Live the village life at Cranleigh in Surrey

Thames Valley Housing has launched Life Cranleigh, a development of eight homes located in Cranleigh, a popular Surrey village close to the historic town of Guildford. These smart new homes are available through Shared Ownership, the part buy; part rent government initiative, which aims to help people purchase their own home. Prices at Life Cranleigh start from £92,000 for a 40% share in a two-bedroom apartment priced at £230,000.

Life Cranleigh is a collection of 6 two-bedroom apartments and 2 two-bedroom houses within walking distance from Cranleigh’s bustling high street. Each home comes with an allocated parking space, access to a secure cycle store and the apartments benefit from shared communal gardens whilst the houses have their own private gardens. The interiors are completed to a high standard and include fully fitted kitchens with an integrated washer dyer, fridge freezer and electric hob and oven. One 2 bed house and four 2 bed apartments remain for sale.

Photo voltaic panels have been fitted across the development generating energy to serve the communal areas for apartments and assist with house electricity bills.

Life Cranleigh is located just a few minutes’ walk from the picturesque high street in Cranleigh’s centre. The high street is well equipped with both household names such as Marks & Spencer and specialist local establishments such as a fishmonger and game dealer. There is also a wide range of interiors shops, boutiques and a weekly market. Four miles away, Godalming offers further recreational facilities such as bars, restaurants and sports clubs, whilst Guildford, considered one of the South-East’s top shopping destinations, boasting shopping centres, cinemas, a theatre and a variety of restaurants, cafes and bars, is only a short drive away.

The standard of education local to Cranleigh ensures the area is popular with young families. The state schools locally are of high calibre with Cranleigh C of E Primary School and the secondary offering, Glebelands Secondary school, all conveniently located for Life Cranleigh.

Located in the commuter belt, Cranleigh is an easy commute to London with regular rail services from Godalming to London Waterloo in just over 45 minutes. Gatwick Airport is just 20 miles away, providing local residents with both great career and travel opportunities. The sea front at Brighton is approximately one hour’s drive.

Kush Rawal, Assistant Director (Sales & Marketing) at Thames Valley Housing comments: “In an area where increasingly affluent families are moving to from London, Life Cranleigh offers an affordable option where it was previously lacking.”

“Life Cranleigh offers an exceptional family experience; the schools in the area are excellent and there are a multitude of recreational opportunities in the area for families to enjoy together. For those who have previously rented, this is an excellent chance to get a family firmly on the property ladder for as little as a £4,600 deposit.”
