4 on the market

Reform is cash boon for buyers Reforms to Stamp Duty will boost the property market in the South West at all levels, according to Richard Addington of Savills Exeter The substantial reform of stamp duty announced in this month’s autumn Statement will mean savings for around 99.5% home buyers across Devon and Cornwall according to research from Savills (source HM Land Registry) as all residential buyers up to £937,000 will benefit. All sales below £125,000 (approximately 14% of all transactions in 2014) will remain exempt from stamp duty. Only around 0.5% of transactions in the two counties above a value of £937,000 will bear an increased stamp duty tax burden, undermining the case for any further taxation of high value property such as a “mansion tax”. The average duty paid on the sale of a property worth between £125,001 and £250,000 will fall by £650. For a property between £250,001 and £500,000 the average duty will fall by around £3,100. Most in Devon and Cornwall will benefit from the changes, whilst the increased charge at the top end of the market means London and the South East will bear an increased proportion of the tax.

Savills estimates that London and the South East will now contribute around 75% of all stamp duty receipts from England and Wales, with property worth over £1m in London alone contributing 38% of all projected receipts. While it is too early to report much direct market evidence of the effects that these changes have made to the market in the Westcountry, there is plenty on anecdotal evidence that buyer confidence has been boosted by the significant savings that will be made on typically priced property in the two counties. It also means that the significance of the cliff edge figures of £250,000 and £500,000 will be removed thus making it possible for sellers of properties worth which are £250,000 “and a bit” and £500,000 “and a bit” to actually achieve that bit extra. Above the £937,000 threshold, where the new rates throw up higher rates of duty we saw frantic activity in the period immediately following the Chancellor’s announcement. Savills alone saw 100 properties nationally exchange contracts (predominantly in London and the Home

Counties areas) before the midnight deadline. Going forward, we anticipate that there will be an initial lull in both activity and confidence as the higher rates are digested by potential buyers. But looking forward it will prove a positive influence on the market as it removes the very significant cliff edges that were barriers to prices at the £1,000,000 (rate used to increase from 4% to 5%) and particularly £2,000,000 thresholds (rate used to increase from 5% to 7%). What will also be brought into very sharp focus will be which properties are purely residential and subject to the new higher rates and which properties are “mixed use” and remain subject to a top rate of 4% above £1,000,000. It is incumbent on buyers to take the best possible advice on what their

tax liability might be; the purchase of a Westcountry farmhouse and 25 acres for £1.25m would be liable for £18,750 additional tax if assessed as residential compared with “mixed

use.” The difference for a manor house and 50 acres at £2,500,000 is even more striking at £113,750!

Major new property website all set to help buyers and sellers

Ian Springett, chief executive of new website OnTheMarket.com

A major new property website called OnTheMarket.com, which will compete head-on with Rightmove and Zoopla, will go live on Monday. The website is a mutual organisation focussed purely on providing an outstanding service for estate and letting agents, vendors, landlords and property seekers alike. The property search on OnTheMarket.com will be slick, simple, fast and state-of-the-art, compatible with the latest technologies. The website will adapt to fit the screen of any device being used to view it. There will be no distracting third party adverts, nor any spam email. Developers promise there will be no “misleading valuations based purely on historical statistics as, when it comes to accurate valuations,

there is no substitute for an estate or letting agent’s detailed knowledge of a property, the local area, the current market conditions and the vendor’s or landlord’s circumstances”. The website will feature hundreds of thousands of properties to buy or rent at all price points, right across the UK. OnTheMarket.com has the support of more than 4,000 offices comprised of large, medium and small sized firms. Of the members, 80% have three or fewer offices. It is expected many more agents will join. Every property available at OnTheMarket.com will be handled by locally visible, office-based estate and letting agents with expertise on the ground. Ian Springett, chief executive of OnTheMarket.com, said: “We and

our members are delighted that OnTheMarket.com will go live on schedule in January. It will add muchneeded competition in a market which has been dominated for too long by two large groups. “OnTheMarket.com will become a ‘must view’ website where propertyseekers can easily find the right properties and be connected directly to the agents marketing them. “We will have a unique inventory of properties, many of which will have been effectively removed from the current large property sites.” The initial six members of OnTheMarket.com, owned by Agents’ Mutual, were Savills, Knight Frank, Strutt & Parker, Chestertons, Douglas & Gordon and Glentree Estates. They have been joined by many large, medium and small firms.

So much to enjoy in the far West Propelled by an uplifted economy and consumer confidence, the market for properties in West Cornwall has continued to strengthen during 2014. Purchasers, particularly those relocating to the county, are attracted to this wonderfully unspoilt area which boasts miles of beautiful coastline, sandy beaches and countryside, much of which is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Other notable attractions are the wealth of historic fishing villages, the Minack Theatre, the Chysauster Monument, St Michael’s Mount, Land’s End and the stunning scenery of Cape Cornwall. I always greatly enjoy leaving the office to appraise a property in West Cornwall, as I am fully confident of the purchasing demand – often fuelled from out of the county – for a wide variety of properties across the whole of the region. Buyers are attracted by this beautiful part of the world, enthused by its Celtic history and striking country and coastal

