Spotlight on Chesham - our estate agent’s view
Thursday, September 13, 2018
Spotlight on Chesham - our estate agent’s view. Chesham is a popular market town on the edge of the Chilterns, surrounded by picturesque open countryside yet within easy reach of the M25 and M1. It’s an easy commute to London via Amersham’s mainline train service into Marylebone or Chesham’s own Metropolitan Line station into Baker Street, making Chesham a prime commuter town. Earliest records date back to the 10th century although archaeological evidence shows people in the area from around 8000 BC. Historically Chesham is best known for its four Bs – Baptists, boot making, beer and brush making - but today the town’s employment lies in small businesses, technology and professional services.

As the days get cooler, small changes, such as heavier fabrics and warm lighting transform your home and it’s a great time to give your garden a spruce up before frosts set in.

Whether or not you have done your homework over the summer, now’s a good time to get moving! The kids are back to school, there’s the prospect of an Indian summer with light, warm evenings for viewing and motivated buyers rising to the challenge of securing a new home by Christmas! Buying or selling property can be a lengthy process, with many obstacles along the way, but with skilled negotiators working on your behalf, working closely with those responsible for the conveyancing or financing of a sale, it can also be plain sailing.
