If you’re hoping to move in the first half of 2026, now’s the perfect time to start preparing. The property market may feel a little quieter as winter approaches, but getting your timing right could make all the difference between moving in spring or waiting until summer.

A rare Grade II listed 3-bedroom end-of-terrace cottage, on the market for the first time in 34 years. Offering 1,048 sq ft, two receptions, large front and rear gardens, and huge refurbishment potential. Just 200 ft from Temple Fortune’s shops and cafés. Chain free with HGST fee approx. £200.

A beautifully presented 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom top-floor apartment in a period conversion of three, offering over 700 sq ft of light-filled living space. Features include a modern kitchen, en suite principal bedroom, parking, and a share of freehold. Moments from Golders Green Tube and The Heath Extension.

The data shows that good homes, priced right and marketed well, are still performing strongly. If you’re thinking ahead to your next move (whether selling or simply understanding value), now is a good time to review your strategy and refresh your presentation.