There are no weak spots in West Cornwall’s flourishing property market, says Ian Osbornel of Stags Truro office scenery, much of which is world renowned. There are no weak spots in the property market for West Cornwall. Some of Stags successful sales across this region during the course of 2014 include: Trezelah Farmhouse, an attached four-bedroom period property in the hamlet of Trezelah, which sold quickly off a guide price of £325,000; Botrea Bungalow, a spacious five-bedroom country property with gardens, stables and just under nine acres of pastureland in the heart of the Penwith Peninsula, which sold off a guide price of £400,000; and Michaelmas Cottage on the slopes of Trencom Hill close to St Ives, which was sold to Home County purchasers off a guide price of £425,000. Currently the selection of properties for sale includes the delightful cottage complex of Penberthy Farm Cottages (pictured below left), nestling in glorious countryside that is accessible to both coasts. Comprising an attractive main cottage and three converted barns, the property is offered off a guide price of £830,000 and is primed to take full advantage of the tourism industry. For those who are seeking a property with potential, Carwyn House near Hayle (pictured top left) offers comfortable accommodation and is

set amid delightful grounds of around 1.8 acres. Commanding views to the North Coast, Carwyn House is offered off a guide price of £535,000. Closer still to the three mile stretch of sand at Hayle is Sanderling House which offers spacious five bedroom accommodation and views over Copperhouse Pool with a guide price of £450,000. The market in West Cornwall is likely to continue in the same vein into 2015, with demand expected to exceed supply. I would encourage anyone considering a sale in 2015 not to dismiss the months of January and February, which in recent years have been two of our best selling months of the year, a trend that may well be further compounded in 2015 by the upcoming general election. Stags Truro office, is keen to invite sellers to contact them for more information with regard to their marketing service and understand why it is essential to have exposure to London and South East buyers. During 2015, Stags will also be expanding its local coverage with increased advertising. Ian Osborne, associate partner based in Stags’ Truro office, and all of the marketing team at Stags Truro office can be contacted on 01872 264488 or truro@stags.co.uk.

Hot property in West capital city Demand remains strong in central Cornwall. The area between Truro and Falmouth remains the most popular stretch where people want to search for a home. The proximity to the retail and business area of Truro and the waterfront town of Falmouth, as well as the sailing waters of the Fal Estuary, offer an ideal and desirable lifestyle for many. Interestingly, as more buyers make a permanent move to the county, the demand for properties with land and large gardens begins to out-strip the interest in waterfront properties. There is a generous uplift in value for those properties with water views, driven by demand. However some buyers, particularly those with children, would rather spend that premium on outdoor space, or properties which better suit a permanent life in Cornwall. This might be a complete contrast to what they are used to, or just a larger property in Cornwall. Many viewers looking for a permanent home, search for a room/ space in order to turn into a home office for working with less commuting. Truro is well connected with the main London Paddington connection by rail and the easy access to the A30 which connects to the M5. Alternatively Newquay airport is only a 40-minute drive. The fantastic range of schooling in Truro attracts many families for this reason, whether it be walking distance or close by villages. There is a beautiful range of architecture in Truro with riverside Regency cottages, splendid Georgian houses, city centre town houses and some gorgeous frilly Victorian semis and villas. But for those wanting the lifestyle change with the larger gardens and a

A great lifestyle is drawing buyers to Cornwall’s city, says Jenna Chauhan of Humberts Truro paddock or two for a pony, the nearby villages have become as popular if not more so. The most asked-for property in our office is a charming period home, close by to Truro, set within about six to 10 acres and the most interesting aspect they look for is a community spirt within the village.

‘Nearby villages offer big gardens or a pony paddock’ Cornwall offers so much from the local regattas to the farmers markets, to the concerts at the Eden Project and to the fabulous coastlines and so much more. From September 2013, we have seen a huge increase in the housing market activity in our office. This increase followed about six months after the London market picked up

and we were kept busy even through the festive period and this continued without a break into the new year right through to the summer of this year. We noticed that activity fell during the summer holidays, but this is most likely to do with the schools’ holiday policy, which meant that families didn't wish to compromise the time valuable time they had to spend with their children. Once the holidays were over, the weather continued to be splendid, and this encouraged more serious buyers to property hunt and once again we were busy and continue to be so. We have roughly done the same amount of sales in 2014 as we did in 2013. That said, the 2014 the buyer was more concentrated on the purchase, whereas the 2013 buyer was very unsteady, resulting in a lot more collapsed sales. We are going into 2015 with a strong pipeline, which we hope is a sign of good things to come. With the elections in 2015 we are strongly advising those interested sellers to put their houses on the market prior to May in order to achieve the best possible price.

