ask the expert…...lettings head

QWhat have been the key features of the South West London lettings market so far in 2014?

Angharad Gabriel, head of Savills South West London Lettings, replies ...

A In the current economic climate, tenants are typically prioritising quality of property above location.

Subsequently we’ve found the properties that are attracting the most interest and highest offers are ‘best in class’, with

excellent presentation key to achieving as close to the guide price as possible and minimising void periods.

Yields in South West London range from 3 to 5.25 per cent, while capital appreciation is forecast at 6 per cent for the year ahead in outer prime London, rising to 22.7 per cent by 2017.

Savills South West London Lettings has seen positive price growth over the last five years, with an increase of 18.5 per cent in Battersea, Clapham and Wandsworth recorded by Savills In Numbers research.

Encouragingly, this was well ahead of prime central London’s price rise of 1.6 per cent in the same period, making the area an attractive option for landlords. Across London the forecast for the future is also bright, with a 2.5 per cent increase expected in 2014, swelling to a 20.4 per cent rise by 2018.

In Clapham, Battersea and Wandsworth, UK tenants still make up the majority of the market, but international tenants – in particular those from Western Europe, Pacific Asia and North America – are prevalent in the rental market above £1000 per month, where they account for 45 per cent of tenants.

In the under £500 price band, and from £500 to £1000 per month, UK tenants account for more than 75 per cent of the market. The top reason for renting in Clapham, Battersea and Wandsworth is that tenants prefer to rent at 45 per cent, with 34 per cent moving to relocate.

At Savills we can advise landlords looking to invest in the area on the best property to buy based on your circumstances, whether you’re looking for a good yield or long-term appreciation.

marketviewSpring is here, so give your home kerb appeal. Cheryl Markosky talks to the experts

First impressions are all-important, says Mayow Short of Savills Battersea. “Often, purchasers drive by a property before viewing and a well-presented

home is more likely to entice them in.” Short’s three top tips to improve kerb appeal of a

property are: a fresh coat of paint for the front door, clearing the approach of weeds or rubbish, and sprucing up windows with regular cleans and matching shutters, curtains or blinds.

Becky Munday of Gareth James (GJM) Property in Peckham suggests buying flowers for photos and viewings. “Lilies are good, as you can get 14 days out of them.”

She also recommends organising window boxes, buying new towels (greying ones dangled about won’t look good), ironing bed sheets (for the photographer’s visit, if nothing else) and asking the agent’s photographer to come back when the rain’s stopped for the best front exterior shot.

“Don’t waste money on a new bathroom or kitchen, as your taste is unlikely to be the same as your buyer’s. Buyers like to think they’ll add value by changing these things and can be put off by show-home conditions,” Munday adds.

Creating a tidy path with slate chips can really make your home stand out, says Gary Howorth of Foxtons Putney. “Also, remember to keep bins out of sight.”

His colleague James Redington from Foxtons Balham says it’s important to consider the market you’re trying to attract. “A young professional may want something very low-maintenance, whereas a young family looks for a well-kept garden. My top tip is to keep it simple and neutral.”

Henry Sherwood of The Buying Agents says the best way to add value is to create less work for the new owner. “Most handymen charge around £20 an hour. It’s worth getting someone to do work if you don’t have time yourself.”

And don’t paint your house if others on the street are natural brick. Try to hide defects (“the surveyor will pick up on them”) and don’t waste money on fancy accessories if the basics are not in order first, adds Sherwood.

“Walk the route of your potential buyer towards the property,” advises Caroline Takla at The Collection LLP. “Are hedges trimmed, lawns cut and windows cleaned? These are key considerations often missed by sellers who’ve focused their efforts on internal housekeeping instead.”

Takla sums up: “Create an inviting impression from the outset and buyers will be full of high hopes for what’s about to be revealed inside.”

celebritywatchCelebrity chef and Wandsworth resident Gordon Ramsay is said to be talking to a leading hotel chain about opening a rooftop restaurant in a new £150m development at Battersea’s London Heliport.

Van Essen Hotels, who are launching a joint venture with helicopter fleet and private jet operators PremiAir, confirm they are in talks with an ‘internationally renowned chef’ for the hotel’s 14th floor destination restaurant.

According to new research, helicopter flights from the centre increased from 10,834 in 2003 to around 12,800 by the end of last year.

village vibeBecky Manwaring of Knight Frank takes South on a guided tour of Bellevue VillageATTRACTIONS Bellevue Village is one of London’s hidden secrets and its residents enjoy the benefits of country living in the heart of the capital. It overlooks the beautiful open spaces of Wandsworth Common and boasts quirky boutique shops and Michelin-starred restaurant Chez Bruce, a favourite with top London chefs. This exclusive village has a quiet, more relaxed pace of life compared to the hustle and bustle of Northcote Road.

SHOPS Bellevue Road is the perfect spot to shop. Tickled Pink offers an amazing array of gifts for all ages and holds an incredible jewellery selection. The Inside Man has a diverse range of exclusive gifts for men – socks will become a present of the past. Ladies can be dressed for success in the well-established boutique Sienna, and the shoe and boot range in Olivier’s Lounge will save you a trip to the West End. There’s also a fabulous new hair salon, Anthony Laban.

RESTAURANTS AND PUBS Enjoy cocktails and supper at Brinkley’s, the taste of the orient in The Good Earth, and a pint and pie in

The Hope. For special occasions, Chez Bruce will tantalise your taste buds: you’ll wish your birthday was every day.

LEISURE Wandsworth Common has activities for all the family including a large children’s playground, tennis courts and a bowling green. The strong-willed enjoy organised outdoor group workouts with Fit for a Princess and British Military Fitness. Otherwise enjoy a stroll around the pond, where you are highly likely to meet a lovely new puppy or two.

