ASKTHEEXPERT

Do you think a pro vote for Brexit in June’s referendum could see a

drop in UK house prices?

Stephanie Mant Head of Sales Cluttons Clapham and Battersea replies…

A The Clapham and Battersea area has been a highly desirable

neighbourhood for years and will continue to be so given its array of good

schools, spacious homes, transportation links, location within Zone 2, leisure offering and sense of community.

A Brexit won’t have a detrimental effect on the area’s house prices, especially as it is predominately a domestic market, that is, it will not be affected by fl uctuations from international investors. For this reason, supply will continue to remain tight and values are likely to hold regardless of the 23 June referendum outcome.

James Hyman, Cluttons residential agency head, added, “London is unique because it is regarded as a global city and the residential market is considered a safe haven for investment. Whether you’re a Yorkshireman or a European, you still want a residence in the capital, given the proven long-term returns. If the UK leaves the European Union, it may make London more appealing but this is hard to determine at this stage.

“Currently, neighbourhoods with a high concentration of European nationals include Chelsea, Battersea and Holland Park in the West and Kentish Town and Canary Wharf to the East. However, these Europeans, especially those with East London postcodes, often work in the fi nancial sector and are remunerated in sterling. They also want their children to be UK-educated so are very much integrated into Britain.”

Buyers of high-end London homes, who have been stumping up extra stamp duty since December 2014, had the last laugh when they heard that

the tax rise has led to a dramatic fall in tax receipts, says Jenny Knight.

The news that since rates went up there has been a £620 million fall in stamp duty income, will go some way to making those who had to dig deep into their pockets feel better.

It was American president John Kennedy who explained the ‘paradoxical truth’ that lower tax rates lead to a bigger take for governments. Even Labour’s Denis Healey, who wanted to tax the rich until the pips squeaked, later admitted that high taxes hurt the Treasury.

But it seems our current Chancellor, George Osborne hasn’t got the message. Wendy Peterman, of Petermans, says: “If they hadn’t put up stamp duty there would be a lot more movement in the property market. There is a desperate shortage of property for sale in London because people don’t want to move and pay so much tax. If the Government hadn’t hiked the level they would have generated a lot more tax.

“When people move they buy new carpets, curtains, kitchens, furniture and employ painters and decorators, encouraging the economy as a whole.”

Nor does she think that the planned 3 per cent extra tax on second-home buyers will help either fi rst-time buyers or people renting.

“The number of properties available will still be the same. I feel really sorry for fi rst-time buyers, they will still need to earn a fortune to afford the deposit and they still won’t fi nd it easy to get a mortgage. At the moment buy-to-let landlords – especially cash buyers – either need a lot of money invested to upgrade them, or have a short leases. In both cases these are not the types of property that ordinary buyers could get a mortgage for, so some of them will just stick on the market, adding to the housing shortage.

“My fear is that new taxes will drive ordinary people out of buy-to-let, so big business will end up as monopoly landlords and rents might actually go up because of lack of competition.”

“I feel really strongly that the 3 per cent should be rescinded because buy-to-let has already been hit by the change in the tax rules, stopping deducting mortgage interest and wear and tear.”

Having been lucky enough to be Sales Manager of KFH’s Kennington branch since 2001, I have witnessed monumental changes in the area, from the types of property available to the buyers attracted to them. We are now experiencing

another period of transition, with a number of factors contributing to the evolving market.

Many of our buyers are moving in from north of the river, tempted by the central location, as well as the diverse mixture of property available, great transport links and the cycle highway. This has impacted market values in Kennington, with record-breaking prices being seen throughout the area. As these buyers have created demand for family homes, the amount of stock available on the market has decreased. Those wishing to stay in Kennington are now opting to choose larger period conversion apartments for their families instead of more traditional properties.

This demand from North London and the rush for family homes has also resulted in buyers looking further out than the well-established Kennington, with places such as Walworth experiencing an increase in popularity.

We are also seeing a split between buyers. Those who already own one property have been keen to complete before April, whereas buyers without second properties are waiting for the surcharge before starting their search in earnest. My advice to those waiting, however, would to be to start looking now. Due to the amount of time it takes for a transaction to go through, the number of investors rushing to complete before April will soon start to slow, creating a perfect opportunity to get started before there is a spike in demand from other owner occupiers.

Being sandwiched between Nine Elms and Elephant & Castle has also had a huge effect on the market, with the current regeneration taking place bolstering Kennington. As the American Embassy gets ready to relocate to Nine Elms, and with another underground station promised, I anticipate further growth that will positively affect our area.

Many of our buyers are lured by the close proximity to the river and the neighbourhoods around it, including Vauxhall, Stockwell and Oval. With the general consensus being that a rise in interest rates is not imminent, more confidence has been brought to the market. As buyers flock here, demand outweighs supply and regeneration progresses, I’m confident that we’ll continue to see a thriving market in Kennington.

THE WORDNewcomers attracted to a central location and the boost of nearby re-generation makes for a thriving market, says Justin Bhoday of KFH Kennington

PROPERTY OSCARS

London’s top property projects will go head-to-head at the 2016 RICS London Awards in May, hosted by TV presenter Julia Bradbury.

Some 56 of London’s most innovative property projects, or those that benefi t the community, have been shortlisted for the

prestigious industry accolades, nicknamed London’s Property Oscars.

