Selling agent Connells is pleased toannounce the launch of WealdenGrove, an exclusive collection ofhouses in Horsham, will take placeon Saturday 24th and Sunday 25thJuly.

“The launch event will give peoplethe opportunity to view the showhome and see for the intricate detail-ing that has gone into the design ofthese fantastic houses,” says Connellsnew homes sales and marketing man-ager, Sarah Turpin.

granite work surfaces over. Someproperties also benefit from a utilityroom.

Family bathrooms, en-suites andcloakrooms have stylish white suites

with complementary chrome plateddual control mixer taps to the washbasins and baths.

Other features include ceramicfloor tiling to kitchen, breakfast area,

utility room and all wet rooms, a land-scaped front garden and wiring to in-clude a ‘loop’ system that will allowthe picture output from a video, DVDplayer or satellite decoder to beviewed in all rooms fitted with a TVsocket.

ing features including, dual flushmechanisms to toilets, energy effi-cient and thermostatically controlledgas central heating and A-rated boiler,recycling bin in kitchen cupboard andthe provision of bat boxes.

“We are very pleased to be market-ing such a wonderful collection ofhouses, which are due to be com-

More people appear to be interested inbuying a home in the UK, as the NationalAssociation of Estate Agents (NAEA) has ob-served an increase in demand.

Figures from the organisation revealed theaverage branch saw registrations by 279 househunters in June, compared to 265 the previousmonth.

And the proportion of potential first-timebuyers among them remained steady at 21 percent.

The NAEA suggested the rise in stamp dutythreshold to £250,000 may be contributing, al-though president Michael Jones called formore finance to be made available to thosehoping to purchase a property.

"If the banks ease up on mortgage lendingrestrictions then with a bit of luck, the summermonths will see the sales figure rise in linewith demand," he said.

The figures follow research from Defaqtoshowing the availability of discount mortgageshas dropped by 72% in the last three years.

NAEA reports rising demand

Paul Watts from MortgageSolutions Limited com-ments on The Bank ofEngland’s decision to con-tinue their policy of hold-ing the bank base rate at0.5% for the 17th consec-utive month.

“Now that the new coali-tion government have putforward their emergencybudget and plans to tacklethe public deficit, the effectof these proposals will meanless disposable incomethrough rises in direct andindirect taxation for mostpeople.

The Monetary PolicyCommittee may have feltthat raising interest rates atthis time would potentiallystop what is currently verymodest growth in the econ-omy.

The last month or so hascontinued to see lenderstrimming their mortgagerates to prospective borrow-ers with Moneyfacts report-ing the average 2 year fixedrate now standing at 4.51%.

Recent lending patternshave suggested that bor-rowers are increasingly opt-ing for fixed rates overvariable deals with morepeople choosing fixed ratesin June 2010.

As always the questioneveryone will want an an-swer to is - when will inter-est rates rise?

Once again the answer isno-one really knows, fromour understanding the opin-ion currently is that follow-ing the announcementsconcerning public financesand the likely impact that

this is going to have on pub-lic sector jobs, incomes in-terest rates are likely to staylower for longer, but thatdoes not necessarily meanthat rates will not start tocreep up slowly!”

Paul Watts is a Director ofMortgage Solutions Limited.

A wildflower meadow is the per-fect neighbour for Bennetts, afive bedroom farmhouse datingback to the 16th century in thevillage of Wiston, just outsideSteyning.

The current owners have rentedthe adjacent meadow from theWiston Estate, as did their prede-cessors. It is understood thearrangement could continue withnew owners of Bennetts which isnow on the market with HenryAdams (Storrington) for £925,000.

Extending to around half anacre, the meadow is accessed di-rectly from Bennetts’ garden and isa haven for wildlife and wildflow-ers. The blooms change with theseasons, from yellow and white inMay to purple in July and dark pinkin August, all attracting bees inabundance.

The large farmhouse kitchen ofBennetts looks out to the tradi-tional English country gardenwhich has been planned also withwildlife in mind, such as the sixbuddleias to attract butterflies.

With the same attention to detailthe house has been lovingly re-stored, from complete redecora-tion in keeping with the Grade IIlisted property to installing thepracticalities of central heating(with period radiators in the re-ception and dining halls) and anew water cylinder.

The dining hall has an originalinglenook fireplace dating to atleast 1673, while through the liv-ing room is a later extension whichcurrently serves as a garden room,but could equally be a morning

room or family room. The largetriple aspect windows provideplenty of light and an idyllic viewof the neighbouring meadow.

But none of the character hasbeen lost, rather it has been re-vealed. The second bedroom haswick marks on the wall beamswhere night candles would haveburned and the twin aspect win-dows cast a gentle light. The mas-ter suite also has twin aspects overthe countryside, a dressing roomand an ensuite bath and shower

room.Stairs lead from the landing to

the second floor with a perfectarrangement for growing childrenwho want their own space of astudy/playroom which leads intothe bedroom.

Outside, the double garage isformed from a granary barn whichapparently used to be over theroad, until a previous owner had ittaken down and reconstructed,brick by brick, including the gran-ary store itself.

Bennetts is set within WistonsEstate, extending to some 6,300acres, which appears in theDomesday Book and has beenowned by the Goring family foraround 300 years.

As a result, few of the houses lo-cally are privately owned and thereis unlikely to be future develop-ment in the area.

BENNETTS IS SET WITHIN WISTONSESTATE, WHICH APPEARS IN THE DOOMSDAY BOOK

Sophie Weston has now been running her property lettings company Weston Lettings for just over a year and is proud to report how successful it has become.

Originally from Surrey, So-phie spent 17 years working for the Metropolitan Police, qualifying as an inspector. She policed the diverse and chal-lenging areas of Brixton and Streatham in South London. When the time came to start a family the decision was made to move out of the area and find a quiet spot in the coun-try.

Sophie and her husband James decided to settle in the beautiful village of Warnham after falling in love with a charming cottage they spot-ted in the paper. “When I saw the advert I said to my hus-

band ‘That’s the one’, so we zoomed down and made an offer” says Sophie.As time passed the Westons were blessed with two daugh-ters and Sophie made a deci-sion to take a career break and stay at home to look after the children. Inevitably fi-nances became stretched and they decided to let their prop-erty out and rent a smaller more financially manageable property for themselves. It was then that Sophie, disap-pointed with the service they had received from the Letting Agents, said to her husband, “I can do better than that”. It was then that Weston Lettings was born.

Set up in September 2008 Weston Lettings was officially launched in March 2009 with her first let at the popular Gucci estate in Rusper. Im-

pressed with her efficiency and service Sophie then went on to win the contract for the whole of the Gucci estate.Since then business has gone from strength to strength and the Weston family have set-tled well in Warnham where their two daughters now attend the village Primary school and Sophie is the Chair person of the Pre-School and a recognised member of the community.

Weston lettings is indepen-dently owned by sophie and offers a very personal approach to the lettings in-dustry.

Sophie will be your main point of contact throughout your time with Westons. Whether you’re a landlord or tenant she will ensure the quality of service will be nothing but the

best at all times.Sophie stresses “Whilst other estate agents loyalties are divided between house and mortgage sales we are dedi-cated and fully focused on lettings and property man-agement only, giving you that extra level of attention and service”. She continues ““We pride ourselves in offering A personal and friendly service to all, whilst at the same time maintaining a high standard of competence and profes-sionalism”.

So if you are considering letting out your property or looking to rent a prop-erty in the Horsham dis-trict, whether it’s a country estate or town apartment, call Sophie NOW on 01403 242033