TRANSPORT Wandsworth Common is well located for transport and the area offers both overground and underground rail links. Mainline trains can be found at Wandsworth Common station with direct trains into London Victoria in approximately 15 minutes, together with all-day parking and sheltered storage for bikes. Balham tube nearby offers quick access to the City and the West End. Buses run frequently from Bellevue Road with the 319 going directly to Sloane Square.

the wordSpecial report by Stephanie Mant, sales manager of Cluttons Clapham

This year has started with stock levels at an all-time low and there are approximately 50 buyers to every property, which has

consequently driven up prices in Clapham. These inflated house prices will be overlooked

so it is still essential to market your home at its true value and ensure the property initially comes on at the right level. Many properties are being sold off-market: for example, three properties were placed under offer last week to off-market, chain-free cash buyers.

For City and West End workers, Clapham provides an easy commute on the Northern Line and Clapham Junction offers easy access into Waterloo and Victoria. The area has changed dramatically as people previously based in Wapping, Tower Bridge, Parsons Green and Chelsea now look to Clapham, where prices are still within reach, even with the increases. You can still buy a good-sized, five-bedroom house at the £1.5m to £1.6m level.

We have recently been instructed on a five-bedroom house on Garfield Road for £1,375,000. It’s a three-minute walk from Wix Primary School, a French school on Clapham Common North Side, which will suit many of our French buyers who are mainly in rented properties after moving to the area.

Two-bedroom properties are still in high demand, and the demand for one-bedroom homes is ever increasing for first-time buyers and investment budgets due to lack of availability on the market. Victorian conversions usually offer two bedrooms on the ground floor or two or three on the top floor, so when a one-bedroom apartment is marketed it is always very desirable. For example, a 314 sq ft one-bed flat in Webbs Road marketed for £350,000 achieved £327,00 at £1042 per sq ft – a record value for the area. The average is now £850 to £900 per sq ft.

We have achieved exceptional sales such as a two-bed property in Mallinson Road that sold off-market in one day to cash buyers at the £725,000 asking price. A two-bed home at Canford Road for sale at £700,000 sold off-market in two days for £750,000.

We recently sold a fantastic modern semi-detached family home offering an incredible alternative to the typical top-heavy Victorian terraces in the Clapham area. The 3600 sq ft property featured a great open-plan kitchen and family room, cinema room, spacious garden and off-street parking.

The buyers were living locally in a standard Victorian terrace and wanted a square footage upgrade, and this provided the perfect solution.

Overall, Clapham presents a range of unique properties and a great opportunity to live in a charming residential neighbourhood with wonderful open space and a selection of schools, shops and cafes.

Where is it? Battersea Square.

What’s it like? This is a fantastic Italian trattoria bar and deli with wonderful service. It also produces its own organic olive oil from the Catania region of Sicily.

And the food? Have the truffle pasta with a punchy glass of red wine and the world is a better place! But if you are on the go, then a visit to the deli counter is a must. So much of the produce is individually sourced and simply delicious. And the double espresso will wake you up before you go go!

ZONE INTrees for Cities and Friends of Clapham Common (FCC) volunteers have been working on improvements to the common’s Eagle Pond area, planting trees and wet-loving shrubs in a biodiversity zone.

FCC was also awarded a Western Riverside Environmental Fund grant to develop a small area to the east of Eagle Pond and create a sustainable wetland fed by overflow from the main pond. This work will take place in April ready for planting on June 1.

Award winnerA two-storey house knocked down and rebuilt by its owner, Tanya McIntyre, in Richmond won the Richmond Association Award for Design and Build.

The original property in Montague Road had been damaged during the Second World War and Tanya planned the rebuild to be more in keeping with the neighbouring Victorian homes.

“The award was a big surprise, but a very welcome one. It made all the time and effort worth it and I would consider doing a similar project in the future,” said Tanya, who completed the work with Steve McStea and his team from Advantage Basements.

After demolishing the old house, Advantage designed and excavated to create a lower ground floor with contemporary, full-width bi-folding doors to a large patio with terracing and steps up to the landscaped garden.

Inside, the house has an impressive front-to-back reception with piano, lime-washed oak flooring, and traditional galleried hallways. It also has solar panels that meet Code 3 sustainability levels.

Glittering successEstate agent Kinleigh Folkard & Hayward celebrated its success in 2013 with a glittering awards evening at The Brewery in London’s Chiswell Street.

More than 600 KFH staff attended the black-tie event to recognise and reward the highest achievers across all KFH business divisions. Top sales branch was KFH Earlsfield (team picture), managed by Rebecca May (blue dress), and best performing lettings office KFH Battersea, managed by Duncan Blakelock (left).

Art students to display designs on Nine ElmsBallymore Group has launched a competition with Chelsea College of Art, challenging Fine Art and Graphic Design undergraduate students to design hoardings for the Embassy Gardens development at Nine Elms on the South Bank.

Embassy Gardens is a landmark development next to the new US Embassy site at the heart of the new Linear Park, a green ribbon that will connect Vauxhall town centre with Battersea Power Station. Students have been asked to give their own interpretations of how Nine Elms will become a new neighbourhood for London, focusing on the impact of river and culture, architecture and Linear Park.

The judging panel includes local author and critic Stephen Bayley; Newport Street Gallery director Hugh Allan; Cllr Ravi Govindia, leader of Wandsworth Council; and Sean Mulryan, chairman and chief executive of Ballymore Group. Hoardings at the 500-acre site will be on display along Nine Elms Lane from the end of March.

Wordon thestreet

Danny Hardy, sales manager of Kinleigh Folkard & Hayward Battersea

Yes, I think we are in need of a review of the current levy on stamp duty. As

the average price of buying a home in London has recently gone through the £400,000 barrier, and government revenue from property sales has seen a sharp increase, we have seen renewed calls for reform on stamp duty levy.

As well as creating market distortions around the pricing points, stamp duty adds significant upfront costs to home ownership and is in conflict with initiatives like Help to Buy, which seek to help buyers who can afford regular mortgage payments but have limited cash resources to fund the initial deposit.

