ask the expert

What are your top tips for first-time buyers?

Matthew Heard, associated director residential for Savills Putney, replies…

For first-time buyers, Putney can offer more for your money than nearby Fulham, while

still providing convenient transport connections to central London via rail, tube and buses.

Testament to this is the fact that 70 per cent of our buyers are upsizing in the area. Putney High Street has a good variety of shops and restaurants, the river offers spectacular views, and there’s plenty of beautiful green open space nearby on Putney Common.

Types of property in the area range from pretty period homes to contemporary new developments, purpose-built blocks and everything in between, so there’s plenty for first time buyers to choose from.

Those looking for the best value for money will typically find a little bit more in East Putney than in West Putney. There is no particular reason for this, with both areas offering their own advantages, such as the convenience of East Putney’s tube station and West Putney’s close proximity to Putney Heath and Common.

There are plenty of good schools in the area, too, including Putney High, St Mary’s, All Saints and Brandlehow, which attract families and couples looking for a long-term move. The local primary schools in particular are among the best in the country.

Putney’s property market also has a bright future, with Savills In Numbers research forecasting 20 per cent growth in average values by 2019. Buyers of properties under £1m in Putney are predominately British at 50 per cent, followed by Western European, South Asian sub continent and Pacific Asia all at 13 per cent.

marketviewWill the New Year bring good news for the property market? The experts talk to Jenny Knight

about their predictions.

The general election coming up in May and Ed Miliband’s threat to whack a mansion tax on houses worth more than £2m have cast a slight

gloom over prospects for the New Year. Yet many agents remain bullish, saying that even if the

soaring price rises are replaced by lower steadier gains, long-term prospects remain good.

According to Knight Frank, Londoners are the most confident that prices will continue to rise, compared with people elsewhere in the UK. Backing up that optimism, 7.9 per cent of households in London are planning to buy a property in 2015.

Marc Wiehe of Winkworth says: “What the property market craves is stability – a good number of available properties for buyers and tenants to choose from and reasonably easy access to mortgages. If people feel good about their prospects, the volume of sales and lets increases accordingly.

“There is an unstable outlook in the short term: uncertainty about what kind of government we will have – pro or anti aspiration? Discussions about mansion taxes, changes to stamp duty and tenancies cause worry. Added to possible interest rate rises, this can and has paralysed the market. It will be better after the election.”

Tom Butler of Sheraton Law says: “We expect the market to remain stable in 2015 with more property on the market than in the past few years. If priced competitively, there are many serious buyers looking to make the next move on the ladder. We predict interest rates to start rising in 2015 but expect this to be gradual and not affecting the market significantly.”

Many agents are content to see an end to the meteoric growth in prices. Robert French of Knight Frank adds: “There has been a definite price adjustment and this is what the market needed as such huge gains are not sustainable. The market is strong where pricing is appropriate and this will continue in 2015. We predict modest growth, finishing somewhere in the region of 3 per cent by the end of the year.

“Family homes on good plots are always desirable and there is evidence the appetite for large houses is returning. The market for young professionals and pied-a-terre buyers mean that best-in-class apartments are also in constant demand in Clapham.”

His prediction of a 3 per cent price rise is backed by Peter Rollings of Marsh and Parsons, who thinks sales will pick up after the election.

Croatian tennis player Marin Cilic, winner of last year’s US Open championship, has used this apartment as his home in the

summer for Wimbledon fortnight.Available to rent for £1295 per week, the

three-bed contemporary property on Putney High Street is a former contender for the title of Britain’s Best Home in a Channel 5 TV series.

On three floors, the home includes surround sound, air-conditioning and impressive interior and exterior lighting. Folding doors from the open plan dining room lead to a magnificent decked roof terrace with plenty of space for outside entertaining. Douglas & Gordon 020 3318 7952.

the wordSpecial report by Caroline Bell, Savills Putney residential director

2014 was a positive year for Putney, with average values rising by 12 per cent. We saw the greatest growth at the start of the

year, slowing towards the tail end as buyers and vendors began to take stock ahead of the general election.

Keeping the general election in mind, Savills Research forecasts that values will remain the same in 2015, assuming no mansion tax is introduced but allowing for revision of the council tax system. By 2019 we forecast growth of 20 per cent, with the market picking up pace after the election.