Contenders include multi-million pound developers and small-scale schemes. Among those up for a prize is The Wimbledon Arts

Studio for UAL, shortlisted in the Design through Innovation category as well as the Community Benefi t category for its stylish and practical

approach to providing space for creativity to fl ourish in the capital. The Sacred Heart Roman Catholic School in Camberwell and

Landsdowne Gardens residential scheme in Lambeth are also contenders. One scheme will win the Project of the Year crown but all category

winners will go on to compete against other regional winners at the national RICS Awards Grand Final in October 2017, for the chance to be crowned

the overall UK winner in their respective category.Chair of the RICS London Awards judging panel, Hugh Kemsley, of

Matthews & Goodman said: “London has always been at the forefront of innovation and design and the RICS Awards are a fantastic opportunity

to showcase all that the city has to offer. From community projects to the maintenance of monumental and historic buildings this gives everyone the

opportunity to recognise the fantastic work being done in and around London.”

BATTERSEAPOWERSONBattersea Power Station Estates – agents for new homes at the iconic power station – is partnering a line-up of leading interior designers, to offer tailored packages for clients.

The range of services includes bespoke interior design, furniture packages and soft furnishings. The designers have been selected for their ability to create stylish interiors to suit all tastes and budgets. Services will range from simple furniture selections to complete interior remodelling. OKA, Fiona Barratt, Anna Casa, Kathryn Levitt, David Phillips, Johnson Naylor and KAI each bring a different style to cater to buyers who want an individually crafted home.

Tamara Ayorech Okello, head of interior design for Battersea Power Station Estates said: “We wanted to offer our clients a real choice so that their every creative desire could be met at all the different price points. The variety of the styles from the designers and design houses will ensure that each home makes its own statement at Battersea Power Station.”

The Estates team will also offer furniture packages to clients renting out their homes. A comprehensive service will bring the new spaces to life with bespoke pieces in soft furnishings and furniture from prices starting at £3,999.

The Battersea Power Station Estates team will help the projects run smoothly. From briefi ng the interior designers, managing suppliers and coordinating deliveries, to checking the fi nished work, the team aims to deliver an effi cient service for home-owners.

FASHIONFORCHARITYBellevue Road’s Fashion for Charity, hosted by The Train Station gym at Jaggard Way, Wandsworth, has raised funds for one of the best local charities Royal Trinity Hospice.

Guests at the fundraiser were treated to a glass of fi zz on arrival, a goodie bag and a draw for the raffl e. Once again Savills sponsored the show.

MARATHONMANLeigh Munday, sales manager of Kinleigh Folkard & Hayward, Clapham Common, is taking part in the Virgin Money London Marathon to raise money for Housing for Women.

The 80-year-old charity will use all donations to help vulnerable women access support and secure affordable housing for themselves and their families.

Leigh says: I’m a casual runner with dodgy knees who loves keeping fi t when I’m not looking after my two-year-old. I’ve run 10ks before for Housing for Women and am looking forward to this next challenge, especially as it’s for such an amazing and worthwhile cause. Working on Clapham Common defi nitely eases the pain of training, with 220 acres of green space, multiple running clubs and a racetrack there’s no excuse for me not to get out!

WILL THE HIKE IN STAMP DUTY ON

BUY-TO-LET PROPERTIES FROM THIS MONTH

MEAN A BOOST FOR FIRST-TIME BUYERS?

ALEX NATHANSONWARREN PUTNEY

From April 1, when a fi rst-time buyer and an investor or second home owner are both competing

for a property worth £500,000 it will cost the investor or second home owner an additional

£15,000. What the fi rst-time buyer wants to hear is that demand (from investors/second home owners, who

have more money) will therefore reduce, supply will increase, and prices will come down. But investors won’t mind paying an extra

3 per cent stamp duty if the purchase price is right.While it is a good time for fi rst-time buyers to enter the market

with more confi dence, they should not suddenly expect to have the market all to themselves or to pick up a bargain. They need to ask

themselves the principle and important questions: Is this property what I was looking for? Is it within the budget that I know I

can afford? If the answers are yes, don’t haggle too hard or you may still be renting when the Government brings in the

next stamp duty change.

MATTHEW SMITHKNIGHT FRANK BATTERSEA

The market is an unpredictable beast. Logically the market should slow as investors look elsewhere for profi t, while existing landlords, concerned about the

lack of future breaks, look to unload their investments and increase supply. This might be the Goldilocks’ moment for fi rst-time buyers

– time to snap up a deal without all those pesky, rich investors getting in the way.But are there lots of fi rst-time buyers waiting for April 1 to begin that long-

awaited purchase and will all the newly-available stock suddenly be under offer by the summer and prices consequently take an upward hike? Will landlords, decide

that the capital gain in London outweighs, however moderately, the initial 3 per cent surcharge? At this stage, it’s too early to call it, because the market

is, as I said, an unpredictable beast.

THEROMANCECONTINUESKingston Register Offi ce, where thousands of newly-wed couples have posed for photographs on the steps, is to be turned into fl ats.

And romantically the developers hope that at least some of the 14 new apartments will be bought as a perfect love nest for aspiring young professionals.

The good-looking Edwardian building, at the Norbiton end of Coombe Road, Kingston, saw its last wedding in August 2015 and was sold for £4.15 million to The Haywards Group.

The three-storey, 9,300 square foot building will be transformed into 14 luxury fl ats that will be launched on the market later this year by Colliers International.

Apartments will vary in size from studios to one and two-bedroom properties with asking prices ranging from £375,000 to over £650,000.

Located opposite Norbiton train station where trains run into London Waterloo every 15 minutes, the apartments would suit young professional couples looking to take their fi rst step on the property ladder together.