Simon Hardie, manager of John D Wood & Co Clapham

Yes. The market has risen dramatically since Gordon Brown set the

current levels for stamp duty land tax (SDLT) in 1997 and they seem inappropriate today. The average UK house price is now £250,000, which is where the 3 per cent threshold starts. This is rather unfair on first-time buyers, who should be paying the lowest level of SDLT as they enter the housing market.

Perhaps a tiered system would be better: 1 per cent up to £250,000 and 3 per cent on any amount over that value, repeated accordingly up the SDLT brackets. This would certainly improve the volume of properties reaching the market as people often cite the prohibitive cost of SDLT as their reason for not moving.

As average house prices reach record highs, should the levy on stamp duty be reformed?

Into the blueOut with the old, in with the blue. Cluttons has unveiled the estate agency’s brand new look at its Clapham branch at 125 Northcote Road.

The office features a boutique exterior and welcoming inside space for an improved customer experience. Designed to reflect commitment to the finest customer service, the interior is styled to feel more like a living area than an estate agent’s office.

All Cluttons offices in the UK and the Middle East will be rebranded in the company’s new identity in the next few months. Cluttons services span residential sales and lettings, commercial leasing and investment, consultancy, valuation, and property and facilities management.

COUNTRYThe Move to the Country Show, co-hosted by Douglas & Gordon, takes place at the Grand Hall in Battersea Arts Centre on Thursday 27 March.

Supported by Country Life magazine, this eighth annual event will feature 32 country agents offering advice to homeowners planning to make a move out of the capital.

Douglas & Gordon sales director George Franks said: “Last year we saw a significant uplift in the number of homeowners deciding to make their move to the country as house prices in the capital continued to increase. One of the biggest changes was the volume of homeowners opting to rent out their London home instead of selling, driven by a growing fear of being priced out of the market.”

Helping Londoners to move outHamptons is bringing a taste of the country into London when its Country Roadshow returns on Saturday 22 March to its Battersea, Richmond, Chiswick and Muswell Hill branches.

Launched last year, the event will provide Londoners with a first look at homes available to buy and rent in prime areas of the countryside. Last year, four out of 10 Londoners moved out of the capital, almost half of these to the South East and South West, reports Hamptons. Average age of the movers is 32, and the 30 to 40 age group accounts for 27 per cent of all moves out of London.

Earlier in March, Hamptons Battersea staged a French Property Seminar for buyers with aims across the Channel. Senior manager Jonathan Dyson said: “Over the past year we’ve seen a 20 per cent increase in local people looking to purchase a second home in France.”

to form SoHot Property. Their mission (and they chose to accept it) was to create a property development company with a difference, specialising in modern and well-designed living spaces.

A good example of what this dynamic duo can do is evident in the firm’s 11th project: the transformation of a Victorian terrace on Avening Road into a refurbished three-storey family house.

After buying the house in April last year, Flower says it was damp and in a bit of a state. “The previous owner had gone up into the roof but used the wrong tiles. As well as replacing them, we decided to move a wall to extend the kitchen and add bi-fold doors going into the garden.”

Flower points out that their assignment was aided by a good, sympathetic planner. “None of the neighbours complained about the proposed work and permission came through quite quickly,” he explains.

Most proud of the large, expanded kitchen and breakfast room on the ground floor, Flower says it was

an area where most of his and De Canha’s attention was focused.

“It’s the heart of the house, after all, and we’re pleased it leads out easily onto the garden. The garden’s not the biggest in the world, but the bi-fold doors open out onto additional space for this family home.”

Another prized spot in the four-bedroom house is the master bedroom suite, which runs across the entire second floor. It will offer the new owners privacy (the other three bedrooms and large family bathroom are on the level below) and great views from the top of the property.

Who would Flower like to see purchase the lightened and brightened house? “While designing the layout, I envisaged a young couple with one or two children living here,” he comments. “We swapped round the living room, making the lighter end with the bay window an area where the family could gather, while the darker end can be used as a snug to watch television.”

Jennifer Young-Thompson, sales manager of the Southfields branch of Kinleigh Folkard & Hayward, has had a good deal of interest in the house from families. She also suggests that this is an up-and-coming part of

Southfields, situated halfway between Southfields and Wandsworth.

“It’s close to King George’s Park, and there are some great developments going on, including the Ram Brewery project and The Filaments. Also, as you’re a bit further away from the tube, prices are a little bit cheaper – and therefore affordable.”

Another plus, adds Young-Thompson, is the house “is not OTT, but neat and tidy.”

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.

Sheraton Law – Same great results – Only Better!

New homes update

Special report by Knight Frank partner Mark Wilkinson

Much has b e e n made of

price growth in central London,

but increases in the prime South West districts of the capital have been nothing short of breath-taking. In the past year, Wandsworth, Clapham, Richmond and Wimbledon have all outperformed more high-profile counterparts such as Mayfair, Chelsea and Belgravia.

Lured by the green spaces of the commons in Clapham and Wimbledon and the park in Richmond, buyers are undaunted by paying premium prices in the South West corridor of London. With excellent transport links into central London – all of the above are only 15 minutes into Waterloo – fantastic schools, and large plot sizes for family homes, it is no surprise that house prices have been so buoyant. But the rate at which the market has accelerated is still impressive.

The Knight Frank housing forecast for Prime Outer London (covering prime South West London, prime North London and prime East London) shows that pricing here will outperform the Central London market in 2014 and 2015, and again will see nominal as well as real price growth from 2016.

As with much of London, there has been strong interest from foreign buyers in these areas but at the moment, in the new-build market, 90 per cent of

buyers are still UK residents. There is an interesting mix of foreign interest: for example, the most numerous foreign buyers of property in Wimbledon last year included Indians, Iranians and Italians. Richmond proved popular with American, Australian and Irish property searchers, and Wandsworth remains popular with Chinese buyers.