Promising year ahead for Plymouth In adopting the title “Britain’s Ocean City”, Plymouth has created an image that should drive those planning to move to the Westcountry to focus their attention here. This image is well deserved, and the city is shaking off its somewhat grey industrial past which revolved around its dockyard. An aerial view of Plymouth is captivating. It is not just its extraordinary geography and topography that makes the city so special. Its history is absorbing, largely due to its geographical location. The heart is certainly the waterfront, with the historic Hoe and Elizabethan Barbican, but it is by no means stuck in the past. The largest city west of Bristol, Plymouth is also the largest operational naval base in Western Europe. It includes the UK’s 9th largest university, and it hosts major international yachting events, including the 2011 America’s Cup round. Recently, events such as the British Fireworks Championships, the Barbican International Jazz and Blues Festival, the Seafood and Flavour Fest have drawn visitors from all over the UK. Plymouth’s international reputation grows steadily and, as we progress towards 2020, the 400th anniversary of the Pilgrim Fathers’ embarkation from the Mayflower Steps to America will gain international publicity. The property stock within the city

and outside offers far more variety than some expect. It has never been a particularly wealthy city and there is, therefore, a shortage of classic country properties within its commuting radius. However, it is always an enormous pleasure to be able to reveal the wonderful selection of properties available, at still modest prices, to those planning to move to the area. As examples, this year an apartment in the Grade II* Listed Elliot Terrace, with slightly limited views over the Sound, sold off a guide price of just under £200,000. A Victorian terraced house in Hermitage Road, Mannamead, sold off a guide price of just under £300,000, and the intriguingly named Reedley Hallows, within a “green oasis” in the Derriford area, sold off a guide price of £465,000. Outside the city, Mill Manor, a riverbank house with 2.6 acres on the

edge of Dartmoor near Yelverton, sold off a guide price of £575,000. Seascape, a coastal house with wonderful views (but in need of updating) in the little known village of Heybrook Bay, sold off a guide price of £499,950. Going west, Plymouth is effectively a gateway to Cornwall. The coastline continues to draw buyers. Once introduced to the area its accessibility, remarkably unspoilt scenery, relative lack of tourist congestion and modest property values more and more purchasers are hooked. In 2014 Memorial Cottage in St Germans sold off a price guide of £350,000. With confidence rising and the city thriving, 2015 is sure to be an even better year to sell in Plymouth and its commuting area – from all that I am currently experiencing I would describe the forthcoming year as “promising”.

How things can change in such a relatively short space of time. Just a few short months ago, The East Devon property market looked to be very much following national trends, with a decline in both supply of property for sale and in buyer demand. There had been clear indication from The Bank of England that interest rate rises were closer than people had thought, and post referendum electioneering was already beginning to influence people’s decision about buying or selling. A few months on and interest rate rises appear to be off the agenda. Stamp Duty changes have added impetus to the market. While we will no doubt have to endure several months of party politics, posturing and maybe a little scaremongering, it is against a backdrop of stable house prices and increasing buyer demand from both local and outof-the-area buyers. Those relocating are showing a noteable appetite for East Devon. Those who live here know just what the attractions are. The dramatic Jurassic coastline, rolling countryside, leisure activities, ease of commuting

East Devon, with its wealth of attractions, is ever evolving, says Roger Wilkinson of Wilkinson Grant & Co

‘The £2 billion Growth Programme is already taking shape to Exeter, and excellent transport links all add up to make this perhaps the most popular district in the county. The £2 billion Exeter and East Devon Growth Programme is already taking shape, with the Exeter Science Park and Sky Park Business Park attracting both start-ups and major corporations. All the non-residential buildings in the growth point are designed to be eye-catching and locally distinctive buildings. Cranbrook Village is fast becoming established as a community focussed small town – as opposed to simply a large housing estate – and looks set to become a sought-after address for young families, already living in or moving to the area. The traditional resorts of Exmouth, Budleigh and Sidmouth are all beginning to benefit from the “bigger picture”, with property prices having recovered to pre-recession levels and some of the best addresses marching on apace to reflect the growing appeal of this wonderful part of Devon.

Several recent new developments in Exmouth and along the East Devon coast have achieved record prices, and demand from top-end, mainstream and retirement developers for land looks set to continue to grow.

With relaxation in planning restrictions, we are seeing an increase in both smaller individual development opportunities and bespoke new-builds or farm building conversions, in the East Devon ‘triangle’.

Parents’ snakes and ladders tips The average age of a first-time property buyer in the South West has increased to 41, and more and more people are relying on ‘the Bank of Mum and Dad’ to help them purchase their first property. According to HSBC, of the firsttime buyers who bought in 2012, 64% received financial help from their parents. With the forthcoming changes to the pension rules, which may allow parents and grandparents greater access to their pension pots, this is a figure that may only increase. For parents or grandparents who wish to help the next generation on to the property ladder may have to think creatively. Gift The simplest option is to simply make an outright monetary gift to the buyer. This can assist in inheritance tax planning, and may enable the buyer to obtain a mortgage at a better rate as it will increase their deposit. The difficulty with this option is a lack of control. Is the buyer financially responsible? Is the buyer making the purchase with a friend or partner you may not approve of ? Loan

This character cottage at 7 Bedford Street has charming features and a long, level rear garden. Inside are a sitting room, dining room, kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom. Agents: Mansbridge Balment, Bere Alston, 01822 840 606, www.mansbridgebalment.co.uk

Some family members may prefer to lend to the buyer. A buyer will be obliged to declare the source of their funds to their solicitor, and the mortgage company which may impact on the mortgage rate they are offered. The advantage of a loan is that the money is due back to the lender at a later date. There is also the opportunity for the lender to protect their interest with an appropriate restriction on the land registry title. Equally, the loan can be converted