If mansion tax is introduced, Savills Research predicts a 5 per cent decrease in prices across all prime London in 2015. However, they predict that this will be absorbed by 2017 when a bounce back in values will begin, reaching a 16 per cent increase by 2019.

Both scenarios mark a return to normality for Putney, after exceptionally fast growth over

the past five years of up to 73 per cent in some instances. The impact of the general election will not curb house price growth in the long term, with the fundamentals of supply and demand driving the market forward in Putney.

The principal use of property in Putney continues to be as a main residence at 86 per cent, with 70 per cent of buyers upsizing in the area. Putney can offer more for your money than nearby Fulham, while still providing convenient transport connections to central London via rail, tube and buses.

There are plenty of good schools in the area too including Putney High, St Mary’s, All Saints and Brandlehow, which attract families and couples looking for a long-term move. The local primary schools, in particular, are among the best in the country.

UK buyers are the most predominant across all price brackets, followed by western Europeans. For those looking for the best value for money,

you will typically find a little bit more in East Putney than in West Putney.

In addition to traditional second hand stock, Savills is pleased to be involved in the marketing of two prestigious new build schemes: Oakhill Park will provide 48 spacious one, two and three-bed apartments, and Westmead is a smaller scheme of nine beautifully appointed houses.

A little further towards Wandsworth, Savills is handling the huge Ram Brewery development site with 661 iconic homes being created, which will transform the area.

Price growth slows in prime outer LondonPrices are dipping in prime outer London as political uncertainty cools demand. That’s the message from the latest research by Knight Frank.

“Price growth is slowing in prime outer London as the general election approaches, an effect that is more marked in some areas,” says Tom Bill, head of London Residential Research for Knight Frank. “Prices in prime outer London fell in October, ending a period of 40 consecutive months of growth,” he added.

In the 12 months to October 2014, prices grew by 12.1 per cent in Battersea, 15.4 per cent in Wandsworth and Clapham, and 7 per cent in Wimbledon. Price growth in Fulham for the same period was 5.3 per cent.

Battersea Phase ThreeWandsworth Council has approved detailed plans for the south-west corner of Battersea Power Station development site.

Phase three of the scheme’s masterplan will create a new pedestrian high street from Battersea Park Road to the power station building. This would be the main gateway to site from the south and will include entrances to the new Northern Line tube station below.

The scheme includes a new pedestrian subway beneath Battersea Park Road, linking Stewards Road with the new power station development and providing another route into tube station. A total of 1305 homes would be built in this phase, including 103 for Wandsworth residents on low and middle incomes to rent at reduced rates.

Battersea Power Station is one of around 30 development sites in Nine Elms. Across the entire regeneration area around 18,000 homes are being built alongside enough business space to support 25,000 jobs.

To the west of the new high street will be a wave-shaped building designed by Foster + Partners. The 17-storey building will include six large gaps to allow light to pass through and provide views of the power station from the train line on the other side.

Best of Bricks winOctagon’s Long Walk Villas in Windsor won this year’s Best Development of the Year (2 to 10 units) in The Bricks awards by LABC (Local Authority Building Control).

The handsome terrace of nine homes sits behind a pair of secure ornamental gates and has been traditionally built in mellow brick with lavish stone dressings. Each house has an integral garage, visitor parking and private rear garden. Just one house remains on the market priced at £2.75m. (Visit www.octagon.co.uk.)

Surveyor Stewart Eden (pictured, right) and project manager Ron Taplin, responsible for the development ‘s build quality and site management, accepted the award at the awards ceremony in the West End.

Skylark launchCharlie Oppenheim and his wife Fran have launched Skylark Café on Wandsworth Common, serving menu dishes developed with local chefs such as MasterChef 2011 finalist Tom Whitaker.

Tea, coffee, cakes and biscuits are from local suppliers. The café is fully licensed and stocks craft beers from local breweries such as Belleville of Wandsworth and By the Horns of Earlsfield. Charlie and Fran took over the café – previously known as Common Ground – in April.

David Law, sales manager of Foxtons Battersea

Focusing on the south London market, the m u c h - a n t i c i p a t e d developments including

Battersea Power Station and the new US Embassy have already begun to change the urban landscape, and are set to do even more so in 2015.

These two developments have resulted in a building frenzy in Nine Elms, bringing with it a multitude of developments including around 16,000 new flats. The predicted 30,000 workers poised to arrive in the area will amplify demand in the rental market.