It is easy to understand the area’s appeal: the quality of life is excellent, there are numerous excellent private and state schools, and the proximity to transport hubs at Heathrow and Gatwick are a key factor. These future transport links look even better with the Northern Line Extension that will carve deep into Battersea. There is also the prospect of Crossrail 2, which will travel through this south-west corridor to end in Kingston.

The one issue that might compromise efficiency and accessibility in the market is the housing supply to these areas, with family homes and apartments for first-time buyers particularly sought after. Knight Frank has a number of new-build schemes in the pipeline in South West London, ranging from small converted police stations to substantial multi-phased projects, ensuring that at least in small part, we can deliver some much needed supply.

What the developer says ...

“From first concept, through to planning, construction, design and fit-out, maintenance and support, Guildmore provides high quality, sustainable buildings”

Executive trio on Firs RoadNewly completed next to peaceful mature

woodland, Purdue, Cullesden and Pine Crest are three new executive houses combining classic

styling and traditional materials with contemporary interiors and luxury fittings.

The homes at Kenley in Surrey are built by family-owned developer Guildmore. All three have three floors of living space that includes five bedrooms (two with en suites), two family bathrooms, and separate living and dining rooms.

Contemporary custom-designed German kitchens feature quartz surfaces and integrated Siemens appliances, and the homes at the Firs Road development also offer a study, utility room, media room, library and integral double garage.

Bifold doors from both the kitchen and drawing room will let the light flood in, and underfloor heating on all floors will keep you warm. Outside, each house has its own gated driveway at the front plus a large rear garden.

South of Purley, Kenley is 14 miles from central London while close to the glorious scenery of the North Downs.

The M25 motorway is a 15-minute drive away, and peak-time trains will take you to London Bridge or Victoria in around 35 minutes.

You can view the show home by appointment on Saturdays and Sundays from 10am to 4pm.

Preparing for the rate rise

Predictions for next spring ‘about right’, reports Duncan Farmer

It now seems highly likely that the Bank of England will raise

interest rates next spring – a year from now – because wages

are rising at or slightly faster than inflation. One member of the Bank’s Monetary Policy Committee, which sets rates, came up with the April date in a television interview and Mark Carney, the Bank’s governor, agreed the date was ‘about right’.

The wholesale money markets, which are a good indicator of future interest rates, suggest that rates will not rise by much. In fact, the idea of rates returning to their most recent highs of five per cent is thought unlikely by all but the most pessimistic commentators.

The fact that wages are rising at two per cent means that most people in work will be able to afford an increase in their monthly mortgage payments, but over the next 12 months there is plenty borrowers can do to soften the blow of higher payments.

The fixed-rate mortgage market remains buoyant and competitive, and as our best buy tables show, there are plenty of loans available now to which borrowers could switch and, almost certainly in the short term, reduce their payments, and certainly in the long term avoid the worry of rising rates.

However, the fixed-rate mortgage market is confused with some lenders raising their rates even though swap rates, the rate at which borrowers lend to each other, are falling. This is particularly obvious in the five-year market. Ray Boulger, of broker John Charcol believes this is because increased demand from borrowers is putting stress on lenders’ admin departments, and their response has been to make some products less attractive – for now at least.

“Therefore the short-term message for anyone wanting a five-year fix is not to hang around – rates are only going one way in the short term - but it would not be wise to chase rates up very far,” says Boulger, who singles out Hinckley & Rugby Building Society’s five-year fixed rate loan with a rate of 3.55 per cent for loans of up to 80 per cent.

Making regular or one-off lump-sum payments off your existing loan is also a great way to reduce the burden of higher rates. Whatever can you pay off your outstanding loan now will leave lower balance on which higher rates could be applied next year. Making regular overpayments will also get you into the habit of meeting higher monthly repayments. Most lenders allow repayments up to a certain percentage of the loan without penalty.

Those keeping an eye on the ‘best buy’ tables would have noticed that over the past few months, interest rates on fixed mortgages have been creeping up. The lowest-priced

deals have gone, but there are plenty of good rates still available.

Fixed rates are still cheap relative to where they were several years ago, but from here on there is only one way for pricing to go – and that’s up. Although many proclaim to know when interest rates will move, it is not an exact science. However, if you cannot afford for your mortgage repayments to rise, fixing is the only option.

If you need to purchase or remortgage in the next few months, it is worth looking at what is available now and securing a deal in advance. Some lenders will let you secure a rate up to six months before you need it, so you can lock into a cheap fix now.

Flood banks supportBanks have come in for almost incessant criticism over the past seven years, but now perhaps they deserve some plaudits.

After the floods, which left thousands of homeowners and businesses in dire need, many banks and building societies have been doing their bit to help. HSBC, Lloyds, Nationwide, RBS/NatWest and Santander have introduced a range of measures for clients affected by the flooding.

These include payment holidays on loans and mortgages, extensions to overdrafts or loans, and fast-track applications to help people pay for emergency repairs while they wait for insurers to meet their claims.

Although the waters did not make it into central London, it might be worth calling your bank (as well as your insurer) if you are ever struck by a similar disaster.

Borrowing more to climb on ladderFirst-time buyers have been driving the mortgage market forward in the past year, according to the Council of Mortgage Lenders, but they have been borrowing more to get on the housing ladder.

Figures from the council show that they borrowed 3.3 times their annual salary on average in 2013 compared with 3.26 in 2012.

The number of loans made to first-time buyers was up by 23 per cent in 2013 compared with 2012, but on average these borrowers still needed to find a 20 per cent deposit. The total number of loans to first-time buyers reached 268,800, which was 44 per cent of all home loans advanced for house purchases in 2013, and was the highest proportion since the turn of the new millennium. However, the total amount of money borrowed by homeowners last year was still less than half of that seen at the peak of the housing boom in 2007.

SMALL FEARSA group of UK lenders is increasing rates on mortgages for borrowers with small deposits because of increasing funding costs and fears of rising interest rates.

