Welcome to this Summer 2023 edition of the Residence magazine
After a rather late Spring this year, many house hunters have at last come out to find their next home, and we are pleased to report plenty have found their way to Wentworth and Virginia Water!
The uplift in activity is very welcome after the post ‘mini-budget’ mayhem, and the continued interest rate rises saw buyers and sellers tread with some caution. A continued trend in the fall of inflation would significantly help borrowers to see more attractive interest rates on offer and further invigorate the market.
Pricing for rental properties has seen a marked increase, driven by demand and inflationary factors. As always, we attract a respectable number of international buyers with plenty in attendance this time of year, for Royal Ascot, Henley, Wimbledon and the numerous other sporting and social events on our doorstep.
We have also seen the spotlight shine positively on our local area, with the Coronation Concert showing the full spectacle of Windsor Castle, and the new Prince and Princess of Wales putting down roots in the area. Please get in touch for all your property needs. We always have a superb range of properties for sale and to rent and often offered ‘off market’.
We wish you all a lovely Summer ahead, and hope you enjoy all that our wonderful area has to offer.

THE OCTAGON GROUP
Arguably one of the luxury housebuilding industry’s most revered and reputable developers, Octagon Developments has an unrivalled reputation for building the highest quality homes in the very best locations across Southern England.
The Surrey-based luxury developer continues to see record demand for their properties; from flagship developments to speculative new-build homes in prime locations, and evermore clients requesting Octagon’s turnkey Bespoke service.
Headquartered on the River Thames just moments from Hampton Court Palace, Octagon has an exceptional track record in the area having built some of the South East’s most impressive properties, in the most sought-after postcodes. Current developments include an exceptional collection of nine apartments in East Molesey at Chapel View, where just one property remains available, alongside opportunities in Virginia Water, including multimillion pound homes on the prestigious Wentworth Estate. Octagon’s current flagship development, Broadoaks Park in West Byfleet, Surrey, has been one of the most successful developments to date. Now with a bustling community living in the parkland estate, extensive restoration work on the site’s
pinnacle Mansion House has begun, splitting the 15,000 sq ft house into two expansive, unique and spacious homes, with current guide prices of around £4m.
Octagon’s speculatively built homes and flagship developments are still very much the cornerstone of the housebuilder’s offering, but they continue to push the boundaries in all sectors of the property market.
With properties in sought-after locations starting from £350,000, their upper mid-market brand, Chancery Homes, benefits from the same Octagon team, skillset, service, and high-quality build.
Following the sale and completion of their first award winning development in Buckinghamshire, Octagon recently acquired two competitive sites across the South East, which will ultimately deliver over 100 homes under the Chancery Homes brand in the next few years, marking a significant commitment by The Octagon Group to the continued growth of the brand. With a vision of extending and diversifying their offering, the team are searching for further development opportunities across Southern England.
Tim Banks, CEO of Octagon Group comments, “Octagon is a brand we treasure that has built an unrivalled reputation within the luxury housebuilding industry – respected for our quality and finish, along with the emphasis we put on our customer and after care service. Owning ‘an Octagon home’ has long been aspirational in our focus areas, and we are thrilled to be able to offer this to the upper-mid market audience.”
The Octagon Group are actively looking for design-led sites for low rise developments, from 10 units through to 100+, throughout Southern England. Octagon Bespoke undertake self-build projects from £2m, with their in-house planning, design and interiors teams working closely with clients to deliver their dream homes.