Ongoing foreign investment in central London will ensure that the already significant amount of people moving south of the river will continue to rise.

Hannah Watkins, associate at Knight Frank Clapham

After an unusually quiet autumn, the final quarter of 2014 saw increased activity across London,

with strong results achieved where prices were deemed to be sensible and of value.

Going into 2015, we believe the market will to continue along a similar path. We do not foresee prices rising noticeably in the coming months. However, having seen buyer demand increase in the latter part of 2014, we believe the market will be strong where vendors are realistic.

WORD ONTHE STREET

What do you predict will happen next in the property market?

Scene on screenFoxtons has launched a suite of digital innovations to enhance customer experience. Four new features are designed to boost marketing exposure for sellers’ and landlords’ homes and improve the browsing experience for buyers and tenants.

The new iOS app uses bespoke technology, created in conjunction with UI Centric, to personalise property searches to an individual’s needs. One of the key features is Property Scene (pictured), a reality search that shows nearby homes on the market.

Area Guides help house-hunters to identify exactly the right area for themselves and their families, Design Inspiration displays interiors of impressive properties in London and Surrey using high-definition photography, and My Foxtons dashboard has a new layout with extra functions.

Clean living in hypoallergenic WimbledonA hypoallergenic home to let in Clifton Road, Wimbledon, has an integrated ventilation system that provides a clean living environment free from dust and pollen.

“Breathing airborne pollutants often triggers allergy, asthma and hay fever symptoms. In Clifton Road, the principal causes of these ailments are eliminated by the ventilation system, allowing for improved sleep and sense of wellbeing,” says letting agent Savills.

“The system collects dirt and is self-cleaning, recycling heat energy and reducing energy bills to create a cleaner, more efficient home. These systems are a good investment for new-build properties but are extremely expensive to implement in an existing property.”

Week guide rental is £2296 per week via Savills Wimbledon on 020 8971 8126.

Master class in urban renovation The quirky and ultra-modern interior of the Old School House ticks all the boxes, reports Jenny Knight

When Harry Offer bought his apartment in a handsome Victorian building in Montague Road, Richmond, it was an ideal bachelor pad,

but as the years passed changes became desirable.He said: “Getting married and the arrival of three little

ones focused my priorities. The house needed a little TLC.”

With input from architects and guidance from his artist wife Clare, who insisted that the living quarters should be flooded with light, extraordinary ideas were floated. While it is commonplace to knock down an interior wall or to extend upwards or outwards, the Offers scorned such timidity.

The whole apartment was gutted, down to the external walls and roof. Then the rear wall was removed to allow them to build a dazzling light-filled extension and a glass-sided studio, with views across the sizeable garden. It helped that among his careers Harry has been a surveyor, so his specialist knowledge gave him extra confidence to tackle such a dramatic project.

Four bedrooms were created downstairs along with two bathrooms and a laundry room. A mezzanine floor was added, while the raised ground floor reception area is now filled with natural light. The result gives a total of 2,800 square feet of space.

He said: “The biggest challenges in engineering terms were bridging tree roots in the garden and taking the cross beams out of the roof trusses without prejudicing the structure. Getting immaculate finishes in an old building, where no walls are absolutely plumb straight, took quality craftsmen and lots of thought.”

Using huge amounts of glass presented problems – including persuading council planners to give consent. “Glass reduces the ability to keep the place warm, so we had to install a brutally efficient Swedish heating system. The layout is curious because it is counter intuitive to sleep downstairs,” adds Harry.

“The site slopes, so the ground floor has earth on one side, which gives protection from the cold and aircraft noise and makes it cosy. Having a windowless side to

Making drastic changes to a building where other people are living requires tact and consideration because inevitably they will be inconvenienced. The Offers helped to keep their neighbours sweet by improving the shared hallway.

For a time the family enjoyed their swish new home before moving out of London. They found that proximity to Shepperton Studios made the apartment a popular rental property for actors. Celebrities included Michelle Williams, 33, star of the 2011 film My Week with Marilyn, who rented the property for three months while filming the biopic in 2010.

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.

Price wargameLenders cut their rates to secure business, reports Duncan Farmer

This time a year ago, most analysts were

expecting that by now interest rates

would have started to rise. Not only has that not happened, but it still looks unlikely in the foreseeable future and, better still for borrowers, the rates lenders are charging continue to fall.