Yorkshire Building Society Group and Aldermore have raised rates on 95 per cent loan-to-value mortgages, which it launched last November, undercutting most of the big lenders. Its rates have risen by 0.2 per cent, which follows an earlier rise of 0.1 per cent.

NIGEL FIELDDIRECTOR WINKWORTH KENNINGTON020 7587 [email protected]

Properties in Kennington and Waterloo command higher premiums to some neighbouring areas, with demand for properties boosted by regeneration across the wider area.

Kennington and Waterloo appeals to a wide cross section of buyers: from first time purchasers and families to investors. Purchasers are attracted by the regeneration of the wider area along with fast transport links into central London (by tube or on foot), a variety of bars and restaurants and its wide selection of property choices. Kennington and Waterloo also offers great value for money compared to areas north of the river. Increased demand for properties resulted in a 7% rise in second hand transactions in the year to September compared to the same period of 2012.

Low rise brick built ex-local authority stock is popular with buyers who like the dimensions of the rooms and lower prices when compared to period homes. Meanwhile, at the other end of the ladder, super-prime new build apartments at Neo Bank side on Holland Street (to the north east of Waterloo) are achieving significant premiums. Average sales prices for apartments in 2013 on the

street reached £2.85 million. There are also some lovely period garden squares in the Kennington area, which are highly sought after. Cleaver Square is a pretty garden square with Georgian architecture which saw houses sell for an average of £1.3 million in 2013. In nearby Walcott Square with its smaller houses, properties typically sell for between £800,000 and 1.1million.

Kennington is also home to large prestigious houses such as those on West Square, just to the west of Imperial War Museum. One house sold on the square in 2013 at just under 1.8 million. Meanwhile, highest sales prices were achieved on Bedford Row, a small street in SE1 with a select new development of large Georgian style homes.

Renovated home in the spotlightClose to Wandsworth Common, this four-bedroom family house in Birchlands Avenue has been totally refurbished in a high quality update by its current owners, and there’s still plenty of scope to extend further into the garden or to excavate the basement.

The ground floor is semi open plan divided into three distinct areas: drawing room, dining room and kitchen. The impressive kitchen features high-gloss grey integrated units and white quartz surfaces, and has patio doors that lead out into a superb 60ft landscaped garden. The garden looks spectacular at night due to extensive feature lighting.

On the first floor are three bedrooms – two with built-in storage – and a family bathroom. The master bedroom takes up the entire top floor and has a semi open plan en suite bathroom with modern standalone bath, separate walk-in shower and eaves storage. The property’s total inside space is more than 1550 sq ft.

Birchlands Avenue runs south off Nightingale Lane and is handy for Bellevue Road. Northcote Road’s amenities are within easy walking distance, and the nearest transport is Wandsworth Common overground or Clapham South tube.

Expertly restored and modernisedBuilt in 1875, this elegant and

detached Victorian family house stands on a commanding corner

position in the John Innes conservation area and offers a host of original features.

The six-bedroom property in Merton Park has been sympathetically restored and modernised and is beautifully maintained, with three floors of living space plus a large garage and a cellar utility room. An impressive vaulted stairway connects the first and second floors.

A York stone pathway leads to the arched entrance porch with stained glass front door. A marble tiled entrance hall leads to two formal reception rooms – linked by folding doors – on the right and a large family sitting room with separate study on the left.

All three receptions have fireplaces with the family room featuring a wood-burner. Original detailing includes

decorative cornicing and ceiling mouldings, stained glass windows, deep skirting boards, and floor-to-ceiling sash windows in the two main receptions.

The bright double-aspect kitchen and breakfast room is fitted with hand-built units with granite work surfaces as well as integrated appliances such as Miele dishwasher, Neff ovens, Smeg five-burner gas hob with extractor, and Miele fridge and freezer. There’s also a walk-in larder.

Double doors in the kitchen open out onto a covered terrace and surrounding west-facing garden screened by mature evergreens.

Movie locationMeryl Streep and Jeremy Irons shared a secret

kiss in one of the ground floors rooms at this fascinating detached house in St Margarets,

near Richmond Park.Streep and Irons played the leading roles of two

forbidden lovers in the 1981 Oscar-nominated movie The French Lieutenant’s Woman, which features a number of shots of the property in St Peters Road.

It stars as the home of Irons’s character and appears in numerous shots including a lengthy scene on the veranda, garden views, interiors, and the tender Streep-Irons kiss. Streep’s character attended a garden party at the house.

Standing on a one-and-a-half-width plot, the seven-bedroom home has coveted direct access to the St

Margarets Trust Grounds in an area known as the River Grounds.

Two main reception rooms (of three) and a library area enjoy views over the garden and Trust Grounds, and they also lead straight onto the French Lieutenant’s veranda, spanning more than half the width of the house.

Featuring a patio, knot garden and mature trees and shrubs, the landscaped garden has direct access to the Trust Grounds through a wrought iron gate, as well as views of Richmond Lock and the Thames. The home has a double garage and off-street parking.

East of NorthcoteSalcott Road, featuring a fine

collection of matching semi-detached houses, was one of the

first streets Between the Commons to be extended to the east of Northcote Road.

Said to have been ‘loved and looked after’ by the current owners, a semi currently for sale here is close to Webbs Road and well within the catchment area for Belleville Primary School.

The front door opens into a wide hallway leading to a double reception room with oak floors and ornate marble fireplace. Light floods through the fully extended and glazed side return, and this space has been completely opened up to create a snug or dining room with stone flagged floors.

Semi open plan to this room is a fully equipped kitchen with granite composite worktops, a built-in dishwasher and double high-level ovens. A cellar and utility room is plumbed and wired for a washing machine and drier.

Upstairs, the rear of the house has been extended over the kitchen to create a large bedroom with French windows out onto a wrought iron balcony. This floor also has a family bathroom, double bedroom, and full-width master bedroom.

On the second floor, the loft has been converted to provide a second bathroom and a loft bedroom with eaves storage. There’s also room to create another bedroom at this level.

