    Why Move to Saffron Walden?

    Saffron Walden is a picturesque medieval, market town in the Uttlesford district of North Essex.

    In the 16th–17th centuries, the saffron crocus (Crocus sativus) was widely grown in the area, and this gave the town its name. A picturesque location that in 2018, was bestowed the award of “Best Small Outdoor Market” by the Great British Markets Awards.

    A popular weekly event, the town’s market, has been running since 1141 and it is still held in the town centre to this day.

    The town centre has a selection of independent stores and boutiques, plus there’s a Waitrose and Tesco Superstore for your weekly shop.

    Further afield, Cambridge and Bishop’s Stortford both have an extensive array of high street brands and distinctive independent boutiques.

    Saffron enjoys a close-knit community feel whereby residents have access to some excellent clubs, and recreational, social, and sporting facilities ideal opportunities to meet and socialise.

    Saffron Walden Cricket Club plays on the town’s common, with a history of cricket matches recorded back to 1757.

    Its Rugby Club plays in the London Leagues and offer training and competitive games for children ages 6-18-years. Appealing to all but particularly so to families, Saffron Walden ticks many of the boxes prospective buyers are searching for.

    St Mary’s Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School, R A Butler Junior School, and St Thomas More Catholic Primary School are all reputable schools and have achieved good results according to Ofsted.

    Places at the prep school Dame Bradbury’s, are very sought after. The school comes with an ‘exceptional’ rating from ISI. Many pupils from Dame Bradbury’s go on to study at the Stephen Perse School in Cambridge, which is part of the same school group.

    Saffron Walden County High School, a large co-educational academy with over 2000 pupils is a popular choice among parents, having received an ‘outstanding’ rating across the board from Ofsted.

    Things to Do in Saffron Walden

    Audley End Miniature Railway is a delightful 1.5-mile ride on Lord Braybrooke’s private 10.25” gauge track through the estate woodland. The children all enjoy looking out for the teddies that live in the woods, while the adults are reminded of a nostalgic era.

    Saffron Walden Museum is an award-winning museum that opened in 1835. It houses a wide-ranging collection covering the history of northwest Essex, from ancient times to the present day, and many other wonderful objects from across the world.

    The Common is the oldest of Saffron Walden’s open spaces sitting on its eastern side is the largest turf labyrinth still surviving in Europe. Children of all ages enjoy following the ‘path’ through the turf, which winds for about one mile within a circle 100 feet (30.5 meters) in diameter.

    From actors to footballers’ scholars to songwriters, interestingly, quite a few notable residents past and present are connected to the town.

    Actor Ian Lavender best known as Pike in Dad’s Army lived in the town until 2001. Jeff Hordley, actor, played Cain Dingle in the soap Emmerdale and Stephen McGann (one of the McGann brothers) also an actor, resides in the town.

    Saffron Walden Property

     

    The busy housing market is a fantastic combination of new homes, period properties, and suburban neighbourhoods where demand exceeds supply.

     

    For new build sites, there has been a huge surge in the last ten years to keep up with demand.

     

    Currently, there is just one new build development under construction.

     

    Linden Homes has a selection of 4 & 5-bed properties available on their Saffron View Estate.

     

    Having a town centre which is an official conservation area means that sometimes a small number of old townhouses and quaint cottages come onto the market, very highly sought after, they are also expensive.

     

    Rural locations which are also very desirable but close to the town include Finchingfield and Thaxted. These villages enjoy good travel connections, but all deliver the rustic charm you would expect from a rural area.
