how it works Inside, things are up to the buyer, so I sat down with the eponymous founder of Rachel Winham Interior Design to find out what she and her team will be offering those buying a home. “You come to us with a floor plan and we will then develop the brief with you,” said the Hampstead-based designer. “Whether you want that turn-key styling or to focus on specific areas, we’ll talk that through, along with time frames and, more importantly, budget and what’s achievable. “When we’ve built up the scope of works, we’ll put together a concept and that will consist of a floor plan with a furniture layout. “Then for each area we’ll have a selection of furniture and rendered elevations. Then there will be the technical drawings and the materials.” is it a package deal? “What we wanted to steer away from was being prescriptive and saying to people: ‘You are having this headboard, that chair and that sofa’,” said Rachel. “That would be boring and you

Proportion of work that Rachel’s firm does for private clients as opposed to developers Rachel has furnished and decorated the two-bedroom show home at the development to go about ﬁnding that out is to actually show people physical samples. That’s why having meetings is key. The colour schemes we’ve created are designed to assist them with their vision. “They may want colour for their living space, for example, but for the bedroom to be quite calm.” what’s included? “This really depends on how far the client wants to go,” said Rachel. “They may have their accessories. In a show home it’s not very personal – we’re choosing books and ornaments because we like the look of them. That’s the same with artwork. A client may not have a clue about art so we’ll give them a selection of pieces and then we’ll go through options with them. But, someone may have their own collection and then we’ll work with that. Normally the design will start around that. “What a client at Telford can typically expect to achieve is all furniture and soft furnishings, window treatments and decoration work, which would include paintwork and wallpapering. “Subject to budget you’d likely get in a piece of joinery too as well as bed and bath linens. Then we’ll provide an after care service as well if people want a follow-up.” how long will it take? “You could expect the design process to take somewhere between two and four weeks subject to how quickly the client makes the decisions,” said Rachel. “Then the actual procurement process is somewhere between four and eight weeks, subject to the level of detail. Our installation period is usually a week. For anyone in a rush we could do eight weeks but it’s typically 12.”

Rachel designs 75% of the pieces for each of her projects don’t want something someone else has got or to feel like you’re living in the same property as somebody else. “What we’re proposing is you have three styles and people can choose what’s most suited to their tastes. It may be they want something transitional – a combination of classical and contemporary. “Or they might want to go for a clean, contemporary look or something more eclectic and quirky. “Then we also have a selection of colourings to select from. When you say to people: ‘What colour do you like?’ some will say: ‘I don’t like colour,’ but you’ll show them something completely neutral and they’ll ﬁnd it boring. People know what they want. The way we need

what the developer says Telford Homes group sales and marketing director David Campbell said: “The E14 postcode remains a strong investment, with excellent infrastructure and a quality lifestyle. The Liberty Building is unique in the area as it offers truly spacious homes finished to the highest specification while being significantly less per square foot than comparative new-build developments. “We understand many purchasers are looking for a turn-key property they can move straight into. “They can arrive with just a suitcase and settle into their newly decorated home with everything provided, from a comfortable sofa to the cutlery.” Go to telfordhomes.london or call Telford Homes on 020 3930 2469

why London is only fifth on the list of least affordable cities By Jon Massey

ll those finding it difficult to get on the property ladder in London, take a deep breath. The capital wasn’t the least affordable city in the UK in 2018, at least if recently released figures from Lloyds Bank are to be believed. In fact it only just made the top five. Aspiring buyers in both Oxford, Chichester, Winchester and Truro all had it worse with average house prices all more than 11 times the typical salaries in the cities. Nationally the rise in city property values outpaced wages by 11%, according to the bank’s study, which saw affordability slip to its lowest level since 2007 when the ratio of average cost to earnings stood at 7.5. Before the great gnashing of teeth begins, there was recognition in the study that London’s figure was seriously skewed by taking Greater London as a whole, with central areas significantly less affordable than outlying boroughs. Lloyds mortgage products director Andrew Mason Average house price for said: “Buying a Greater London according home in UK cities to Lloyds Bank in 2018 remains challenging, as average house prices are outpacing wage growth. Average house price for “However the Winchester in 2018 market has seen the number of first-time buyers at a high and home owners are still attracted to cities across the UK, in spite of rising costs. Over the past five years, more than half of northern cities have made the UK top 10 in house price growth, whereas over a longer period, southern cities dominate.” Those looking for an affordable alternative to the south may wish to consider Stirling where average properties were only 4.4 times average earnings. The Scottish city was in the top spot in Lloyds’ index for the sixth year in a row and this year shared it and the ratio with Londonderry in Northern Ireland. Bradford (4.6) was found to be the most affordable city in England and Swansea (5.5) was the cheapest in Wales. Go to lloydsbank.com for more information

Is downsizing a good idea for residents of E14? Number of properties

16,000

12,000

8,000

4,000

Imagine having fewer rooms to clean, cheaper bills to pay and spending less on your home each month. There was a time when downsizing was the reserve of older people once their children had flown the nest. However, today people do it for many reasons such as those related to personal finances, priorities and lifestyle choices. But what does this mean in the context of E14? Let's start off with the basics - how much cash could you free up? In E14, the average two-bed costs £520,000 whilst three-beds cost £770,000. In crude terms, this means that each room a homeowner sacrifices could free up around £250,000 - useful if you are thinking about retirement or if your circumstances change.

Those deciding to downsize will need to find a place to put all their ‘stuff’. The contents of a three-bedroom property will not fit into a one bedroom, so you will either need to sell a few items or put them into storage. On the plus side, selling some of the things you have accumulated over the years provides the opportunity to declutter and make extra money. Downsizing used to be synonymous with a reduction in homeowners' standard of living. However, today it is seen as the opposite. More people are deciding to downsize in order to have more money in the bank, whether that’s for holidays, cars or just having a bit extra for a rainy day. If you would like to talk about the possibility of downsizing in E14, pop into my office for a friendly chat. Spencer Fortag spencer@lmlondon.com

When downsizing, each room you sacriﬁce could free up around £250,000. Get a free and instant online valuation www.docklandspropertyblog.com