Located at the end of the street, the house has a long wide rear garden, and the deep front garden makes this an ideal property for a basement extension with a large front light-well. A secure walk-in storage cupboard at the side is ideal for bikes, prams, scooters and other paraphernalia that normally clutter up SW11 hallways.

Parlez-vous Franglais?

I often find myself strolling down Northcote Road or Bellevue Road with the family, and it never ceases to amaze me how our once drab British streets

are becoming more and more European. Cafés and delis are plentiful with customers

supping cappuccinos and lattes while nestling precariously on the tables and chairs adorning the footpaths. The weather is never the balmy sunshine expected at a piazza in Italy, but this doesn’t seem to deter people from enjoying an alfresco catch-up with friends over coffee and a brioche.

It made me question when our rather staid British characters began to embrace this café culture and realise what a truly international area we are these days. English no longer dominates - it mixes with French, Italian, Polish and everything in between with wonderful effect.

We are no longer limited to a ‘caff’ offering builders’ tea and a bacon butty. We now have the option of a Frappuccino and smoked salmon bagel, or even a warm quinoa salad with edamame and tarragon. Diverse culture is part of living in London and we are embracing it with an open mind.

A great deal has been made in recent years about the influx of foreign buyers into London and their effect on the property market - namely the increased demand leading to inflated prices. This may be one way to look at the situation. However, modern London is a true melting pot of cultures and backgrounds and this is one of the main reasons we have enjoyed such a big property bounce-back in the last couple of years.

Prices are driven by demand, and the demand has been unprecedented in South West London. It is no coincidence that last year nearly 40 per cent of our buyers hailed from overseas as they are drawn to an area that is fast becoming an international hub.

Parlez-vous franglais? If you don’t now, you may soon be in the minority.

It’s all happening in NunheadNunhead has lots and lots going for it – and even more going into it! Furthermore last month it saw the doors open on its first and very own local high street estate agency. What’s happeningHaving secured nearly £1million last year to regenerate its high street, (work-in-progress as you read),they have just scooped a further £130k from the Mayor’s Pocket Park Fund to improve the Green, You can see shooshed-up shop fronts, and updated lighting and signage. Committees are in place to create community events for markets, music, art and film. The theme is vintage, through and through and Nunhead is nurturing have that lovely bespoke, hand-made feel. It is the next Lordship Lane.

What’s on the high street? It’s got everything you need and will soon have more. Fish-lovers have been travelling to Sopers for years. Ayres Baker sells home-baked bread and cakes in portions sizes that would feed the 5000. HA Smith Butchers has a loyal following while F Rudd will provide your vegetables. Bambuni is an A1 deli and coffee shop. Wendy at AG Flowers is the ONLY place to go for the loveliest hand-tied bouquets, gifts and cards. Pete will fix your bike, Matthew will mend your shoes and cut your keys and Krystal Pharmacy will provide the means to make you well when you feel poorly and sell you practically anything you can’t get in any of the other shops. As for hair and beauty, you are utterly spoiled for choice The Old Nun’s Head is a fab pub on Nunhead Green with an open fire, music nights and good restaurant. It’s also home to Pull the Other One, South east London’s very own, once monthly Jongleurs. The Ivy House, is London’s first cooperatively owned Pub. The famous 1840 cemetery

provides a social space for every dog that has tired of the Rye. Since March with the opening of our new themed and vintage branch of Roy Brooks, Nunhead can get all its local property needs tended to without having to go to neighbouring big-brother, East Duwich- – a good sign of an area having’arrived’.

Housing stock You will find Victorian terraced housing with an amazing variety of styles: and all at 10-20% cheaper than you will find in neighbouring East Dulwich. If you like a quiet residential feel, then the triangle between Cheltenham Road and Ivydale and the Rye/ could be for you. There you can find three double beds,1400 sq ft and extension potential at around £650k. If you prefer to be closer to the action, then the top end, 4/5 bed semis with 1600-1800 sq ft in Carden rd and Barforth Rd will come with price tags in the £800 -£900 range, a few exceptionally pretty double fronteds in Tresco rd will be approaching £1m. Talking of pretty, St Mary’Rd has a unique charm and the half-houses in Waveney Ave are to-die-for, but there are many pretty roads of 3 bed terrace starter-couple homes in roads like Hollydale, Gordon, Kirkwood in the £650 range. 1bed flats start at £300k 2 beds at £350k. Nunhead station (zone 2) serves Victoria, Blackfriars, Farringdon, City Thameslink and St Pancras.

country vibeJames Lloyd, associate director of Savills Cranbrook, takes South on a guided tour of Goudhurst in KentATTRACTIONS Goudhurst stands high on a ridge offering wonderful views over the Kentish Weald. Even better are the views from the top of St Mary’s Church tower: it’s said you can see another 40 church towers and even spy the skyscrapers of London. With the distinctive white weatherboards on many of the houses, and the medieval layout of its streets and alleys, Goudhurst has maintained its wonderful history while growing into a bustling village in the heart of the Kentish Weald.

SHOPS AND SERVICES All the local amenities one would look for in a country village, such as veterinary surgery, hairdressers, newsagents, pharmacy, and post office.

TOP RESIDENTIAL STREETS High Street leading onto West Road and Church Road has many wonderful village houses in a central position with wonderful gardens. Many superb surrounding villages and towns such as Cranbrook, Benenden, Rolvenden, Sissinghurst, and Frittenden offer delightful period houses and many country houses tucked away in meandering country lanes.

RESTAURANTS AND PUBS There’s an abundance of choice but the ones that spring to mind are the Goudhurst Inn, The Vine in the High Street along with the Star and Eagle Hotel, and in surrounding villages The Bull at Benenden and the Three Chimneys in Biddenden

LEISURE There are the ever-popular cricket, rugby and football clubs, as well as

Hemsted Forest, Lamberhurst and Dale Hill golf clubs. Wealden Sports centre in nearby Cranbrook offers swimming, a gym and fitness classes. Places to visit nearby are Finchcocks Musical Museum, with its beautiful cellar restaurant in an 18th century Grade I listed manor house; Scotney Castle with one of England’s most romantic gardens; and Sissinghurst Castle with celebrated gardens designed by writer Vita Sackville-West and her husband Harold Nicolson in the grounds of an Elizabethan mansion. For retail therapy, historic Royal Tunbridge Wells is only 20 minutes by car.

