With little over a fortnight to go until the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations, Windsor and the surrounding area is currently enjoying a much-welcome moment in the sun, with towns such as Maidenhead, in particular, basking in the glow of this heighened acclaim.
Although property in Windsor and Maidenhead has long been sought-after by families, young professionals and retirees alike, the kudos of this latest landmark event has provided a significant boost to property demand in the Royal Borough... with no sign of this letting up once the festivities subside.
One region, in particular, that has become somewhat of a hot spot for house-hunters in recent months, is the idyllic village of Holyport - located just five miles from Windsor.
Holyport is a popular settling point for families, especially, who are keen to enjoy the advantages of green space, local shops and favourable school catchments (including Holyport College) that this region offers.
With the upcoming Holyport Jubilee celebrations evidence of the community spirit that Holyport prides itself upon, there’s an opportunity in the coming weeks especially, for existing (and maybe future) residents to come together and enjoy the best that village life - and indeed rural Berkshire - has to offer.
Fortunately for local residents, Holyport is one of few places still to boast its own newsagents, chemist, doctor’s surgery, Post Office and butchers, as well as four local pubs, including the popular Belgian Arms and The George on the Green.
Located just two miles from Maidenhead - with its forthcoming crossrail links and extensive leisure facilities - Holyport is positioned conveniently close to the M4, Ascot Road and Windsor Road, allowing residents to enjoy unrivalled access to surrounding popular towns and cities such as Marlow, Reading and London.
It's these geographical advantages which - alongside its stock of sizeable and well-appointed property - make Holyport the 'one to watch' for those keen to trade in *some* of the hustle and bustle of Town or City living...for a 'best of both worlds' life in the so-called healthy living hub of the Home Counties.