HSBC has just launched its lowest-ever, five-year fixed-rate mortgage at 2.48 per cent, saving borrowers – both new buyers and people remortgaging – hundreds of pounds a month. Barclays and Santander have also brought out great deals as building societies and banks do all they can to attract new business.

Mortgage rates are at a historic low with lenders dropping fixed-rate mortgages under one per cent. In October, HSBC brought out the first mortgage below one per cent since 1996 – at 0.99 per cent.

David Hollingworth of mortgage brokers London & Country said: “While I am always reluctant to use the term ‘price war’, I really think that’s what is happening.”

The loan from HSBC, which was launched at the beginning of December, is available for borrowers with a 40 per cent deposit and has a £999 arrangement fee.

Santander also launched its lowest two-year fixed-rate mortgage – at 1.84

per cent - but it was offered only to people who want to remortgage. Borrowers would need to have 40 per cent equity in their home, and the loan comes with a £995 fee. Santander said the deal would be available for ‘a limited time only’, but with the price war in the lending market appearing to become more fierce, borrowers who lost out on this deal need not wait long for another one to appear.

Barclays has introduced a five-year fixed-rate remortgage at 2.79 per cent for borrowers with equity of 30 per cent, with a £999 application fee.

Ray Boulger of John Charcol, the mortgage broker, said: “This is great news for borrowers. Lenders have to stay competitive to get business and we have seen a steady stream of lenders cutting their fixed rates. Other lenders are sure to follow in the next few weeks.”

Part of the reason behind the flurry of new loans is that lenders are trying to hit targets as the year ends – the new rules brought in last April created a hiccup in the mortgage market that disrupted the flow of business.

They are also keen to retain customers on their standard variable rate who may – and certainly should – switch to a fixed-rate if and when the Bank of England puts up the base rate.

£January is often

a time when individuals

reflect on the excesses of the festive period, and your finances should not be treated any differently. Mortgage repayments are most households’ biggest outgoing, so reviewing your mortgage could yield dividends.

The tail of 2014 saw the mortgage market enter a competitive period with the biggest winners being those with significant equity in their home – perhaps 30 or 40 per cent. Now increased competition and improved pricing means those with higher loan-to-values also benefit.

If you are on SVR or coming to the end of your current offer, it is worth reviewing your mortgage. Always work out the total cost of the deal – rate plus fees – when comparing products, rather than going purely by rate. It will differ according to the size of your loan, so checking the total cost ensures you don’t pay over the odds in the long run.

Shop around or use a mortgage broker to see if you are eligible for a better deal that could save you money.

High moraleLenders approved the lowest number of mortgages since June 2013 last October but consumer lending boomed, official, as shoppers’ morale stayed high despite a loss of momentum in the housing market.

The Bank of England said that consumer lending rose at its fastest annual rate since the run-up to the financial crisis, with credit expanding by 6.4 per cent on the year, a pace last exceeded in July 2006.

This coincides with official national accounts data, which showed household spending rising at its fastest pace in four years in the three months to September, as well as private-sector surveys showing strong appetite for big purchases, helped by so-called Black Friday, the kick-off to the Christmas shopping period.

Thirties risksPeople in their thirties will find it harder to secure a mortgage because new rules designed to curb risky lending are preventing people from borrowing beyond the standard retirement age.

Experts said that the rules brought in by the Mortgage Market Review (MMR) on lending to older borrowers lacked clarity, meaning many people in their forties or even late thirties could face difficulty getting a mortgage.

The Intermediary Mortgage Lenders Association (IMLA), said that a substantial number of borrowers would be affected because many lenders now required them to prove their income from the state pension age, regardless of whether they intend to stay in work for longer.

“With lengthening mortgage terms and the general difficulty people are having getting mortgages, the issue of lending into retirement has reached further down the spectrum than people might have imagined,” said Peter Williams, executive director of the IMLA.

New homes updateSpecial report by David Smith, group head of marketing for luxury homes developer Octagon

I suppose you could say it has been a bit of a stop-start past year as far as the house building

industry is concerned. We have all experienced flurries of buying activity, followed by eerily quiet

patches. Then out of nowhere, buyers seem to be appearing on the scene again.