SCHOOL Goudhurst has both sought-after state schools and many excellent private schools within easy reach, and falls within the desirable Cranbrook School catchment area. Schools include Goudhurst and Kilndown Church of England Primary, and the preparatory schools of St Ronan’s, Sutton Valance, Marlborough House and Dulwich. Secondary schools include Benenden, Bethany, Goudhurst, Sutton Valance, High Weald Academy and Cranbrook – a selected state day and boarding school. There are also a number of well-regarded pre-schools and nurseries.

TRANSPORT Goudhurst is five miles from Marden station, which has regular mainline services to London Bridge and London Victoria (from 48 minutes). The A21 is close and connects to the coast and national motorway network.

Special report by Sophie Wysock-Wright,

head of Residential Sales at Savills Haywards Heath

East and West Sussex are forecast to be two of the top-performing urban areas outside London for house price growth

over the next five years, according to a recent report by Savills. Brighton and Hove are also on the list.

Savills anticipates a modest but progressive improvement in mortgage lending, and as a result the greatest impact is likely to be in higher-value local markets with more in-built housing equity, most prevalent in the South of England.

While the strongest five-year growth will occur in the South and East of England, Savills forecasts that all regions will outperform London over the next five years in terms of price growth.

The UK mainstream housing market as a whole will see average price growth of 25 per cent over the five years, according to the report.

With strong positive sentiment, Savills Residential Research expects prices to rise by 17 per cent in the next three years alone, but total five-year house price growth will be capped by earnings growth, given the likelihood of interest rate rises that will erode mortgage affordability.

Given the diversity within the UK housing market, national measures of performance rarely reflect regional or local market trends. However, West and East Sussex, which represent much of the upper mainstream market in the region, are predicted to be some of the top performers over the next five years, driving housing market recovery and price growth.

The extent to which lower-value areas will follow this lead will be limited by the extent of ongoing constraints on mortgage lending. This means, even in a more widespread recovery, there will still be regional and local market divides.

Broad Highway splendourOn sunny days, they open up the glass doors at

the back of their house in Cobham and enjoy wandering out onto the terrace or down to the

heated swimming pool at the far end of the half-acre garden.

The current owners bought this detached Edwardian half-tiled Surrey house around 17 years ago and set about renovating and extending it to create a magnificent lifestyle home.

“Initially it was a case of location, location, location,” said one of the owners. “Broad Highway is probably one of the nicest roads on the gated Oxshott Way Estate. We wanted to be in the area because of the schools and here the houses are set back, there are lots of grass verges and the road is very private. In addition, our house is on top of the hill, which really gives it a premium position.”

Since buying Hillside, the owners have carried out two major extension projects. The first saw them build on to the south side of the house to create a study and extra bedroom and bathroom.

“We then extended the kitchen greatly and at the same time added another bathroom and modified one of the bedrooms,” said the owner. The whole house, now featuring five double bedrooms and three bathrooms, was redecorated throughout and windows were double-glazed.

“People come in now and comment on just how light the whole place is. They have said it reminds them of an Australian house.”

Offering superb open plan living, total inside space of almost 4150 sq ft includes drawing, dining and family rooms, a downstairs study, and an integral double garage.

Finding your space The lure of Surrey is being felt

strongly in southwest London. Homeowners who have seen

their properties appreciate in value are heading down the A3 to get more bang for their buck, access excellent schools and remain a commutable distance from the capital.

What’s more, according to research from Savills, property in the county is expected to outperform central London this year, with prices rising by 6 per cent, compared with 3 per cent in the capital. By 2018, values are expected to have increased by 31.9 per cent in Surrey and 24.4 per cent in central London.

But with stock levels notoriously low, how do you find the right property and crucially, don’t pay more than you need to for it? This is where Paul Frost comes in. A former banker, Frost is now the director of the Surrey office of leading property advisory and buying agency Prime Purchase, an independent subsidiary of Savills estate agency.

‘We always have our eyes peeled,’ Frost says. ‘Buyers from London who head down here on Saturday morning hoping to see 30 suitable properties are going to struggle. Many sales are off market, on the quiet, and those properties are not accessible to these buyers.’

Frost ensures his clients get to see all the suitable properties on the market, often ahead of the competition. He can advise those who don’t know the county as to which villages are best for commuting into London, which roads offer a quick school run, and which are the best schools.

Lack of stock is an issue in Surrey, as with every other prime location, but it is improving and Frost believes that as more buyers show an interest, this will encourage prospective sellers. ‘In the £1m to £2m bracket there has been an improvement in the number of properties available,’ he says. ‘Higher up the price bandings, it’s still relatively sporadic, particularly in south Surrey, around Guildford. This makes pricing more difficult which is why a buying agent is all the more useful.’

The problem is that while comparables are easy to come by in London, it is trickier in Surrey where you are comparing different villages and different-sized houses. ‘A buyer may be delighted to have knocked £250,000 off the asking price of a property but in all likelihood it should have been priced £400,000 lower in the first place,’ says Frost. ‘If you don’t really know the market how can you know what you should be paying?’

Frost has a detailed database of what prices have been paid in the past and guides his clients through the process. With him on your side, the chances of finding the right property at the right price are greatly enhanced.

Special report by Richard Hole, head of Savills Putney Lettings

Putney’s lettings market progressed nicely last year, recording a 1.5 per cent rise

in contrast with stagnant growth in key areas of prime central London. Property quality was the top

priority for tenants in 2013, who were often willing to scour a wider search area and compromise on location to find their ideal home.