Ben Morris, New Homes Director at Colliers International said: “35 Coombe Road is an exciting new residential project in one of London’s key growth areas. Following substantial investment and regeneration in the area, Norbiton is fast becoming a popular destination among fi rst-time buyers, local investors and even down-sizers from Kingston and Richmond looking to take advantage of the fast connections to central London and close proximity to Richmond Park.”

pretty healthy slice of the Wandsworth Borough. My team here and I value nearly half a billion pounds worth of residential property

every year. Yes half a billion! No doubt you can appreciate that does keep us busy but when we are not valuing, we are out there selling or indeed getting other sales

exchanged. I have notched up just under half a billion pounds of sales out of this offi ce myself. As you might imagine, when you see so much you become pretty knowledgeable about

the market and I personally think that this is one of the factors that sets us apart from our competitors.

We have had an amazing start to the year and are building a fantastic register of new clients. We can only hope that the City stays out of trouble and the Brexit referendum causes

little effect on the market. I won’t jinx anything by suggesting what I think 2016 holds for us but there was doom and gloom from many this time last year.

Our colleagues at HQ have also been busy. Working for this fi rm we are blessed with fantastic insight into the property world beyond our glass offi ce on Bellevue Road. This week Knight Frank

published the 10th edition of our award-winning publication ‘The Wealth Report’ which analyses the trends of the past and predicts future ones within the prime property market but with a global

context. Why is London still considered the most important city in the world for UHNWIs? Where do the super-rich buyers come from? Why do foreign buyers invest so heavily in London?

It makes fascinating reading and, of course, has an impact on prime outer London areas such as Wandsworth as money from transactions north of the river often fl ows to the outer edges. Not that is all purely property related either. It touches on the recent landmark auction sales. Did you

know that Picasso’s Women of Algiers was sold for £179,300,000 in May last year? I would recommend popping into the offi ce to pick up a copy to peruse at your leisure. You will get

to see my newly decorated offi ce too! A reward for us having our best year ever and third record year on the trot! Getting back to the world of Wandsworth, though, we know we are seen by some as a huge corporate

machine but on a day to day basis we operate just like all the other ‘local’ agents around here. We just happen to offer all the extras too. Worldwide coverage, hugely experienced negotiators and world-class

research. To fi nd out more, please call me. Sam Sproston, Head of Sales, Knight Frank Wandsworth 020 8682 7777

FLAWLESSFINISHESWhen brothers Rob and James Holt founded Holt Construction

back in 2001, they set out to create a service that offered clients the complete package when it came to bespoke building

solutions. Fifteen years on, having tapped into the ever increasing trend among Londoners for home improvement, Holt have a growing annual turnover of £2.5m.

With both directors closely involved with every Holt project, the team has built a reputation for crafting exceptional residential properties that are not only innovative, but are also carefully project managed from start to fi nish; bringing in experts from a range of services to ensure every home is fl awlessly fi nished.

The Holt portfolio stretches across some of London’s most prominent property hotspots. Current projects include a contemporary ground fl oor extension and refurbishment to a family home in Heathfi eld Gardens, Wandsworth, as well as a modern outer skin extension to a Victorian family home in Dulwich Village.

In addition to construction services, Holt’s growing development arm also implements luxury residential projects, such as Fife Road, a stunning six-bedroom family home in South West London which epitomises contemporary family living.

This family-run business now comprises a permanent team of skilled tradesmen, site managers and project managers, as well as a back offi ce support team.

ALLCHANGE!Stepping over the loo to get into the bath was just one of the problems that a complete makeover sorted out, Tarryn Gorre tells Jenny Knight

There was no question of Tarryn camping out in her fl at while the renovations went on. After the tearing down started she had no sink, no toilet and no fl oor.

“I was lucky that my brother lived in Holland Park and although the commute was a killer it would have been impossible to stay put.”

Tarryn bought the one-bedroom Victorian fl at four years ago. It had been updated in 1986 with a kitchen extension but was looking tired and unloved.

“I worked out what I wanted and ripped out everything, the bath, the kitchen, the carpets. I had a fantasy that when the carpets came up there would be a lovely parquet fl ooring, but in fact there were newspapers for insulation and a concrete fl oor with the screed coming away.

“Before laying new wood fl ooring I had new damp proofi ng and a new fl oor screed, which took up a lot of the project’s money and was questionable because no buyer is going to walk in and say: ‘Oh great, they’ve got a proper damp proof course’, but it felt like the right thing to do because of the age of the fl at.

“I dug up the fl oor and moved the waste pipes so I could move the toilet to make space for a back wall, walk-in shower.”

The kitchen was another problem.“It was old school and pretty much falling apart with

the hob under the window and the sink in a corner. I moved the sink to the window and put in a built-in dishwasher and moved the washing machine to built-in cupboards in the bathroom, so all the laundry is in one room. I took out the island that separated the room and put in two windows with double-glazed glass, so now as you open the front door you have a clean line to the garden.”

One of Tarryn’s tips is to go for pale neutral colours so that accessories can be bright and colourful. Now her business Kafoodle, is doing well and she is selling up to look for a bigger project in the Wandsworth/Battersea area.

WHAT’SONTHEMARKET

THEYHAVE ITCOVERED

With a new Earlsfi eld branch Hamptons International is tightening its grip on lettings

in south London, Jenny Knight hears

There are now fourteen lettings offi ces for Hamptons International in south London, including Balham, Clapham, Battersea/Wandsworth, Dulwich, Wimbledon and Earlsfi eld.

Rachel Hanniquet-Brooking explains: “The new Earlsfi eld offi ce, that opened last autumn, bridges the gap between Wimbledon, Balham and Wandsworth. All our branches complement the others, so that, for example, someone living in Bristol with a fl at in south London could go into an offi ce in Bristol to sign papers relating to the London fl at.