World events, local politics, and bank rates appear not to have eliminated all eligible buyers at our end of the market. We have seen fewer Russians, and that is understandable under the current circumstances, but other international investors looking for a British base are familiar faces at our ‘show off’ properties on the market in St Georges Hill and Wentworth. It seems people with the right funds who want an Octagon home, buy one.

We have also dipped our toe in the water in some new territories like Windsor with our super-size townhouses. Virtually in the town centre, but sitting rather superiorly adjacent to Windsor Great Park and the Castle, Long Walk Villas have attracted mostly local residents yearning for a central location with parking, a rare commodity in this Berkshire town. All now sold bar one, this is a concept we are interested in repeating in other desirable commuter towns.

Looking ahead, we, like every other business, will be monitoring the election effect as we get into early spring. We suspect, long term, it will have little effect on the general property market, and we will continue to be producing our high quality generously sized family homes in prime locations.

In fact, aware some families are looking for more home and land for their money, especially if they are relocating from central London, we too are going rural, and have started construction on a seven-bedroom country house in Picketts Hill, Hampshire. Set in 5.5 acres, this is a classic Octagon, the first to be built in this area, and will be released in the summer for a guide price of £4.75m.

Then we are also making a welcome return to one of Octagon’s heartlands, Wimbledon Village, where a large detached six-bedroom house with a guide price of £6.95m is already under way, scheduled to be ready in the autumn, in the tranquil location of Deepdale, a no through road a few minutes’ walk from the High Street.

We ended last year on a high note, having collected six top building and design awards for our various projects. This is a great way for the entire Octagon team to be congratulated for pushing the boundaries to achieve the ultimate in excellence. So here’s to an equally rewarding 2015.

ask the local

What does it have going for it?

A lively and fast improving neighbourhood with a really good mix of property sizes and styles to suit all budgets. Still really affordable compared to neighbouring Balham, Clapham and Brixton.

Well connected?

London Victoria in 17 minutes from Streatham Hill station, City Thameslink service from Streatham, as well as London Bridge and Victoria from Streatham Common. Europe’s busiest bus route with access to Brixton and Croydon 24 hours a day.

And the schools?

Great state schools from primary through to sixth form, several of which have outstanding/excellent Ofsted status. Dulwich, Clapham and Croydon private schools are within easy reach often with dedicated bus services.

Hangout at...

The brand new ice rink and leisure centre, the newly revamped Henry Tate library and community centre, or maybe you fancy a spot of jazz at Hideaway – South London’s version of Ronnie Scott’s?

Why Streatham? South asks Marc Wiehe, director of Winkworth Streatham.

Where to buy

A fabulous big house in Telford Park (complete with private tennis clubs) or the perennially popular ABC roads in Streatham Hill. Tighter budget? Then look at the improving Streatham Vale neighbourhood.

On a popular residential street close to Wimbledon Park, this stylish and

contemporary four-storey new-build house has a distinct design both inside and out Sarah Doughty, Savills Wimbledon

Ace new spaceNext to the All England Lawn Tennis Club, home of

the globally famous Wimbledon Championships, Wimbledon Park is one of the largest green open

spaces in the Borough of Merton.Transformed in the 18th century by legendary England

landscape architect Capability Brown, the picturesque park contains one of South London’s biggest lakes.

Just 600 metres from this historic park and its many amenities, and around 800 metres from Wimbledon Park tube station, a distinctive five-bedroom new-build house is on the market in a popular residential street that forms part of Kenilworth Avenue conservation area.

The 4300 sq ft home on Kenilworth Avenue itself stands out as a striking contemporary showcase alongside traditional large Victorian redbrick semis with stone detailing, which were built between 1895 and 1898.

Enter the house at raised ground floor level and immediately admire the high standard of design. Glass is used impressively to provide a sleek and light interior. Dark wood floors flowing through most of the house contrast with light colours of the open plan kitchen, reception and dining room. Flooded with natural light, this double aspect room makes a fabulous entertaining space.

On the lower ground floor, the family room is divided into zones for play and TV watching and has double doors to a courtyard. A second entrance from the front

driveway leads to an occasional guest suite or nanny flat.

The second floor contains the luxurious master bedroom suite with floor-to-ceiling windows and a front balcony, both serving superb views of the London skyline. The house includes a 50ft landscaped garden, CCTV security, garage and off-street parking.

