Former MOD properties go on sale in Biggin Hill
Demand for property in Greater London and the surrounding countryside has soared over recent months, as buyers look to escape the city in search for room to grow and the opportunity to get more for their money. Research shows that Bromley has seen the fifth highest sum of property sold out of all London boroughs during the pandemic*; Annington is helping to meet this demand in Biggin Hill by bringing a selection of properties to the market on Friday 16th July.
Situated on a sought-after, private, gated estate in Biggin Hill, these former military married quarters have been given a new lease of life. Annington will be releasing just eight properties in the area, with the first phase consisting of a four-bedroom semi-detached home, and a four-bedroom detached home. Each property sits on a generously sized plot, with plenty of room indoors, spacious gardens, and potential for further improvement.
Louise Saunders, Sales and Marketing Manager at Annington, commented: “As demand for property on the rural outskirts of London grows, we are expecting these fantastic homes to be snapped up fast. Our first release offers a great opportunity for a growing family to purchase a larger home for the years ahead.”
Biggin Hill is best known for its rich aviation history, including its own RAF base, which played a significant role in defence during the Second World War. The town is surrounded by picturesque countryside, and is home to an array of bustling shops, pubs and restaurants, a leisure centre and a library, alongside a memorial museum and heritage hangar.
Biggin Hill is part of the Transport for London operating area, and is served by a London bus service connecting to nearby towns and villages, with regular rail services into Central London from Bromley South and Orpington train stations (30 minutes from both), each just a short drive away.
A range of good primary and secondary schooling options are available for residents, including Biggin Hill Primary and Oaklands Primary Academy, as well as the Charles Darwin School for secondary-age pupils.