Helping your children on to the property ladder? Frank Cook, a partner at Stones Solicitors, outlines the various methods to a gift at a later stage if the buyer is deemed to be responsible. Again, a degree of caution is required, as even if the interest is secured on the property, the mortgage company will insist that their loan will take priority. So, if the owner defaults on their mortgage, the mortgage company will recover their loan and costs before any private lender. Conversion of the loan to a gift has to be done by deed in order for the clock to start counting for inheritance tax purposes. It is worth thinking about how the loan is reflected: is it expressed as a fixed sum? Is interest to be charged? Is it to be a percentage of the property? The nature of how property is held will have an impact on taxes such as capital gains tax. It is essential that any agreement is accurately recorded in a declaration of trust to avoid any future misunderstandings. Joint mortgage or guarantor An option if funds for a deposit are not available, is for a family member to be party to a loan to guarantee that the mortgage is paid. Alternatively, one may agree to be listed as a co-owner and also be on the mortgage too.

Some lenders are increasingly offering specialist mortgages which allow a parent to have their name removed after a fixed period. As ever, each party to such a transaction should obtain their own independent legal and financial advice to ensure they are entering into any agreement with their eyes wide open. Such agreements are not to be taken lightly. If the child or grandchild divorces or runs into financial difficulty and cannot pay the mortgage the mortgage company can turn to the guarantor or co-mortgagee for the outstanding payments and in the worst case, the entire outstanding balance. In turn, the financial security and credit rating of the lender could be adversely affected. In a recent report by the Halifax, 30% of parents were concerned that the support they had provided may affect their own financial future. It is only natural that parents and other family members should want to help the younger generation as much as they can, including getting them on the property ladder. The key is to find the method that suits you all best, and to employ the best professional advice you can to ensure you do not fall into any hidden traps.

Much moor fun in Chagford It is at this time of the year estate agents look forward to the springtime and formulate their predictions about how the market in their particular location will perform in the months ahead. The North Dartmoor market last year started bright and full of promise with a buzz around the London and south-east market, a mini bubble that would send ripples out to the regions. Experts predicted that cash-rich London buyers would improve the values of everyone’s homes. The reality was the ripple was more of a raspberry, and the underlying value of homes in the South West stayed pretty much stable throughout 2014. Certainly, asking prices have gone up, but this often is out of optimism rather than an indication of true market value. Towards the end of the year any sellers or agents who did not recognise the need to be in line with market conditions are still offering their homes for sale now. Chagford has traditionally been a premium location sought after for the self-contained nature of the town, with a range of amenities for day to day living which means, if you don’t want to, there is no need to jump in the car and travel. Properties within walking distance of the town square are the most requested. Buyers of such homes are more often downsizers seeking ease of living and convenience, coupled with a picturesque town location and beautiful moorland surroundings. Prices within the town are above average. However, when selling it is vital not to overstate the premium as overvalued homes will sit on the market, which ultimately is detrimental to the eventual sale price. Outside of the town in the beautiful Dartmoor surroundings, the buyers are seeking privacy, some land or a large garden for amenity and perhaps keeping horses or livestock. There is often a good choice of style of home either in one of the pretty villages or in a more rural location. A good example of a traditional

The 18th century cottage has two bedrooms and an attached stone outbuilding. The property requires some updating, but has great potential. Along with the cottage there are approximately seven acres of land which were offered as separate lots. A buyer has been found for the whole which was offered for sale at £450,000. For those looking to downsize into Chagford town, Rendells are offering a

The apartment, known as ‘Belstone’ is finished with contemporary fittings, has two double bedrooms, two shower rooms, and rural views. The price guide is £245,000. For those who commute, the A30 dual carriage is approximately six miles north, and Exeter is about half an hour’s drive.

SATURDAY JANUARY 24 2015

Jewel in South Hams’ crown Antony Stumbles, of Luscombe Maye, assesses the popularity of the South Hams and Kingsbridge Kingsbridge has long been considered the jewel in the crown of the South Hams. Situated within the South Devon Area of Natural Beauty at the head of the estuary, the former market town is an idyllic setting for waterside living. With its striking coastline flowing along the South Devon coast, rugged headlands offering a unique and dramatic backdrop and easy access to beautiful sheltered sandy beaches, it’s little wonder that Kingsbridge attracts an array of families and couples looking to relocate or buy a second home. In addition to its remarkable surroundings, the town is host to an array of cultural delights: from galleries and music venues, to summer festivals and museums, and plenty more besides. The Kingsbridge Town Trail is a must for those wanting to explore the town’s fascinating architectural heritage. There is also an excellent range of independent shops and boutiques on the High Street, and recreational facilities including a modern sports centre with indoor swimming pool and a challenging 18-hole link golf course at nearby Bigbury and Thurlestone, both offering sensational views of the coast. The renowned estuary provides excellent sailing opportunities for those seeking further adventure. Paddle boarders are a regular feature on its sheltered waters, and the waterside is definitely the setting for spectators to soak in the stunning views and enjoy a drink outside the delightful Crabshell Inn. With activities and stunning surroundings aplenty, Kingsbridge also provides excellent primary education at its village schools and at the

highly regarded secondary school, Kingsbridge Community College. And for those needing access to London and the rest of the UK, there is a mainline railway station at Totnes just 14 miles away – which has a regular service to London. We sold a range of properties in

