--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
London News
With the individual offshore allowance for South Africans now at R4 million, coupled with the fact that the central London housing market has started its recovery, the timing is ideal for local investors to capitalise on opportunities to acquire prime-located London residential property at attractive pricing and with the potential for medium to long term capital growth.

Hand Picked
On a recent trip to the UK, Dr Golding and Chris Immelman, who is MD of the PGP group’s International Division, viewed several residential developments in central London, and hand-picked the two most appropriate for the South African investor market. They are Avington House at Queen Mary’s Place, SW15 and Trinity Place at Raynes Park SW20.


AVINGTON HOUSE
QUEEN MARY’S PLACE, SW15

Location
Queen Mary's is located in the grounds of the historical Roehampton House building, which lends a natural style and elegance to the entire development.
Avington House forms part of the Queen Mary's Place development, situated in the heart of South West London on the doorstep of Wimbledon and Putney.

Avington House has been designed to provide a soothing and relaxing backdrop to the fast pace of modern living.

Apartments - Avington House consists of:
25 x 1- and 2-bedroom apartments and penthouses,
  - many of which have their own balconies,
Residents also have use of the centrally maintained historic gardens,
Car and cycle club and
Residents' gymnasium.
Open plan living areas allow rooms to flow seamlessly from one to the other and, along with expansive areas of glazing, create a fresh environment with an emphasis on light and space.
Contemporary, stylish décor, creating sleek, stunning living spaces that still allow you to make your own mark.
Pricing
Two bedroom units are priced from £339 000 to £380 000

Fixtures and Fittings
Fixtures and fittings are handpicked for their aesthetic appeal and superior quality, every detail displaying the excellent standards of Avington House.

Kitchen - Sleek, streamlined kitchen units with the latest in integral appliances are the very essence of functional chic, and stylish, understated bathrooms feature elegant white sanitary ware and chrome fittings.

Schools and Parks
Richmond Park is a few minutes' walk away, the area boasts some of the best primary and secondary schools that London has to offer, while access to business districts and central London is offered by a variety of overland and underground train routes.
Listed Building
One of only three Grade I listed buildings in SW15, the original house is a stately Baroque landmark, which was built by Thomas Archer in the early 18th Century and enlarged 200 years later.

Architecture
The magnificent Baroque architecture of the original Roehampton House has been retained throughout the development, providing an exterior charm to complement cutting edge interior design.



The Grounds
More than 30% of the Queen Mary's Place site has been set aside as open space, offering residents in all the individually restored, renovated or newly constructed residential nodes, the feeling of space and sanctity in a uniquely relaxed urban environment.
