London buyers on the hunt for luxury properties are now actively pursuing town locations close to the countryside, with leading property consultants Savills reporting a 90% increase in demand for homes away from the capital[1]. Nestled within the historic and sought-after Royal Borough of Windsor is Spitfire Bespoke Homes' superior collection of luxury apartments and townhouses at St Mark's Gate. Enjoying an enviable setting a short walk from the historic town centre, Windsor Castle and two train stations, this stunning collection of properties offer the perfect combination of a metropolitan London lifestyle, but with expansive countryside settings such as Great Windsor Park with the  famous The Long Walk, on the doorstep.

Georgie Roberts from Savills' New Homes Division comments: “We have seen a significant increase in demand for new homes in Windsor and the surrounding areas since the start of June. London buyers are looking to escape the capital and get a bigger property for their money with access to outdoor space, whilst still benefitting from strong commuter links, while many local buyers are now making the most of the current low interest rates and mortgages available. Due to its proximity to the town centre, spacious design and outdoor space in the form of balconies or courtyard gardens, buyers of the apartments at St Mark's Gate have included downsizers and people looking for a property which they can safely lock up and leave.”

Conveniently positioned within the heart of this charming and vibrant Thames-side town, St Mark's Gate delivers an exceptional collection of nine apartments, with some of Windsor's finest features and green spaces on the doorstep. Discerning buyers can take full advantage of the relaxing and tranquil lifestyle without giving up the benefits of nearby London. Windsor Great Park is a haven for those who enjoy the great outdoors including ramblers and cyclists and The Thames in Windsor also provides a beautiful riverside setting for leisurely evening and weekend strolls. St Leonards Road is within walking distance of the homes, where there is an array of local produce and amenities and a selection of chic fashion boutiques.