The estuary provides excellent sailing opportunities Kingsbridge in 2014, including a quaint Coastguard Cottage at East Prawle, which was a second home for London buyers and sold for £425,000. We also sold a charming period cottage near South Pool to buyers

from Worcestershire for £399,500, and a detached three bedroom bungalow at Strete, with superb coastal and sea views and in need of refurbishment and modernising. This property sold for £550,000 to an overseas buyer. Other sales included listed thatched cottages, barn conversions and detached modern and period houses across the South Hams. The Kingsbridge office had a reassuring number of completions throughout 2014, and this was mirrored across the six other offices. This level of sales was achieved through realistic asking prices and is expected to continue throughout 2015. Luscombe Maye, which has offices in Kingsbridge, Modbury, Newton Ferrers, South Brent, Totnes and Yealmpton, is instructed to sell a varying selection of properties, ranging from country homes, waterside, newly-built homes and commercial within the areas covered by their offices, each promising to excite and exceed the expectations of those seeking a permanent home or a second property, in what can only be described as an unrivalled part of the region.

Impressive Harewood with its landscaped parkland

Appeal of historical homes Owning a historical house is a pleasure, especially when the previous owners have put all the hard work into modernising them. There’s something wonderful about the sense of continuity and connection with times past. Abode covers a wide and varied patch which includes West Devon, Dartmoor, East and North Cornwall. Each area has its own appeal and character properties for buyers searching for their own slice of the Westcountry. In the sought-after and rugged landscape of the Dartmoor National Park is the sumptuous Harewood House, an impressive country house set in more than three acres of landscaped parkland in the picturesque village of Peter Tavy. The property was built in 1928 for two sisters whose father owned a large farm in the area, and the property has been much improved and extended over the years. Internal features include a generous drawing room with an additional raised area providing the ideal entertaining space. There is also a spacious and stylish dining room which has a pleasant vista over the property’s grounds which include a lake. The property offers buyers a real lifestyle opportunity with a great feeling of country living, yet is only a short walk from the popular local country pub, and is on the market for £1.15 million. Heath Lodge is in the Tamar Valley, an area famous for its lovely views. This unique lodge house enjoys an uninterrupted outlook over the surrounding countryside. The property itself dates from the Victorian era and displays many architectural details typical of its era, including fireplaces, picture rails and slate floors. The Victorian era also saw a 'Gothic revival' in architecture, which is evidenced here in the lovely arched windows. This property has a real sense of seclusion, and is surrounded by more than an acre of ground including

If you’re looking for your very own slice of England, Martin Deacon of Abode has got some historic gems from across the centuries lawned gardens and a wooden boundary. Internally, the property has four bedrooms and two separate reception rooms, and has been run as a successful bed and breakfast. Heath Lodge is on the market with us for a guide price of £475,000. A new instruction this January is a stylish converted former coach house in the heart of Tavistock. This has good access to amenities, shops and schools, yet with a rural feel due to its generous garden and tree-lined boundary. The property itself is a converted coach house, formerly attached to a local manor. Though modernised it retains much of its original architectural detail, including a rustic stone finish, granite pillars and arched window openings. The external woodwork is painted in country sage. Internally, it is very well presented and combines character with modern decor, with stylish kitchens and bathrooms. The Coach House is on the market for £635,000. Two properties which have been sale-agreed in January again emphasise the diverse range of historic properties for sale in our area. Rectory Cottage is a unique wing of a rectory set in Lezant, built during the Regency era. It has large Georgian windows, flagstone slate floors and a servants’ staircase, evoking thoughts of the 'upstairs, downstairs' nature of days gone by.

Woodtown Farm in Whitchurch near Tavistock is another unique property with six acres which has attracted interest and a buyer already this year. The property is reputed to date back to the Jacobean era and has been lovingly restored by the current owner. If you are thinking of buying or selling a property in our area this new year, please give us a call on 01822 618833 or email martin@abodewestcountry.co.uk and we would delighted to help.

Thriving after the roller-coaster ride Although the year began badly for Somerset, with dips in January and April, its fortunes have now improved and property in all price ranges is in demand. The gloom of early January, with dramatic photographs and reporting of the extensive flooding on the Somerset levels and the storm-battered coastline, has vanished from the horizon. And for some time images and the public’s perception that all of Somerset must be under water, blighted many people’s aspirations of buying property anywhere in the county, if not the whole of the South West. By March this was generally forgotten, although there was some concern in the east of the county, and optimism was restored fuelled by the massive surge in property sales in London and the Home Counties. The knock-on effect for Somerset was an influx of eager buyers in proceedable positions and with money to spend. Demand for property across all price brackets was high and competition lead to strong sale prices being achieved. The introduction by the banks and the building societies of tighter lending criteria at the end of April meant that funding for house purchases became harder to obtain. The South East market faltered and transactions fell apart, which by June had stifled much of the interest in the local Somerset area. Sales returned to the pre-boom level for the summer, then experienced another seasonal rise in the autumn months. Stags Dulverton and Taunton offices, which cover Exmoor, the North Somerset coastline and the central bulk of Somerset, have had a very successful year despite the peaks and troughs, with sales up 30% on 2013. The majority of the sales have been

