The newly launched homes at High Path in Merton, which are within a short walk of South Wimbledon tube station, are therefore ideal for Londoners looking for easy access to the capital.
The properties are available with shared ownership from Latimer, part of Clarion Housing Group. They include one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments set around a beautifully landscaped internal communal garden.
The new apartments have been thoughtfully designed. They have plentiful storage, including a utility cupboard with a washer/dryer in each home. Every apartment also has its own private outdoor space in the form of a balcony, terrace, or patio. The interiors are the epitome of modernity, with sleek finishes and abundant natural light.
Built to the highest modern standards, the homes back their visual appeal with reliable quality. Kitchens include integrated fridge freezers and dishwashers, contemporary units, and tiled or vinyl floors. The bathrooms are bright and fresh, with white sanitaryware, chrome fittings, and tiles. Living spaces and bedrooms, meanwhile, feel warm and welcoming.
Krete Luca, sales director at Latimer, comments: “Few properties boast such a superb combination of local amenities and fast connectivity to the rest of London. With well-designed shared ownership homes available to suit solo buyers, couples and families, we’re expecting the high-quality apartments at High Path to be snapped up quickly.”
When it comes to connectivity, the High Path apartments shine. A short stroll takes residents to South Wimbledon tube station, which provides Northern Line services to the West End and City (Clapham Common in 11 minutes and Bank in 26). With King’s Cross St Pancras, just a 34-minute tube ride away, onward Eurostar journeys to Paris, Brussels and Amsterdam are also a breeze. Merton Bus Station is also a few minutes from High Path, offering services to Wandsworth, Putney and other South London hotspots. Trains from Wimbledon station, meanwhile, run to Clapham Junction in seven minutes and Waterloo in 17, while trams connect with Mitcham Junction in 12 minutes, Wandle Park in 20 and East Croydon in 31 minutes.
When not enjoying their superior connectivity to other parts of the capital, High Path residents have much to experience closer to home. The National Trust’s Morden Hall Park is an urban oasis of greenery. At the same time, the Wandle Trail and Haydons Road Recreation Ground add to the opportunities to spend time in nature and enjoy an active lifestyle. On the cultural front, Wimbledon has much to offer, including the New Wimbledon Theatre and the recently refurbished Polka Theatre – a specialist theatre for children, families and the local community to interact in various ways.
High Path residents are spoiled for choice regarding local shopping and dining options. An eight-minute walk away, Merton Abbey Mills is a popular spot to browse craft stalls, enjoy a range of family-friendly events, and enjoy some artisan food and drink. Central Wimbledon is also close by and is home to a huge selection of high-street and independent stores and eateries. A stroll up the hill puts Wimbledon Village within reach, with its upscale boutiques, traditional pubs, and impressive restaurants.
Merton is a sought-after location for everything from its vibrant cultural life to its excellent education offering. Merton Abbey and Perform Pelham primary schools are within easy reach of High Path, as are Wimbledon High School (rated Excellent by the Independent Schools Inspectorate) and the Ofsted Outstanding-rated Harris Academy.
