High Warren is the educated choice for homebuyers in Surrey
Parents looking for a new home are often led by the desire to ensure their children are well placed to receive the best education and according to research by Savills UK, one of the key catalysts driving housing demand out of London is the desire to buy a larger family home close to a good school. Families looking for a prestigious home that also puts their children within easy reach of some of the best schools, will be interested to hear about Millgate Homes’ High Warren development set within a secluded tree-lined avenue in the sought-after village of Ashtead, Surrey.
The development of just five substantial detached family homes, boasts a classic exterior blended seamlessly with a truly modern interior specification and also have the additional benefit of being close to one of Surrey’s leading schools City of London Freemen’s, an independent co-educational day and boarding school set in a 54 acre site at Ashtead Park. The school received an ‘excellent’ rating from the Independent Schools Inspectorate this year.
Sales and Marketing Director for Millgate, Jonathan Cranley comments: “We know that it’s not enough for some homebuyers to purchase a superb home because of how it looks or the lifestyle it offers. For parents, equally or, even more important, is finding a good home in an area that offers their children the best educational prospects. At High Warren, purchasers can take advantage of not only living in a luxurious, highly specified home in a sought-after location but can rest assured their children will be in the best possible place for their educational needs.”