Best-in-class rental properties flew off the market across all price brackets, with strong interest from British and overseas applicants alike. For example, a stunning raised ground floor one-bedroom flat in Spencer Walk was let at asking price within a week of being on the market with us. With fresh, bright interiors, access to beautiful communal gardens, and an ideal location moments from Putney Overland and Putney Bridge underground, it was a highly desirable option for tenants.

Relocation came first among the reasons for renting in Putney, with 53 per cent of tenants citing this as their motive for moving. From under £500 per week to over £1,000, the mix of international and UK tenants has remained relatively consistent in Putney, with close to a 50/50 split between the two.

Attractive residential streets full of high-quality Victorian and Edwardian stock, complimented by contemporary new developments, create a great choice of property in the area. In Deodar Road, an incredible two-bedroom apartment with panoramic views, occupying the entire top floor of two beautiful adjoining period houses with a stunning roof terrace and off-street parking, has just gone under offer. This unusual property was previously the home and studio of Sidney Nolan, one of Australia’s best-known painters and printmakers. The property is ideally located for the Wandsworth River Taxi service, Putney Bridge and East Putney tubes as well as Putney mainline station.

Looking ahead to 2014, we’re optimistic the Putney lettings market will see further growth, with an increase of 2.5 per cent forecast for outer prime London next year, and a 20.4 per cent rise predicted by 2018.

As an office, we’re looking forward to continuing our longstanding relationship with Cancer Research UK. This year we are donating £500 to the charity for sales or lets through Savills Putney office with the presentation of our relevant flyer, which we hope will make a substantial contribution to the cause.

SMITH’S YARDThe open plan reception and contemporary fitted kitchen of a recently refurbished flat in Earlsfield features a door that takes you out onto a roof terrace.

Neutrally decorated, the split-level property at Smith’s Yard – off Summerley Street – has two double bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room and both with fitted wardrobes. The main bathroom has a bath and separate shower cubicle. Earlsfield railway station is nearby.

Serving water to Henry VIII

Set in the grounds of Hampton Spring is a 16th century well house built under the instructions of Henry VIII’s lord chancellor, Cardinal Wolsey, while the king was working on Hampton Court Palace.

Three conduit houses originally supplied water from the Kingston Hill springs, which Wolsey believed offered valuable medical benefits, to the palace three miles away. Engineering skills were so good that the system served the palace with water until 1894.

In George Road on the Coombe Estate, Hampton Spring sits behind secure gates in almost an acre of south-facing grounds, impressively landscaped with lawns, a terrace, mature flowerbeds and a swimming pool. Not forgetting the historic Tudor conduit house.

The property offers elegant Edwardian style throughout and features a fabulous drawing room, interconnecting sitting room and formal dining room, all with access into – and views of – the beautiful gardens.

On the first and second floors are eight bedrooms including the master suite with two dressing rooms and a luxury en suite bathroom. There are six more bath or shower rooms, and the property includes a self-contained staff flat with guest accommodation.

Hampton Spring, George Road, Coombe, Kingston upon Thames, guide price £19,500 per month, Savills 020 8971 8124

Birchlands Avenue £1,595,000 Freehold

This truly stunning family house has been completely refurbished by the current owners to an extremely high standard. The interior is beautifully fi nished and there is a tremendous sense of light and space. The quality of the refurbishment is evident in every room and the property works as well for entertaining as it does for everyday family living. One of the most striking features of this house is its width measuring 20 foot across. Whilst the house has been recently redeveloped, there is still plenty of scope to extend further into the garden and to excavate the basement.

020 7228 5111 | www.ramptonbaseley.com

Tell us how you joined the property industry and briefly describe your career history to date.I was at a loose end job-wise, and had bought and sold a house through Joel (my current business partner). We got on very well and became jolly good mates. I wanted to get into the property game and he suggested I work for him as his ‘Saturday boy’. We then went our separate ways professionally but stayed firm friends.

Seven years later, in summer 2007, we were both managing rival estate agencies on Northcote Road when he called me from Italy to say a friend had bought 131 Northcote Road. He asked if we should open that top-end independent agency we’d always talked about, and I said: “Go on then, as long as we don’t have to wear suits.”

What do you enjoy most about working in this market, and what have been your highlights so far?Definitely the people. Between the Commons is rare thing in London: a place with a sense of community. A lot of nice normal people live here. Also I get a lot of enjoyment out of our staff. I don’t mean to get all David Brent here, but when you run your own business, you can handpick your team. You get to work with people you know will do a good job, and that you will also like.

Describe the biggest challenges you face on a day-to-day basis.At times like this, merely finding enough time in the working day to satisfy the demands

made on me, my staff and the office as a whole to keep the show on the road. It can be madness – a bit like the dealing floor in the movie The Wolf of Wall Street – but what a buzz!

How difficult is the current market for homebuyers, and what advice do you give them?Pretty bloody tough and it’s a bit of a bunfight. We have applicants on our books who have missed out in numerous sealed bids over recent weeks, and have now been priced out of the Northcote Road area.

In your view, how does the South London market differ from other areas of London?It used to be quite different: almost exclusively domestic and much less heterogeneous than north of the river – less global perhaps. That’s changed and all that world wealth coming into central London has mixed it all up a bit. We’re becoming quite South Chelsea.

If you were Prime Minister for the day, what would you change or what new measures would you introduce?I’d emulate the Scottish system: offer made, accepted, done deal. That would make the process so much simpler and more enjoyable for all involved.

Where, in your view, is the best place to live south of the river and why?I’m South London born and bred – Barnes 30 years, man and boy – and a few years ago that’s where I would have chosen for its quasi-village life within this teaming and vibrant global metropolis. However, Heathrow’s expansion (incoming flights every 90 seconds from 5am on) and the last decade spent living and working down Nappy Valley way, means it’s deffo here now.

If you were not an estate agent, what career would you choose and why?A doctor – truly meaningful and life changing for all involved.