“This January saw a much busier New Year in lettings. We were waiting for a rush of people before taxes go up, but the general confi dence in the London lettings market means we have not seen much of a change in buy-to-let. Landlords buying in London see such a strong capital growth that it is still affordable and we are not seeing a fl ood of investors either buying into or leaving the market.

“This year we have seen a return of family lettings that were quite sparse in 2015 – however, the one-bedroom fl at is still the strongest market for us. There is huge confi dence in the south London market. It is such a safe bet for investors that the capital value rises will absorb any extra taxes and I think the market will adjust to the extra three per cent cost on buying. The coming of Cross Rail will also be a boost to the market.”

The lettings market in south London is highly competitive, but Rachel explains the special appeal of Hamptons International.

“I compare us to the John Lewis brand. We have been around for a long time and we are people you can trust to give a quality service. If you have problems there will always be someone on the phone to deal with them.

“Our staff are 100 per cent dedicated and loyal. We are local people with children at local schools and we don’t want to be just another estate agent, but part of the community.

“As a team we are very close because we all share negotiations and stock. Someone who goes into the Earlsfi eld offi ce can get all the details on fl ats in Clapham or Fulham as well as ones in Earlsfi eld. This means that people don’t have to travel from offi ce to offi ce to fi nd out about the areas and the property available. We had someone who went into our Guildford offi ce and printed out details of a property on the Heaver Estate and then moved in.

“Our network is a great benefi t to landlords and applicants and allows us to give stronger customer service.”

A big change in the lettings fi eld that Rachel has noticed is a higher occupancy rate. “We now see two couples sharing two-bed fl ats, where previously we saw a couple and a single. Sometimes they get rid of the living room and turn that room into an extra bedroom. The landlords are happy because we bring a certain calibre of tenants. In a two-bedroom fl at with a sitting room and living room people are turning the dining room into another bedroom and eating in the kitchen. This helps makes the properties very affordable when split three or four ways and the landlord gets a better return.”

PERSONALPROPERTY

After 35 years living and working in the south London property world,

Philip Agius still gets emotional about pairing up home and buyer, he tells

Jenny Knight.

Philip, senior manager at Jacksons, reckons the best part of an estate agent’s job is helping people achieve their property aspirations.

“What I enjoy is the privileged position we have, sharing ideas and giving guidance on homes. A property buying decision can send lives off in new directions –

new neighbours, new friends – life can go off at a tangent. I think I ‘get it’, having been through the buying and selling process a fair few times. These connections matter to me

and I adore helping people achieve their ambitions for property and to move on to the next stage of their life.”Yet he is not so bound up with the romance of property that he abandons his determination

to get the best price for the seller. “I never tie up a deal until I am confi dent that the money is in place. I explain to the buyer

that the valuation may come in slightly lower and that the survey may show up a few points. It’s about managing the process so there are no surprises and no upsets.”He joined Jackson’s almost by accident, when he telephoned old friend and colleague Tony

McVeigh, who founded Jacksons 20 years ago. “I was selling our large family house and I called Tony, and asked him if he could fi nd me a house

to buy. He never answered that question. Instead he wanted to know what I was doing. He said he was opening an offi ce on Bellevue Road and asked if I would come on board to head it up.

“That was in 2012 and it coincided with Jacksons rebranding to refl ect their niche in the market, going from mid to upper, fulfi lling their potential as a successful, independent family-owned business.

It was an opportunity to work with people I knew, liked and trusted.”

He took over the launch, and spurning gimmicks or special offers, went straight into business.“We opened the doors with a good selection of properties from our other offi ces close by. I am reasonably

well known in the area through career, friends and associates and word got around. I am known for going the extra mile for my clients.”

One benefi t of being an agent offering a bespoke premium service to all clients, while selling properties across the range is, as Philip explains, that often Jacksons can fi nd buyers for all properties involved in a chain: the small

fl at, the medium-size house and the large detached house. Recently Philip has lent his expertise to the Jacksons’ offi ce in Abbeville Road.

“I replicated our launch at Wandsworth Common where we ran a colouring competition for children and fi lled the window with their art. At Abbeville Road we also have an annual Halloween colouring competition that has turned into

a major ‘Village’ event. Last time we had a marquee, face painting and games for dozens of local children.”Another attraction is the presence of Philip’s handsome Hungarian Vizsla, Purdey who comes into the offi ce two to

three days each week to recline elegantly, or when the mood takes, to charm clients. Jacksons has 12 offi ces across South West London, where staff are encouraged to sell or let any property from across

the network, avoiding the inter-offi ce rivalry of some other agencies. It’s touches such as these that allow Philip and his colleagues to say: “With us it’s personal”.

NEWHOMESUPDATEDesign-directed living is proving a big attraction south of the river, reports Mayow Short, head of residential sales at Savills Battersea

Much attention and investment has been focused around Battersea Park and Nine Elms over the past few years, with an incredible transformation of the area underway

promising new shops, restaurants and, of course, the extension of the Northern Line to make the area even more accessible with two new stations. We have had ongoing success with Embassy Gardens over each phase of the development, of which the most recent launched late last year with its celebrated sky pool and a new large Waitrose supermarket. Residents have now moved in to the first phase and the American Embassy itself will ensure there will be much greater employment opportunity in Battersea moving forward.