The fortunes of Somerset’s property market in 2014 have been something of a roller coaster ride, says Simon Zeal of Stags, Dulverton office

from the town and village houses ranging in value from £250,000 up to £500,000, with further successes throughout the year in the £650,000 bracket. However, the market for the high value properties, up to £1 million, and above has remained slight with fewer enquiries. An interesting trend has seen enquiries from affluent areas, such as Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire, looking for properties in the Exmoor area of Somerset that has tighter planning and development controls. The current pressure on councils to provide an increased supply of housing, both open market and social schemes, has seen vast swathes of farmland sucked into development, even in the wealthier counties. Owners who once lived with coun-

tryside surroundings become enveloped by housing, giving rise to demand in Somerset, in particular Exmoor, where future chance of change is both restricted and protected. Stags are members of Business Exmoor which is a new organisation that has been established to promote and support entrepreneurial young businesses wishing to develop within the Exmoor National Park. The aim is to assist in the provision of a suitable environment in which a modern business can thrive in this remote part of Somerset. For instance, working from home can only exist if internet speeds are good and mobile communications exist. Business Exmoor creates a combined voice with which to lobby the providers. Stags have sold several properties this year to couples relocating to Somerset and wishing to run their businesses from home. This is bound to be a growth market for the future. Despite the uncertainties of a looming General Election, Stags are looking forward to a busy spring. We are confident that well-presented and realistically priced properties will continue to sell successfully throughout 2015.

SATURDAY JANUARY 24 2015

The Newton Ferrers office of Marchand Petit reports that it has successfully negotiated multiple sales during 2014 within a very positive market place, across all sectors of the property market, and with a significant number of purchasers looking to buy in the village and surrounding areas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are delighted with some outstanding sales in the villages of Newton Ferrers and Noss Mayo,â&#x20AC;? says director Prunella Martin. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This success during 2014 adds to the year on year growth seen since the department was established in 2011, which now accounts for 65% of all sales agreed on properties over ÂŁ750,000 in the South Hams. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In fact, last year sales on 63 properties in the South Hams area over ÂŁ750,000 were agreed, the majority over ÂŁ1,000,000.â&#x20AC;? Prunella emphasises how important it is to introduce these sometimes unknown villages to out of area buyers, particularly those looking for properties with direct water access or fantastic views. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Newton Ferrers and Noss Mayo provide direct water access to some of the most stunning coastline in the

South Hams, and are a safe haven for the cruising yachtsman seeking a hearty meal at any of the three pubic houses and a warm welcome from the local yacht club,â&#x20AC;? she said. Two recent successful sales were Virginia Cottage and Apple Trees. Virginia Cottage, a beautifully renovated, three-bedroom stone property with direct water access and parking, sold close to its guide price of ÂŁ1,200,000. Also in Newton Ferrers and with its own quay is Apple Trees, a fun project for the new owners and sold for more than a ÂŁ1million. A third sale was 1 Old Coastguardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cottages, a Grade II listed cottage with fabulous views over the deep water pool of the river. It can only be accessed from either the coastal footpath or directly from the estuary. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For buyers seeking peace and quiet, the opportunity to buy this type of property rarely comes about,â&#x20AC;? says Prunella. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The property, which was offered at a guide price of ÂŁ500,000, exchanged contracts between Christmas and the New Year, much to the delight of the new owners.â&#x20AC;?

1 Old Coastguardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cottages

Demand for property in prime waterfront locations is so strong that clients are buying and selling properties along the South Hams coast, from Torquay to Plymouth. Prunella says: â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is interesting to note that 68% of Marchand Petitâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s buyers during 2014 came from London and the Home Counties, nearly double that of the previous year.â&#x20AC;? Stuart Cartwright of the Marchand Petit Newton Ferrers office says: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am very positive when I look forward to the year ahead. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are expecting strong demand for property within the village and surrounding areas and look forward to achieving gratifying results for our clientsâ&#x20AC;?.

76 holiday homes Homes with holiday letting potential selected by Gaby Wakley of Helpful Holidays Valley View, Porthallow, Cornwall, £399,950

Investment – for Miles Kevin of Chartsedge explains why the second-home market is stronger and more positive than ever in 2015 Most agents at the beginning of 2014 were looking forward to a good year at last. The conversations I had at the end of the year however seem to show that nearly all of them have had a similar year to 2013, selling around the same number of properties with only slight price increases. New pension rules

This handsome four-bedroom house, 100 yards above the pebble beach at Porthallow, is beautifully presented. Estimated income: £17,000 to £19,000 over a 30-week season. Agents: Lillicrap Chilcott, Truro, 01872 273473, www.lillicrapchilcott.com

Lower Wooda Barn, Warleggan, Cornwall, £339,950

This three-bedroom barn conversion in an idyllic setting has expansive countryside views and a quality interior. Estimated income: £13,500 to £15,000 over a 30-week season. Agents: Lillicrap Chilcott, Truro, 01872 273473, www.lillicrapchilcott.com