Oscar winnerOverlooking Richmond Green, Old Friars is the

much-loved former home of the late Oscar-winning film director Richard Attenborough, who

owned the property with his actress wife Sheila Sim for more than 60 years.

Lord Attenborough, who died last August five days before his 91st birthday, owned Grade II* listed Old Friars with Lady Attenborough from 1949 until 2012, when they sold it due to their failing health. Best known for directing the 1982 epic Gandhi, he was also a life president of Chelsea Football Club.

He built a two-storey cinema featuring a projection room and editing suite at the bottom of his garden, where he showcased his films to family, friends and

visiting celebrities. A later addition to the house was Beaver Lodge, Lord Attenborough’s office, where he worked supported by a dedicated team of employees.

The main house has eight en suite bedrooms and a large ground floor drawing room. An extensive cellar with multiple rooms and storage space would be ideal for the serious wine collector. Or you could install a basement swimming pool.

Dating back to 1687, historic Old Friars has been unoccupied for several years and would now make an excellent renovation project.

White house duoWhite Cottage cuts a dash along Grove Lane, Camberwell, with its pretty Victorian facade. In the 1800s, it was extended to the front by a metre, but its heart is around 250 years old.

Grade II listed White Cottage is almost certainly the coach house to White Lodge, the larger property next door, and the names recall the past connection between these two fine Georgian homes.

In a rare synchronisation, the neighbouring properties are both now for sale: White Cottage has two bedrooms and White Lodge five.

Gill house on Darwell Hill offers 12 acres or moreDesigned in 1926 for Harold Heal by architect

and graphic artist Leslie MacDonald ‘Max’ Gill, this superb arts and crafts style property in East

Sussex appeared in Country Life magazine’s March edition two years later.

Darwell Hill in the village of Netherfield, near Battle, is a thatched six-bedroom house that stands in private and secluded gardens and grounds of around 12 acres. Another nine acres of field and woodland are also available by separate negotiation.

Inside are many original features. A vaulted reception hall, with a wide staircase to the upper galleried landing, leads to the main reception rooms. All the receptions enjoy a south-facing aspect with views across the gardens and beyond.

The drawing and dining rooms both feature attractive open fireplaces, and off the drawing room is an irregular shaped study and a sitting and music room. A large breakfast room also has an ornamental fireplace, with built-in period range.

Next to the breakfast room, the kitchen is equipped with fitted wall and floor cupboards together with a walk-in pantry and larder with ample shelving. Appliances include an electric oven, Rangemaster hob and integral fridge. The utility room, linked to the kitchen via a boot room, is fitted with additional store cupboards and offers space for various white appliances.

Carefully planned grounds incorporate a walled garden, old rose garden, sunken garden partially hedged with mature yew, and an azalea walk. Several large ponds lead to a series of waterfalls that flow down through ornamental ponds to a dewpond. The property includes an integral garage and a series of outbuildings.

Country viewSpecial report by Robert Jacobs, director of residential sales at Savills Tunbridge Wells

Tunbridge Wells in the heart of the South East

has superb open spaces and London is just 42 miles away. The property market in the area is heavily influenced by activity in the capital, with families seeking to move here for a better quality of life.

This has a direct knock-on effect on property prices, with buyers dictating a strong demand in the town in the £400,000 to £1.5m price range. Labour Party proposals for introducing a mansion tax seem to be shifting from £2m to £3m, with council tax reform in this price range a preference with other political parties, which should raise confidence levels in this market.

Pivotal buyers have never had a problem in raising finance when required and we are expecting to see an increase in demand for the Tunbridge Wells area in the spring.

The future is exciting with the recent publication of Tunbridge Wells Borough Council’s five-year plan. The town is expected to undergo a

rejuvenation programme with a brief that encourages economic growth and investment while ensuring the appropriate infrastructure is in place to support growth and enhance quality of life.

In five years’ time, the thriving town of Royal Tunbridge Wells will have attracted growth and investment to secure its future. It will have a vibrant retail trade and a rich cultural heritage based on music, the arts, leisure and water to continue its spa tradition. It will be a place where people want to live and work, and where they have easy access to work, education and local facilities.

