has a large stone fireplace, garden views and glass doors to the patio.

Adjoining the drawing room is a book-lined study.

A modern guest suite added by the current owners includes a sunroom with a glass roof and heat and rain-sensitive windows.

Outbuildings include a double garage, bike store, greenhouse, and a gym – with sauna – currently used as a soundproof drum room. In the gardens and grounds of more than five acres you’ll find an orchard, tennis court, croquet lawn and meadow.

You reach the property by a private road across Oreham Common. A rear garden gate leads to open farmland with public footpaths leading to South Downs National Park.

Finding homes in Kent and Sussex A

fter enduring a humid summer, you might dream of cool breezes, a large garden for the kids to run around in, and a more relaxed pace of life.

Unearthing country property gems in Kent and Sussex takes experience, but recent success stories show that your dream home is still out there.

The dream home Dispirited after viewing more than 100 Kent houses, a young London couple who were about to give up sought our help. Our local contacts created fresh opportunities, which we whittled down to one. They fell in love with and bought the first house we viewed.

The Kent farmhouse Having enjoyed country childhoods, this South London couple longed for a rambling Kent farmhouse with land, where their children could run wild, but conceded they didn’t have enough time to devote to their search.

Our access to off-market and pre-market houses enabled them to live their rural dream.

Village life in the Sussex downs Returning to their London flat after working abroad, he dreamed of growing veg and keeping bees, while she loved bracing walks. New to country living, they didn’t know where to start. Through familiarisation tours, we honed in on a few favourite villages – they are now embracing village life in the Sussex Downs.

The takeaways?

Have patience, don’t be afraid to seek help, and never give up. Your perfect home in the country is out there.

countryview Special report by Dominick Brown, director at Savills Sevenoaks

A

ccording to Savills, the UK housing market activity has picked up significantly this year with every month bringing a fresh set of improved data. There are now more positive indicators than at any point over the past few years.

Commuter towns, and those within an hour of London by rail, offering a variety of highly rated schooling are showing positive growth to date this year. There has been a rise in interest from London buyers in recent months with an increased demand for well-presented properties that are ready to live in.

We have noticed that buyers are reluctant to purchase a property that needs a great deal of renovation or building work. However, the homes with the potential for an extension at a later date are still generating interest.

The last couple of months have undoubtedly seen a real positive shift in activity in the property market across all price bands. A run of better weather, a more positive economic outlook in the UK and abroad, and a return of confidence are all contributing to improved market conditions.

All of the town centre properties currently being marketed by Savills continue to receive strong interest and attract an increasing number of offers. Buyers are increasingly confident and keen to negotiate, but as demand increases, we have seen properties recently sell at and above the guide price. Where properties are priced accurately and realistically, buyers are keen to view.

country vibe Sophie Wysock-Wright, head of Residential at Savills Haywards Heath, shows South around Lindfield ATTRACTIONS In the heart of Mid Sussex, Lindfield is a popular and lively village on the edge of the commuter hub of Haywards Heath. It is in the High Weald, an area of outstanding natural beauty.

Dating back to 1098, the village’s ancient High Street is lined with the lime trees the village is named after – Lindfield meaning ‘open land with lime trees’. Nikolaus Pevsner described the High Street as the ‘finest village street in Sussex’ and today it has over 40 medieval and post-medieval timber-framed houses, as well as many beautifully proportioned Victorian properties.

South of the High Street is a picturesque natural spring-fed pond with fish, ducks, swans and herons, surrounded by some of the most stunning properties in the village.

Beyond lies the Common, which over the centuries has witnessed many events such as fairs, festivals, bonfire celebrations and sporting activities.

Today it is still central to village celebrations and leisure activities.

SHOPS AND SERVICES Lindfield has an excellent selection of independent shops including award-winning organic butcher Glyn Thomas, Sussex Wine Cellars, Field and Forest delicatessen, Humphrey’s Bakery, a bookshop, various boutiques, barbers, hairdressers, a GP surgery and several pubs, bistros and coffee shops.

Birchen Lane and Roundwood Lane.

There are many superb country houses tucked away in the lanes surrounding Lindfield.

RESTAURANTS AND PUBS The ones that spring to mind are the Bent Arms, Red Lion, Witch Inn, Stand Up Inn, Limes of Lindfield and Paolino Italian restaurant.

LEISURE Cricket has been played on the common since 1747 and Lindfield has a thriving cricket club, football club and tennis club. King Edward Hall is the venue for the local drama society and the weekly country market. There is a Blackthorns Choir, and church groups and other choirs.

SCHOOLS Lindfield has both soughtafter state schools and many excellent private schools within easy reach. They include Blackthorns Primary, Lindfield Primary, Oathall Community College, Tavistock & Summerhill, Great Walstead School, Cumnor House and Ardlingly College. There are also a number of well-regarded pre-schools and nurseries.

TRANSPORT Lindfield is 1.5 miles from Haywards Heath station, which has regular mainline services to Brighton (journey time from 17 minutes), London Bridge and London Victoria (from 42 minutes). The A23 is close and connects to the coast and the national motorway network. Gatwick Airport is 14 miles away.