Further inland from the river, the fi nal phase of Macaulay Walk launched on the February 4 this year. Located in the heart of Clapham Old Town, the homes at Macaulay Walk form part of a fabulous mixed-use development, minutes from Clapham Common underground station. The selection of two and three-bedroom apartments were designed by award-winning architects Assael and developed by Grainger, with prices in the fi nal phase starting from £775,000 for a two-bed apartment. Following a high level of success from earlier phases, this launched with pent up demand from those who had so far been

unable to purchase an apartment and, by the end of February, only a couple of fl ats were remaining.

Battersea Square has been equally popular, with all of the apartments at the front now sold. The fi ve townhouses behind, set in

Battersea Square Mews, were designed by award-winning Tigg Coll Architects and offer a seamless indoor and outdoor living experience,

with a fabulous use of glass fl ooding the rooms with natural light. The houses are set within an exclusive private gated mews, nestled around a

village-like square with gourmet cafés, cocktail bars and restaurants, and are due to complete by late April, with one already sold off plan. Opposite,

Gordon Ramsay’s recently opened restaurant London Square offers another excellent dining choice.

We also have a really exciting new development in Wandsworth, Book House; a fantastic conversion of this iconic Victorian building by the award-

winning developer The Malins Group. The Book House is a smaller boutique scheme, increasingly seen in London, which offers all the specifi cation and

fi nish of a new build with the intimacy and discretion of a smaller building. One particularly popular aspect of the Book House apartments is the subtle

juxtaposition between the historic character and modern touches, such as under-fl oor heating under 17th Century herringbone fl ooring. I would recommend getting

in touch soon if you want to fi nd out more, as they are proving incredibly popular.

OHCANADA!L&Q, one of London’s leading residential developers, has

announced the first release of Private Sale homes at Quebec Quarter. Set in landscaped grounds in Canada

Water, within striking distance of Canary Wharf and a 15 minute commute from the West End, the development will offer

151 one, two and three bedroom Private Sale apartments and 69 one and two bedroom Shared Ownership homes.

The luxuriously appointed Private Sale apartments (mainly dual aspect) come with fl oor to ceiling windows, and an outside terrace

or balcony. Upper level properties have spectacular views. Quebec Quarter offers fast commuting times into The City and the

West End. The area is set to become even better connected following the completion of the proposed Brunel Bridge, connecting Canada

Water with Canary Wharf, in 2020. The increasingly vibrant area offers a number of popular independent shops, restaurants and cafes. The

Surrey Quays Shopping Centre is due to be completed within the next fi ve years.

Prices for the fi rst release of new homes at Quebec Quarter range from £770,000 to £845,000 for a three-bedroom private sale apartment.

Subsequent phases will launch throughout 2016 with the development set to be completed in early 2017.

REGENCYSTYLEThe show home is open at Cedar Place, the latest phase of

Berkeley Homes’ Wimbledon Hill Park development. The six new homes will be ready in spring and the four-

bedroom town house showcases the high-quality craftsmanship and luxury lifestyle available at Cedar Place. Built in Regency style with multi-paned sash windows, balconies and canopies punctuating its mellow brick facades the homes refl ect the heritage of the striking backdrop – Berkeley’s conversion of the former Atkinson Morley Hospital.

The show home features high ceilings, architraves and cornicing plus an elegant staircase. The formal drawing room is on the fi rst fl oor and runs the entire width of the house with a deep balcony overlooking the garden.

The master bedroom suite is complete with a dressing area cleverly concealed by a partition wall. Two sets of French doors open onto a balcony, offering prime views of the magnifi cent Victorian hospital building. The en suite bathroom features a stand-alone bath and triple-size shower.

On the second fl oor a guest bedroom mirrors the master suite on the fl oor below – with the en suite shower room again featuring a triple-size shower. Two further bedrooms, ideal for young children and a generously-sized family bathroom complete the deal.

Amenities at Wimbledon Hill include a gym, boardroom, private cinema room and a concierge service. Just beyond Cedar Place courtyard are 19 acres of protected woodland and fi elds while, Wimbledon Common is half a mile away.

Prices at Cedar Place start from £2,899,950 for a four-bedroom townhouse. New and refurbished apartments are also available at Wimbledon Hill Park with prices from £1,050,000. Berkley Homes 020 8003 6139.

Data from the Greater London Authority shows that, to date,

Shared Ownership has helped over 52,000 Londoners onto the

property ladder.Despite the scheme’s growing

popularity, L&Q, one of the capital’s largest providers of Shared Ownership

homes, reports that it still receives daily enquiries regarding eligibility

criteria, suggesting there remains a wide spread lack of understanding of

affordable home-buy options. Sachin Sony, who bought a Shared

Ownership home with L&Q in 2015, comments: “It took us years to figure out that

we were even eligible for Shared Ownership. Had we known about it a lot earlier we’d have

probably bought the property about three or four years back.”

To tackle this problem, L&Q has launched its latest campaign – PricedIn Learning. Hosted

on lqpricedin.co.uk, the organisation’s pioneering complete guide to Shared Ownership, the new

campaign offers an in-depth and un-biased look at the pros and cons of Shared Ownership, compared to

the Government’s Help-to-Buy schemes. Independent Mortgage Advisor Helen Wyles explains some of the

differences: “There are a lot of options now for first time buyers; the important thing is to make sure you choose

the option that’s best for you. The Government’s Help-to-Buy equity loan is great if you’ve got the funds to cover a

5% deposit and all the costs of buying a home – the loan is interest free for five years, but remember after that, you will

have to pay a monthly charge on it, and it must be paid back within 25 years.”

Shared Ownership, on the other hand, allows buyers to purchase a share in a property, renting the rest at a subsided

rate. The deposit required can be as little as 5% of the value of the share of the property.