The Almshouse, Winkleigh, Devon, £219,750

A big boost for the holiday home market in 2015 will be the relaxing of the pension rules with regard to annuities, and as a result we know we will see an increased demand from the retiree market. We have already seen a significant number of applicants registering with us looking to utilise these assets for a second home. These people will primarily be looking for a return on their investment but will also want to use their holiday home for themselves and their families. As the average age of buyers for second homes is around 50 plus, this will inevitably increase the demand for second homes that produce some sort of an income. Some of our developer clients have already thought about this, and will be providing a finance scheme which pays back a top-up loan over a short period that would be covered by a guaranteed rent. This enables buyers to take money out of their pension, which will be the deposit, and if they need a top-up that’s when the developer steps in. This means that they can earn an income while enjoying the use of the property. Lodge developers Charteroak Estates are one of these forwardthinking developers, who will be launching their exciting new package in the New Year. Demand In the last quarter of 2014 we have already seen an increase in serious cash buyers registering with us and looking for their ideal home for next year. We always see an increase in

Trendy Newquay flats

Picture-perfect, this two-bedroom, Grade II listed cottage has lovely views towards Dartmoor in the distance. Estimated income: £8,500 to £10,500 over a 30-week season. Agents: Stags, Okehampton, 01837 659420, www.stags.co.uk The estimated income figures above are net of VAT and agency fees, but not running costs.

second home buyers registering in January (over 200 in 2013), and we know we will have a really solid database of buyers going into the new year. Prices With the uncertainty of the general economy and the slowing of the London market, we feel that the flight to bricks and mortar for long term investment will continue in 2015. There is an array of predictions about the general market for next year from all the usual suspects, which makes confusing reading. These range from a falling market to an increase of 6%. In the holiday home sector in the South West we predict that prices will see a small increase of about 2.5% next year across the whole of the region, with the more popular addresses like Rock, Padstow, and Salcombe seeing stronger growth of about 5%. Other areas to watch out for are Newquay and the south coast of Cornwall. Even though all the agents we talked to thought that a lot of Londoners would ‘cash in’ in 2014 and start buying second homes in the South West, we found that there was no significant rise in sales from this sector. We suspect that the London homeowners felt they were making too much money on paper to release funds to purchase another property. As the London market is slowing, many more lifestyle buyers from London and the South East will appear in 2015. Holiday lettings With the vast majority of holiday home buyers wanting their second home to earn an income to offset running costs, the success of the holiday letting market is very important. From talking to a number of holiday letting agents in the South West, we have deduced that demand has been in rude health in 2014 and forward bookings for 2015 are up

20% compared to December 2013. This means holiday home owners can be assured of a good rental income for next season. The agencies that are dealing with quality 4* and 5 * properties, like Helpful Holidays and Beach Retreats, are seeing the best demand.One of our buyers who was asked what he was looking for said: “A holiday home for ourselves and an investment for our children”. The benefits of second homes Surprise, surprise: second homes in the Westcountry have had adverse press recently, with many local politicians jumping on the bandwagon. There is talk of banning second home buyers from purchasing new homes in certain areas such as St Ives, and increasing Council Tax payments for second home owners. By contrast, Una St Ives, a luxury ‘holiday home only’ resort at Carbis Bay, has a planning restriction enforced by the local Cornwall Council which allows second home owners to buy properties without affecting the local property supply. Hardly any of the articles mentioned how much money selfcatering holiday lets (i.e. second homes) bring into the local economy. A report published last month by the London School of Economics, which has not been much quoted in the national press, has put the annual value of the UK’s holiday rental industry at £4.35bn a year, creating more than 95,000 jobs nationwide. The report, which was produced in conjunction with a company called HomeAway.Inc, says that the self-catering holiday rental industry contributes some £100m in tax and

Ask the experts Your holiday let questions answered Q. My holiday cottage is looking tired after a busy 2014. Do you have any spring cleaning pointers please? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; BH, Dunster A. Bev Plunkett, property manager for Helpful Holidays, says:

Start Point in the South Hams, above, and Close, St Ives, below right, are ideally positioned holiday homes. Seven-bedroom Soldon Manor, below left, is being sold by Chartsedge to a Battersea couple upsizing from a three-bedroom house

it also generates a gross income for property owners of ÂŁ950m. Kath Scanlon of LSE says: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most holiday rental owners support other local businesses. Our survey found that over 90% of rental hosts across the country highlight local community offerings when asked for recommendations by their guests. Support is also in the form of employment, with over three quarters of owners employing staff to assist with property maintenance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nationally, owners spend an average of about ÂŁ1,600 per year per property on local employees.â&#x20AC;?

New trends We have noticed a trend for potential buyers looking for a second home which they will eventually retire to. This is a real case of forward planning by these buyers. They release the money from their own homes for the purchase, intending to pay this off with holiday let income by the time they retire. They are therefore utilising their main home sale to fund their retirement which becomes very tax effective both for themselves and eventually their children.

However, we at Chartsedge do agree that a holiday home owner that does not â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;holiday letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; their property and only uses it a few weeks a year is not contributing as much to the local economy, and should therefore help by paying an increased Council Tax. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s face it: the people who can afford to have a second home, and do not need to let it out, can afford the extra cost.