I have worked in the town for 27 years and it offers everything you could wish for: character properties, theatres, restaurants, superb leisure opportunities and an excellent choice of schools. It will continue to attract new buyers from London as well as expats and international buyers seeking a convenient and fulfilling base.

Savills Tunbridge Wells 01892 507000

school reportRobert Jacobs examines the options in Royal Tunbridge Wells

Lying on the northern edge of the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the historic spa town of Royal Tunbridge Wells is a popular

choice for parents looking for an exceptionally wide selection of highly-regarded schools, both state and private, including Kent grammar schools that are a key driver for nearly all family moves out of London.

‘Grammar school’ commonly refers to one of the 164 state-funded secondary schools in England where pupils are admitted on the basis of ability. Kent is the largest remaining grammar school area in the country, with 35 wholly selective grammar schools and four partially selective schools. Tunbridge Wells is home to three: the Boys’ Grammar School, Girls’ Grammar School and the Skinners’ School for Boys, all lying within the St John’s area on the northern side of the town.

The quality package of family life the area offers is further enhanced by the excellent road network, fast and frequent rail links enabling good commuting to London and northern Europe, and many sporting, cultural and leisure opportunities.

Variety of homes is nearly as wide as the choice of schools, from the historic Regency elegance of the Tunbridge Wells parks, Victorian and contemporary townhouses, to beamy 17th century cottages and period farmhouses in the charming surrounding villages.

Access to good schools is a significant factor in pricing within the town, as well as the surrounds, and buyers often commit to a purchase as soon as decisions about schools and school places fall into place.

Grammar school entry is typically a very competitive process and some catchment areas may vary from year to year. The 11-Plus exam is used as a selection tool and a new approach was introduced last September designed to create a more level playing field. More details from Kent County Council.

Other popular schools in the town and vicinity include: • State primaries: Claremont Primary School in

Claremont Road, St James’s Church of England Primary and Bidborough Church of England Primary School.

• State secondaries: Bennett Memorial Diocesan School in Culverden Down, St Gregory’s Catholic School in Reynolds Lane and Tunbridge Wells High School in Blackhurst Lane.

• Prep schools: Rose Hill, Holmewood House (Langton Green), The Mead and Beechwood Sacred Heart.

• Independent senior: Beechwood Sacred Heart, Tunbridge Wells, Kent College in Pembury, Tonbridge, Sevenoaks and Sackville in Hildenborough.

Equestrian farmhouseFeatured in 25 Beautiful Homes magazine in 2013,

Canefield Farmhouse was originally built around 250 years ago. New plumbing, heating, electrics and

communications have all been added in the last seven years.

The property at Lockerley in Hampshire is set in 36 acres off a quiet lane surrounded by the beautiful unspoilt countryside of the Test Valley. With paddocks and stabling, it would make the perfect country home for equestrian enthusiasts.

Recent refurbishment combines period character with contemporary design and high-tech systems such as Cat 6 network cabling, video security and wireless music. A separate two-bedroom cottage has a home office, gym, sauna and library, and the property also includes a swimming pool and newly laid, all-weather tennis court.

The entrance hall at the main six-bedroom farmhouse flows through to a series of ground floor receptions: sitting room, music room, drawing room and dining room. Bi-fold doors separate the music room (with log burner) and the drawing room, and the dining room is set in a light-filled atrium.

The bespoke farmhouse-style kitchen and breakfast room includes an Aga range cooker. On the first floor, the double-aspect master bedroom has an en suite bathroom, dressing room and superb views across the garden, paddocks and surrounding countryside.

A conservatory on the side of the kitchen leads to a decked terrace overlooking the lawns and recently planted wild flower garden. There are five paddocks and a one-mile long grass lane – perfect for country walks across your own land.

Idyllic Cobham homeDiscreetly located on the sought after Fairmile Estate, this property enjoys peace

and quiet all year round. This five-bedroom Gable Cottage sits in a plot of about half an acre with a beautiful oak tree in the middle, and is thought to date back

to the 1950s. Accessed from the dining room and conservatory, a paved sun terrace borders the

property and is the prime location to host summer barbecues and entertain guests.While it has a traditional exterior, inside it now has a number of quite contemporary

features. The current owners have added a new Shaker style kitchen with black granite work surfaces. Most of the bathrooms have also been upgraded and now have a travertine finish.Many of the rooms in the house have been decorated in an off-white shade, which complements the beautiful wooden floors.