Helen continues, “Shared Ownership is a fantastic way to get onto the housing ladder, it means you can buy a home of a higher

value than you would have on the open market, and the monthly payments are really achievable.”

Alice Turner, Property Marketing and Events Manager for L&Q, concludes: “With the recent announcement that over 175,000 more

Londoners will qualify for the scheme when eligibility criteria is ‘relaxed’ from April, Shared Ownership is now more accessible than ever. Our

Unknowing/Learning campaign aims to ensure that everyone has access to all the information they need to assess if Shared Ownership is right for

them – allowing L&Q to help as many people get PricedIn as possible.”For a complete guide to the differences between Shared Ownership and

Help-to-Buy, or to view some of L&Q’s Shared Ownership schemes, visit www.lqpricedin.co.uk/learning

MONEYMATTERS

GOODSIGNYorkshire Building Society has launched a two-year

fi xed-rate mortgage with a rate of 1.14 percent, making it the lowest on the market. It does come

with a fee of £1,345 which may, for some borrowers, make loans with a higher rate more economical, but the good news is that it is a sign that rates will remain low for some time. Rachel Springall, from Moneyfacts, said: “The market rates for the lenders have been falling so I don’t think this the end of mortgage price falls.”

MONEYTIPHomeowners looking to remortgage

in coming months are in for a treat with several new lenders entering the

market as well as traditional lenders formulating ambitious plans to increase market share.The upshot is good news for borrowers who

will fi nd a plethora of attractive rates and improved criteria, along with pricing. With fi ve-year Swap rates

– the rate lenders pay to borrow fi ve-year money – at less than 1 per cent, there are plenty of attractive

fi ve-year fi xed deals in particular to tempt those remortgaging who are looking for the security of a fi xed

rate. Mortgage rates are arguably as close to the bottom as they can be so you could choose a lender with a fi xed

rate you can lock into once rates rise.We are approaching the seventh year during which

interest rates have not moved from 0.5 per cent but just because they are benign doesn’t mean borrowers shouldn’t

take action.Mark Harris, SPF Private Clients

BOTHEREDBYBREXIT?Stay or leave – it shouldn’t make any difference to the UK property market, suggests Duncan Farmer

I am almost feel like apologising for the raising the subject of the EU referendum again, because many people will already have had enough of it, but the good news is that expert opinion seems

to think, that at least as far as the property market and mortgages are concerned, borrowers will see little difference whether the UK chooses to remain of leave.

Chris Broadhead of the Building Societies Association, says: “Irrespective of the response to the EU question by the UK population on 23 June, the housing market in the UK will still be there afterwards. Consumers will still need and want to buy homes and building societies will be supplying mortgages. Clearly this market works best in the light of a healthy economy, which is something everyone can agree on.”

Ed Stansfield, of Capital Economics, whose predictions over the years have been remarkably accurate, says: “I have to confess that my own view is that the UK will do reasonably well if we’re in or outside of Europe.”

A survey by Emoov suggests that a third of buyers believe that property values will rise if we remain in the EU, but there are some, including HSBC, who believe that leaving would lead to inflation, a falling pound and therefore higher interest rates. Stansfield says that the mortgage could survive some inflation and that things would have to be very bad indeed if we left before homeowners began to suffer.

“The fear doing the rounds is that currency will collapse to such an extent that it puts upwards pressure on inflation and inflation expectations. That means interest rates could well go higher than you would otherwise think they would. All being equal, that would probably tend to choke off demand for mortgages.

“Since the Mortgage Market Review was introduced, the compulsion to stress test new mortgage products against a three percentage point rise in interest rates should give the market a degree of durability that we shouldn’t see a massive spike in defaults and payment problems and bank losses, so you wouldn’t necessarily expect that to feed into a credit crunch in the mortgage market. You’d need to see the currency fall a very long way before that would become a big enough threat to the inflation outlook that the Bank of England would start to raise interest rates to the level that would start to cause problems.”

The London property market, says Stansfield, is slightly different. “It’s possible that the UK could be slightly less attractive for overseas buyers, in particular London. So you could see some drying up of demand, particularly at the top end of the London market, as a result of that. I guess, to an extent it also makes it more difficult for house builders to get overseas workers in, who are a key part of the construction sector.”

The other big economic factor to bear in mind is that whichever way the vote goes, the “winner” will have to work very hard to keep the economy on an even keel.

If Britain votes to leave, David Cameron would almost certainly resign and Boris Johnson would almost certainly succeed him and be under enormous pressure to live up to the promises made during the referendum campaign.

GARDENER’SHEAVENFor the first time in 50 years a lovely double-fronted Victorian house is on the

market, giving buyers a chance to snap up the detached house and divine garden.

The house features many period details and the fabulous garden is a safe place for children to play and perfect for adults to potter around, or to dine on the terrace.

The well-balanced accommodation is spread over two floors with lots of large windows and spacious rooms. In total there are four bedrooms, three bath or shower rooms and four other rooms. There is also plenty of potential to extend.

The house has been meticulously maintained and offers comfortable and spacious accommodation with plenty of space to entertain. The elegant reception rooms are evenly arranged around the reception hall together with the kitchen/breakfast room and conservatory/dining room that opens directly to the rear garden, as does the drawing room.

A shower room has been installed on the ground floor which means that, if necessary, the adjacent room can be used as a bedroom or possibly for a house-keeper or an au-pair.

The very useful cellar is ideal for storage but could be converted to provide additional accommodation for rooms such as a home cinema, gym or utility room.