After a busy season and winter weather this is the perfect time to thoroughly clean your holiday home, which will ensure the safety of your guests and allow you to tackle any outstanding problems. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sensible to concentrate on each room individually. In the kitchen clean the cooker and surroundings thoroughly, descale kettles and coffee makers and defrost the fridge and freezer, checking the seals. Check the worktops for damage and whiten grouting. Replace chipped crockery and throw out tired tea towels, worn utensils and blunt knives. Beware of evidence of damp and steam clean carpets, curtains and tiles. Check the living room furniture for scratches and make sure all appliances such as TVs are functioning properly. If the batteries in smoke and carbon monoxide detectors havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been renewed for a while this could be a good opportunity. Refresh information folders, replacing out of date leaflets. Drain cleaner will ensure bathroom and kitchen drains are clear and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hesitate to replace towels if they are looking tired or faded. In the bedrooms check mattresses are clean and turn them and replace linen which is worn. Outside, make sure fences are secure, clear drains and check pipes arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t leaking.

Q. I've heard hot tubs are popular in holiday lets. How can I minimise potential dangers if I install one? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; MJ, Helston A. Melanie Cassidy, property manager for Helpful Holidays, says: An effective system of management and disinfection is required to ensure your hot tub remains safe for use by guests and to help avoid risk of contamination, particularly by the potentially fatal bacterium, Legionella pneumophila (Legionella). A two-part guidance document â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Management of Spa Pools â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Controlling the Risk of Infectionsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;

offers comprehensive guidelines and is downloadable at www.gov.uk. In short, key recommendations are that you carry out a risk assessment of general hot tub safety (slip and trip hazards as well as microbiological hazards and safe and correct storage of chemicals); identify a competent and responsible person with appropriate knowledge to undertake a regular disinfection, maintenance and monitoring regime, including disinfectant levels, pH, clarity plus regular filter changes, water changes and cleaning. Ensure that clear hot tub usage guidance notes are provided for all your guests.

Q. We love our open fireplace, but it is draughty. Do you have any suggestions how we can keep our guests cosy when the fire isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lit? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; LK, Lyme Regis A. Katie Treseder, property manager for Helpful Holidays, says:

Glass fireplace doors are easy to fit and can be made to measure. These doors are fitted to avoid the loss of house heat up unlit flues, which can suck more than 5.5 cubic metres (200 cubic feet) of warm air up the chimney per minute. In heating terms this represents three to four kilowatts of heat, for which you have paid, being lost up the flue all the time. Glass fireplace doors can also stop the emission of cold air from unlit fireplaces.

As we start 2015, a year which we believe will be a year of continuing confidence returning to the Westcountry property market, I am delighted to announce that we have made steps to improve the service to our clients and purchasers. We are now extending our Saturday office opening hours from 9am-1pm to 9am-4pm and most importantly we are opening on Sundays from 10am to 2pm. We are absolutely committed to giving our clients the best opportunity of selling in 2015. Bearing in mind that most house hunters are busy during the working week this will give them a great opportunity to actually speak to one of the team over the weekend to talk about their property requirements, arrange viewings and ultimately put offers forward to our clients. As pointed out by one of our clients: â&#x20AC;&#x153;This really will put Strutt & Parker in such a strong position with handling our sale and we really appreciate the steps they are taking to try and sell our property.â&#x20AC;?

of our enquiries come through the websites. However, it is our personal service which actually helps us convert these leads into sales and it is without doubt one of the reasons that my team is performing so well. We are the first of the Strutt & Parker network of over 50 offices throughout the UK to start this Sunday initiative. This move is completely endorsed by Guy Robinson, our new head of agency in London who says: â&#x20AC;&#x153;James and his team in Exeter have completely embraced my goal in increasing customer service levels and we are confident that our clients and purchasers will be more able to benefit with a sale or purchase moving forward. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is not surprising that he has grown our Exeter office sales by 70% already in 2014 and with this initiative, we are certain that the Exeter office will continue to grow in all sectors of the market.â&#x20AC;?

charity trek

Climbing Kilimanjaro for charity Jackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trek will cover lots of different terrain: the mountain is surrounded by dry savannah, yet the lower slopes are covered with lush forest. The peak is covered in snow and ice. The ten-day trek will be a gruelling experience. The expedition is completely self-funded, so that every penny Jack manages to raise will go directly to the charity. Jack said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Clearly Dementia UK is a charity very close to my heart, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d love to help in any way I can. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If it means putting myself through a painful climb for people to part with some money then so be it! â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been lucky enough to summit Mount Kenya before, but Kilimanjaro is higher and a much harder climb. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m looking forward to the challenge. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m grateful for the support of Jackson-Stops and I hope that others will be inspired to sponsor me, thus leaving my family, the charity and me eternally grateful.â&#x20AC;?

WMN-E01-S6

A brave climber from Jackson-Stops & Staff will be taking part in a ten-day trek to reach the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, and raise money for Dementia UK. Jack Osmond is a North Devon man, and his family members are stalwarts of their local community. Having got his start in the North Devon estate agency scene, Jack now works in London. On Christmas Day in 2011 Jackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grandmother Patricia, who he was extremely close to, suffered a mild stroke which in turn, triggered dementia. Over the next few years as the dementia took hold, her husband, local carers and her family looked after her as carefully as they could, but her condition worsened. In March 2013 Patricia died. Since then, Jack has wanted to honour his grandmotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life and memory, and raise awareness and funds for the charity, Dementia UK. Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest freestanding mountain in the world, at 5895m above sea level, and consists of three volcanos.