Cobham life is ideal for the family living. Not only is it easy to commute into central London from Stoke D’ Abernon train station but there is access to good schools, shops and beauty spots. The high street is a short walk away where there is a good range of shops, coffee shops and restaurants and this area is great for schools. Heathrow and Gatwick airports are easily reached via the M25 and it only takes five minutes to walk from the cottage to the woods at Esher Common. Which is a pleasant place to walk after work and at the weekend.

It is a nature reserve, with several ponds and lakes, the largest of which is Black Pond. This was once used as a water supply for the nearby Claremont Landscape Garden, now owned and managed by the National Trust. Also part of the wider Esher Commons area, are Fairmile Common, West End Common and Oxshott Heath.

lettings lowdownSpecial report by David Murphy, sales manager of Foxtons Putney

The second half of 2014 picked up

significantly for lettings compared to the first half.

While demand and transactions on the sales side have steadied in recent months, there has been an increased focus upon lettings as a more reliable long-term option.

While the heat is off, investors are taking advantage of the increased choice in the sales market. Added to this, the current low interest rates have made the buy-to-let market extremely exciting.

Although stock levels have increased, from a tenant’s perspective, choice is still constrained. The proportion of renewed tenancies is always traditionally high at this time of year with few tenants wanting to move house during the colder months. However, even fewer tenancies have been coming to an end during the recent period, with a high number of tenants and landlords sitting tight until after the election before making any big decisions.

The forecast for the New Year for lettings is incredibly positive. January is always one of our busiest months but it

appears that new registrations for 2015 searches have begun even earlier this year, particularly on the corporate side.

As corporate tenants have a strong preference towards professionally managed properties, and pay competitive rates, these tenancies can offer a landlord the ultimate combination of stress-free piece of mind and high returns. For landlords thinking of renting out their property next year, it would be strongly advisable to come to market before Christmas to benefit from full exposure.

Likewise, the advice to tenants would be to start early. Competition during the early months of the year is always intense and the greatest choice of property is usually found during the final quarter. Beyond January, the expectation for next year is that prices will rise moderately.

In South London, there have been a number of new developments, including Langham Square in Putney and the Filaments in Wandsworth, which are both bringing exciting and contemporary new homes to the market. Despite this, demand continues to outstrip supply and this is especially so on the rental side.

KnightFrank.co.uk

Tell us how you joined the property industry and briefly describe your career history to date.I did an MSc in Real Estate Management, which led to a career in commercial property. After qualifying as a surveyor, I moved into the residential side of the market because I find it more interesting. When I see I good house I get excited, and even more so when I know someone wants to buy it.

What do you enjoy most about working in this market, and what have been your highlights so far?It’s the people: I enjoy getting to know clients and advising them on the best strategy to sell their property. It is often an emotional process and sometimes stressful. If I can make it easier for my client, while achieving the best price, it is very rewarding.

What advice would you give anyone considering a career in estate agency?Work hard when the market is busy. Work even harder when it’s quiet – it pays off.

How difficult is the current market for homebuyers, and what advice do you give them?Research the market: a huge amount of information is available to buyers these days. However, it is important that it is sourced from credible publications and websites. At the moment there is a decent amount of stock

available, there are some great mortgages deals, and the market has cooled – which means it is arguably a very good time to buy.

What are your predictions for the sales market in South London for the next few years?The market in South West London has seen unprecedented growth over the last couple of years. It has certainly cooled off in recent months, but correctly priced property is still selling – and selling well. South West London has lots of open space, good schools and great houses, which will always attract buyers. I think the market will continue to rise but at a slower rate.

If you were Prime Minister for the day, what would you change or what new measures would you introduce?I would want to improve the nation’s health and diet education, starting in schools. Health problems associated with being overweight or obese cost the NHS more than £5 billion every year.

Where, in your view, is the best place to live south of the river and why?I love Abbeville Village. It has a lovely family feel, with a great selection of shops and restaurants. It is a stone’s throw from Clapham Common and accessible to public transport.

If you were not an estate agent, what career would you choose and why?Having done a number of adventure races for charity over the years, including winning a 350-mile race to the North Pole and cycling across Africa, I would like to take this to the next level and do it full time. These sorts of events require dedication, sacrifice and hard work to get winning results. These are all traits that transfer to success in agency.