Upstairs, approached via a half landing with a beautiful picture window overlooking the rear garden, there are four double bedrooms, two bath/shower rooms and a dressing room. The master bedroom with en suite bathroom and dressing room is located at the front of the house.

The garden is a wonderful feature of the property. A large, level lawn is surrounded by profusely stocked borders and a delightful summerhouse with a secret storage area. To the side of the house there is a carport and driveway parking.

The house is just a few minutes’ walk from Wimbledon Village High Street and the Common.

extremely high standard. The property is totally unique, the house is a complete

new build although the façade is sympathetically built in the same Victorian

style as the other double fronted houses in the street.

This house is completely detached (which is rare in the Toast rack) and offers an

unbelievable amount of living space on the ground and lower ground floors. Not only is

the floor area impressive but the sheer volume in all of the principle rooms gives the property a

tremendous sense of light and space. In addition to the three reception rooms there is an annex which

is linked to the house or can be accessed separately. The annex provides a further office/playroom space

and a staff flat. In total there are seven bedrooms and five bathrooms. The kitchen, bathrooms, utility

and general joinery are all of an extremely high quality. The well-proportioned garden has been beautifully

landscaped and the property also benefits from off street parking.

What’s going for it?

Kennington is such a good location for anyone working in Westminster, the City or the West End. The abundance of Georgian property is also a huge attraction. Kennington Cross has some great restaurants and cafés.

Well connected?

Kennington is on the Northern Line which provides easy access into the City and West End. Vauxhall, which is walking distance, is on the Victoria line and also has Overground lines.

And the schools?

The Pelican preschool, which caters for children between 2 and 5 years of age. There is also Archbishop Sumner Primary School which received an Outstanding rating from Ofsted.

Hangout at...

The Black Prince pub is a great place for food and drink; it also has a charming garden. The Prince of Wales is great in the summer as you can hire boules and play on Cleaver Square.

Where to buy

The area is very popular with first-time buyers. Chester Way, Ravensdon St, Methley St and Monkton St are sought-after locations. For houses, Cleaver Square has to be top of the pecking order.

WINDMILL ROADWANDSWORTH COMMON

LAST MILL STANDINGWandsworth was once driven by mills: windmills, watermills,

mills to grind corn, mills to mix gunpowder, mills to make paperand mills to squeeze the oil from fatty vegetable seeds .

They are now all but gone.Happily the smock mill , Wandsworth Common, remains standing, albeit without its sails.

Once used to drain water from the railway cutting, it is now a landmark, seen by commuters rocking out of Clapham Junction, home to Earls�eld, Wimbledon and darkest Raynes Park.

BATTERSEA BRIDGEBATTERSEA BRIDGE ROAD

Battersea Bridge is one of three road bridges, connecting Battersea with Chelsea.Designed by Sir Joseph Bazalgette it was opened in 1890, replacing the wooden structure,

celebrated in the paintings of Cotman, Grimshaw, Whistler and Greaves.

The present bridge has been restored to its original green, with the spandrels decorated in gilding.

Soon after its construction, Battersea Bridge carried horse-drawn then electric trams.Now it is where the 170 crosses the Thames.

A stunning home that needs work but will

be well worth itRobert Jacobs, Savills Tunbridge Wells


This dramatic country house with carved oak wall panels, Gothic arched windows

and touches of Tudor, is in fact a Victorian house, designed by

renowned architect Norman Shaw. When it was built one contemporary

journal condemned the gables and ribbed chimneys as ‘excessively ugly’,

but tastes change and it is now Grade II listed as a shining example of Shaw’s

Old English style. The drama begins at the majestic gated

entrance through a high archway, linking the tower to the house and continues

through the wide oak front door, into an impressive galleried reception hall, onto

the rooms with intricate architraves, and a balustrade staircase leading to the upper floors.

There are six bedrooms, three en suite, with an additional family bathroom. On the ground

floor there is the reception hall, the dining room with a carved stone fireplace, drawing room,

garden room, kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, butler’s pantry, sitting room, boot room and two

cloakrooms. The tower houses a games room, tower room and

roof terrace. Outside there is a garage block, a slightly-bashed-about hard tennis court, gardens, pond and

woodland, adding up to more than seven acres. Leyswood House sits in an elevated position on a

natural rocky crag in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, on the edge of a popular village, with views of

the countryside from the upper floors. During the Second World War the Canadian Army took over the site. Much

of the house was demolished in the 1950s leaving a more manageable family home.

COUNTRYSCENEMid Sussex is a happy place to live, says Sophie Wysock-Wight,head of residential sales atSavills Haywards Heath

Mid Sussex is home to the largest proportion of happy people in England, according to offi cial statistics.

The Offi ce for National Statistics collected data over three years to measure the wellbeing of more than 300,000 people across the UK.

On average, people rated their happiness between seven and eight out of ten, but the largest percentage of people rating themselves at nine or 10 was in Mid Sussex (39.3 per cent).

Sophie Wysock-Wright says: “Mid Sussex offers the best mix of lifestyle and that’s what is driving the market at the moment.

“It is probably the closest you can be to London in the south but you really feel like you are in the country with a real sense of getting away from it all, with beautiful villages around.

“We’re seeing a real upturn in buyers coming out of London who want to be in a village and within walking distance of a pub, but with good country walks on your doorstep and we have that here.”

Villages such as Horsted Keynes, Ditchling, Balcombe, Fletching and Ardingly are particularly popular.

“The coast at Brighton is also nearby and the glorious South Downs are on the doorstep,” says Sophie, who lives in Mid Sussex. “And there is a superb cultural scene, with world-class opera at Glyndebourne, near Lewes, and the annual Brighton Festival presenting a huge programme of theatre, dance, classical music and literature events.”