Contemporary designs on Victorian grandeur V

anbrugh and Graburn are two impressively grand houses newly built in Victorian style on Palace Road, one of the most prestigious addresses in East Molesey, close to Hampton Court and the River Thames.

Part of Kent Town conservation area, the two properties take their names from two legendary East Molesey figures of the past: Sir John Vanbrugh, 17th century soldier, spy, playwright and theatre manager, and William Turbett Graburn, the 19th century Surrey cricketer.

With exteriors designed to complement their historic surroundings, the homes have interiors that offer thoroughly modern living space with versatile layouts and immaculate presentation.

Steve Bowring, a director at developer Capital Holdings, said: “This has been one of the most fascinating, enriching projects I have ever been involved with. We set out to create beautiful houses that were in keeping with the traditional architecture of the area, but also had spacious and bright interiors.”

Trevor Rawlings of Savills Esher, who is handling the sale, added: “These are truly beautiful family homes in a very desirable area. Road and rail communications to central London are excellent and will appeal to those who may be moving out of central London for a better quality of life but still require easy access to the capital.”

The renowned RAC Woodcote Park Country Club is close by, and the area is well known for its equestrian facilities.

TOP STREETS The private estate of Kingswood Warren has some of the most sought-after property in the area.

The former BBC Research Centre, now converted into a residential area, is highly desirable and Savills is currently selling a couple of Octagon homes here.

SCHOOLS The area has an abundance of excellent educational establishments.

These include Kingswood primary school; Aberdour and Kingswood House Preparatory Schools; Whitgift School, renowned for educating a number of sports personalities including Danny Cipriani, Jason Roy, Lawrence Okoye and Elliot Daley; Epsom College; Greenacre School for Girls; St Bede’s; Dunottar School for Girls; Reigate Grammar; and St Johns in Leatherhead.

Special report

C

urrently, the property in and around Reigate can effectively be divided into three separate markets.

At the lower end of the market, purchasers are taking a long-term view and, buoyed by the confidence that interest rates should remain low for the immediate future, are confident in investing in a town that, for growing families and commuters, offers the very best in lifestyle and travel amenities.

At the top end of the market, purchasers are attracted to the area because of its proximity to central London, the airports and the green leafy suburbs where they can buy an extremely impressive looking home.

The £2 million to £2.5 million market is, however, proving to be slightly more challenging.

In the main, this is because many applicants at this level are waiting to see whether or not a mansion tax will be implemented before making the decision to purchase.

Across all price brackets, many of our applicants come from South West London.

These purchasers recognise that the area offers them more house for their money, a selection of superb schools into which they can secure a place for their children, the increased privacy of living on a larger plot, and good communication links back into central London.

We have already been instructed on several exceptional properties that are due to be launched in September and so the autumn market is looking positive, with both demand and supply at a constant level across most price ranges.

the last word Tony Ennis, senior associate at Bairstow Eves Battersea, has the final say How did you join the property industry, and briefly describe your career to date?

It was purely by chance. A job in sales in the 1990s seemed like a good career move, and 17 years on I’m still working for Bairstow Eves on Lavender Hill, having joined as a trainee negotiator and worked through the ranks.

This means I have a fantastic understanding of the business from valuing and marketing right through to selling and progressing the deal to completion. Given the success of the branch over the last few years I guess my next role will be running hopefully an expanded area in South West London.

Describe the biggest challenges you face on a day-to-day basis?

Market share and available stock are the biggest challenges in estate agency at present. There’s a lot of choice out there for potential vendors. We have hundreds of serious active buyers on our books at present so it really is a case of finding the right home for the right buyer.

What advice would you give to anyone considering a career in estate agency?

It’s a job that teaches you a wealth of skills that you can use across the board. It’s hard work and long hours but the best things in life are never easy.

How difficult is the current market for homebuyers, and what advice do you give them?

Get onto the housing ladder as soon as possible. There are some fantastic deals out

there at the moment, and paying a mortgage is almost always going to be preferable to paying rent. Buying your own home is also a great investment vehicle over the long term.

In your view, how does the South London market differ from other areas of London?

South London has a massively diverse property market, from mansion blocks and conversions to period terrace cottages and purpose-built

housing, all within a small geographic area.

Add to that the sheer number of small commercial areas and micro-markets such as Battersea Square or Abbeville Village, and it’s a fantastic place to live.

What are your predictions for the sales market in South London for the next few years?

We are as busy as ever in our office on Lavender Hill and we have achieved some record prices, with some properties even selling over their original asking price, demand has been so high. The area as a whole continues to be massively popular due to good schooling, the vast array of cafés and bars, outdoor spaces on commons and excellent travel links provided by Clapham Junction and the Northern Line tube stations. I can only see prices increasing as mortgages become more readily available.

If you were not an estate agent, what career would you choose and why?

I can’t imagine myself doing anything else, but I’m a keen sportsman and so it would probably be something in the sports sector, such as a sports physio or football coach.
