City execs find more for their money in Surrey

City execs find more for their money in Surrey Surrey based developer Lusso Homes highlights: city executives are migrating from their London homes in favour of properties at its luxurious ‘Quiet Corner’ development in Shady Hanger Godalming, Surrey, which offers better value for money in terms of living space and specification, and still within an easy commute to the city.

Situated in a tranquil corner of Godalming, but within close proximity to the train station ‘Quiet Corner’ offers a collection of spacious four storey homes which have proved extremely popular with city executives. Ian Blaire from Curchods Estate Agents comments: “Purchasers are increasingly becoming to realise selling up and moving out to the suburbs has many advantages. Here, new homes offer much better value for money in terms of space and specification, and are often within an easy commute of the city. So for those who perhaps once had a large penthouse they can still have the same amount of space and high specification for less money. There is no compromising.”

Neil Jones, Director of Lusso Homes comments: “Our product has been very well received by London executives who have commented on the attention to detail, advanced technology, product design and excellent value of our properties. With our brand, we don’t cut corners we improve our specification so when new technological advances occur our specification is always ‘state of the art’. We involve our interior designers from the very beginning of each development which helps to shape the properties into a real place to come home to.”

Externally the homes at ‘Quiet Corner’ have stunning curb appeal with impressive red and cream brick facades, extensive glazing and stairs leading up to the front door. Each property offers over 2300sqft of living accommodation, providing much more entertaining space than other new townhouses currently on the market.

The layout of each home is designed to offer plenty of flexible living space for families of different sizes, with an open plan kitchen/breakfast/family room plus a separate utility area with cloakroom on the lower ground floor. On the ground floor a spacious dining hall opens through to the living room which features bi-folding glass doors opening onto the terrace. Upstairs to the first floor the master bedroom and second bedroom both have luxurious, light en-suites and fitted wardrobes, whilst the third and fourth bedrooms are located on the top floor, are both double in size and share a family bathroom.

Principal features to the properties include luxury Philip Starck bathrooms with Hansgrohe sanitaryware, impressive contemporary German kitchens with touch sensitive units and integrated Siemens appliances including coffee machine, wine fridge, two single ovens, microwave oven, dishwasher, American style fridge freezer, 5 ring gas home with wok burner and Elica extractor hood. Category 5E wiring provides cabling for HDTV, home entertainment systems, moodlighting and intruder alarms.

The gardens are just as impressive with landscaped terraces leading from the living areas, providing plenty of space for garden furniture and al fresco dining. From the terrace, stairs lead up to a second part of the garden, perfect to watch the sunset over the breathtaking views whilst enjoying a glass of wine.

Godalming is a quintessential British country town surrounded by open countryside, views of which can be captured from the windows at ‘Quiet Corner’. Families at the development are well catered for with excellent leisure facilities nearby, a swimming pool and tennis courts at Broadwater Park plus a wide range of good primary schools including the well regarded Charterhouse which is just down the road. For commuters, London is within easy reach (47 minutes to Waterloo by rail) plus the A3 is providing convenient links to the rest of the motorway network.

The town itself offers a collection of boutique shops, high street stores as well as cafes, bars and restaurants including the renowned Bel and the Dragon and La Luna, quoted in the ‘Good Food Guide’. Meanwhile those who enjoy picking their own produce Secretts Farm Shop is one of the top 50 in the country and offers a wide range of traditional salad and wet fish.

There is currently just one home remaining at ‘Quiet Corner’ which is priced from £795,000 including furniture fixtures and fittings. For further information, visit lussohomes.co.uk.
