Top 10 reasons to buy at... No.1 Millbrook Park in Mill Hill

Posted 18 December 2019 by Keith Osborne

10 top reasons why house-hunters should consider purchasing a home at No.1 Millbrook Park from housebuilder Joseph Homes...

The WhatHouse? team recently visited No.1 Millbrook Park in Mill Hill, north London, to find out with help from our host, Joseph Homes sales director Séan Ruane, the ten best reasons to buy a new home there.

Reason 1: It’s a sought-after part of London.

The views south across the city are wonderful, a vista covering everything from Docklands to Wembley Stadium. As well as the useful things – shops, highly regarded schools, amenities – there are also many open spaces around this area. It’s an area combining a lot of history with up-to-date places for dining, socialising and sport.

Reason 2: It’s a well-connected village.

We walk from Mill Hill East station at the end of the Northern line (a 35-minute journey from Bank) and get to the front door of the marketing suite in around 10 minutes. Local bus services call at places including Edgware, North Finchley and Mill Hill Broadway station. The M1 and North Circular are both little more than five minutes away.

Reason 3: Design.

Inspired by Georgian architecture, the new townhouses at No 1. Millbrook Park are being delivered with a modern twist and finishes. Joseph Rajah once said: “If I had to point to one thing that makes our product stand out, it’s our exacting attention to detail.”

Large skirting boards, high ceilings and spacious living areas complemented by large windows that make the very most of natural light and views are said to improve health, as well as being so appealing to the eye.

Reason 4: Joseph Homes’ apartments are good for the planet and for your health.

Joseph Homes is looking to disrupt the market with its compassionate approach to delivering better homes, for a better world. The developer puts people and the environment first to reflect today’s socially and environmentally responsible customer – from toxic-free paints and materials to mechanical ventilation and pollen filters alleviating symptoms for those with hayfever; No 1 Millbrook Park offers homes not to be sneezed at! This all results in a consistently high standard of internal air quality, reducing the impact of harmful chemicals.

Reason 5: Be a part of the future of living standards.

Joseph Homes is ensuring it will consult the government on its Future Homes Standard in place currently, to ensure the industry looks at implementing ways to build that improves carbon emissions. A series of pledges include targeting a minimum 60% carbon reduction in all homes and spaces from 2020, and by 2025 the company says all its homes will be carbon positive over their lifespan.

Reason 6: Spacious, open-plan layouts.

At 2,038 sq ft, the three-bedroom house type ‘The Bingley’ is around 26% larger than a typical Taylor Wimpey four-bedroom home. Touring the show homes will give you first-hand experience of this, and you’ll see how the high ceilings and full-height windows give each room very impressive proportions.

Reason 7: Appeal to a wide array of buyers.

No.1 Millbrook ParkThere are one- and two-bedroom apartments and three- and four-bedroom houses for sale here (149 homes in total), something to appeal to all kind of buyers. There's been keen interest from those buying a first home by themselves or as a couple using London Help to Buy, as well as those moving up the property ladder and downsizing. It’s a very ‘family oriented’ area too, with a number of local Chinese buyers and people moving from postcodes such as E14 who want ease of access to The City and West End in an area more suited to bringing up children.

Reason 8: All Joseph Homes’ employees and contractors enjoy building your home.

Joseph Homes know that happy, healthier employees across the board make for better environments so even when constructing their homes, Joseph is sure that the well-being of its workers is at the core of its operations. Mental health initiatives are particularly important and Joseph realises things need to change within the sector to protect and enhance mental and physical wellbeing. The developers work closely with ‘Mates in Mind’ to help raise awareness of the issues and stigma. Having accredited Mental Health First Aiders both on site and in the office is also a proactive way to normalise conversations around mental health.

Reason 9: Cheaper heating bills with better temperature management.

As the winter drawers in, there’s no need to worry about high heating bills, the town houses are super-efficient thermally, and that way they only require minimum energy to heat them. The MVHR (mechanical ventilation and heat recovery) systems regulate the air and ensure the air is filtered, while cooling down the homes come summer.

Reason 10: Attention to detail in design.

Joseph Rajah said: “If I had to point to one thing that makes our product stand out, it’s our exacting attention to detail. We are a design-led firm that started out in prime London delivering homes worth £3m plus. That same team, with the same dedication to quality, is now delivering our product in local neighbourhoods across London. We construct ourselves for this exact reason, to preserve quality and commonsense design.