Excellent commuting and superb schooling are also a main draw to Mid Sussex. “Family houses are the core market here, although the excellent choice of property ranges from bijou cottages to substantial estates.”

Dominick Brown, director of residential

sales at Savills, Sevenoaks

shares his top tips for selling

in the Spring

Spring is traditionally a good time to sell your property, and with more properties coming to the market, here are a few simple

improvements that can be made to increase the chances of a successful move. Whether it’s with price

or presentation. Preparing the house for sale is essential. There is

no need to redecorate throughout, a new buyer would do that, but you need to show the house has been well

maintained.Identify the purpose of all the rooms and show off what

they could be. If you have a spare bedroom that’s currently used for storage, sort through it and ensure your buyers see it

presented as a bedroom. This will add to perceived space and usability for your home.

Keep your home warm. Homeowners with working fi replaces and ranges can really show them off to good effect at this time of

year, we can be sure that a warm and welcoming home that’s as loved outside as it is in, will help with a quicker sale.

Think about the outside as well as inside. Ensure grass is cut and the garden well kept; pathways and driveways should be cleared

and freshly gravelled; gutters and drains need to be clean and running freely. This creates a favourable fi rst and last impression.

Use garden furniture wisely. Although you may be thinking about putting away tables, chairs and benches, if you are selling your home

it’s worth leaving them outside so that buyers can see the space in action. If you do this, though, make sure you keep them scrubbed and

clean.When it comes to viewings, don’t go over the top with fresh coffee and

baking bread, but do make sure the house is de-cluttered. Remember it is still a home to be lived in.

Choose your agent wisely, don’t just go for the highest valuation and the lowest fee – it may not necessarily be the best or right one. It is important

that you get on with your agent and that they can demonstrate good market knowledge and a proven track record in selling similar houses.

Demand for rental property throughout Clapham, Wandsworth, Battersea and region is very active as we enter into Spring. Throughout January and February, we have found a large proportion of this demand is for one-bedroom to three-

bedroom properties as it is a natural time for young professionals to be looking for homes to see them through the next stage of their working lives. An easy commute to the city is key in their search.

Now that the daffodils are standing tall we notice the demand shifting to families looking for larger properties. They may be living locally, needing to upsize, moving from north of the River for more space or they are relocating from aboard and have been told South West London is the perfect spot.

More and more, tenants are choosing this pocket of South West London over central parts of London and, just this week, I have met with four families currently moving from Notting Hill, France, Italy and Singapore seeking large houses here. Increasingly, the area is attracting an greater number of corporate tenants.

Knight Frank Corporate and Relocation Services department has long-standing relationships with blue chip organisations. In our experience, these corporate tenants tend to be the most desirable as they invariably have excellent budgets and are looking to stay for a longer tenancy. They generally lean towards good-quality period properties with modern kitchens and bathrooms freshly decorated in neutral interiors. These type of applicants tend to be house proud and like to keep everything in a very good condition which gives landlords security that any wear and tear will be minimal and that their properties with be taken care of.

On the market AD.indd 1 09/03/2016 11:43

Tell us how you joined the property industry and describe your career history to date.My first job was selling life insurance. For five years I moved around the financial services industry then decided to follow my father into property, not in investments like Dad, but in estate agency. My first job, in Wandsworth, was for a large corporate. After five years I moved to another large firm, surviving the late 80s boom and bust. Then I joined one of England’s largest independent agents in Brixton. I remained there for 15 years as a senior branch partner. Having been born there, and knowing the area well, helped make these the most successful years in agency thus far. Now settled at Lauristons, I’m excited by the growing prospects and challenges ahead. What do you enjoy most about working in this market, and what have been your highlights so far?It is extremely challenging and competitive and this drives my passion for the industry. Adapting my marketing methods to market changes has proved successful, as I believe there is no bad market, just a different market. One of this year’s successes was registering a buyer whose property was under offer and had just lost a purchase. We secured a sale on a vacant property and exchanged in three weeks. The buyer and seller were overjoyed.

Describe the biggest challenges you face on a day-to-day basis.There are so many: striving to satisfy the demand as buyers far outstrip supply; taking the stress away from my clients and buyers; pushing to exchange contracts for that peace of mind and generally juggling various tasks which becomes second nature with experience.

In your view, how does the South London market differ from other areas of London?I have spent my entire career in agency working in South London. I have always found the population genuine, hardworking and fun. South London is vibrant,

LAST WORDVicky Tevari of Lauristons in Balham has the final say

cosmopolitan and multi-cultural as well as being within easy reach of

the City and West End.

What are your predictions for the sales market in South London for the

next few years?I believe that the market will remain

stable for the next couple of years with the rate of price increases slowing.

Interest rates will inevitably increase, but that is long overdue and expected. I’m sure

it will impact the market but I don’t imagine it will bring about a big change.

If you were Prime Minister for the day, what would you change or what new measures

would you introduce?I would certainly enforce the Government’s

policies and laws. It does appear that many agents are not policed properly, mostly small

independents, as in my opinion the Government seem to be targeting the more profitable agents as

they are able to afford the fines. I would remove paid parking at hospitals, for at least the first two hours.

You actually get that at most supermarkets!

Where, in your view, is the best place to live south of the river and why?

The riverside apartments in Wandsworth – river views, a stone’s throw from the Kings Road and great bars and

restaurants and easy access to the A3 for a quick getaway.

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

I would run for a council so I could spend revenue from parking on the residents and prove that councils are not about making a

profit but instead supporting their constituents.
