WHAT MADE YOU LOOK FOR A NEW PROPERTY? Dan and I spent six years living in a cool warehouse-style basement flat in Crystal Palace. It was our first home together and perfectly suited our lives as young professionals in London. However, when our first son Oakley arrived, it was time for a new chapter – a family home with a garden in a more wholesome environment. We focused on charming, commutable areas in Surrey, near the Thames and surrounded by beautiful rolling countryside.
