Dartmouth Park’s exclusive, yet unstuffy, community atmosphere has caught the attention of many residents who love living here. This NW5 postcode is dominated by fine examples of Victoriana from tiered family residences to conversions, cottages and impressive mansion flats. There are also new-build residential developments being built towards the northern fringes and these are extremely popular with homebuyers and renters alike.
Where do you live? I currently live in Pinner, Middlesex which is an outer suburb of North West London.
What do you like most about the properties in North West London? On the basis of their architectural variety and historical interest alone, my favourite are Hampstead properties which are almost unmatched anywhere in London. The way in which charming period properties have been integrated with newer homes gives the neighbourhood plenty of choice and a great village feel. Close proximity to Hampstead Heath while, at the same time, being only 20 minutes away from the West End is another major plus point.
Tell us a little about your property career? Having been in the North London property business for nearly 35 years, I have had the advantage of working with, and alongside, many talented and respected individuals. My early years as a sales negotiator were spent in Mill Hill until I left to join Benham & Reeves Sales under its former owners. Now with the sales and lettings businesses under one roof and the ownership of Anita Mehra, it’s good to be resuming my Associate Director position and heading up the North London sales team.
What are your passions outside work and how do you relax? Being a passionate West Ham United supporter, I endeavour to attend every home match. I enjoy Bikram hot yoga, overseas travel and working on my (admittedly shaky) golf game. My wife and I love taking long country walks and being surrounded by nature.
Where in London do you live? I was born and brought up in, Muswell Hill, North London and continue to live there.
What do you like most about the properties in Dartmouth Park? The tranquil, village-like atmosphere of Dartmouth Park gives it a strong sense of community that I find very attractive. The striking Grade II listed row of Georgian Town Houses on Grove Terrace is a perfect example of how period architecture dominates this small enclave. Victorian and Edwardian homes are well represented, too.
Tell me a little
about your property career
Soon
after leaving university, I began working in property and twenty five years on,
I still get the same buzz that first attracted me to the industry. Working for
a number of respected estate agents, I covered the St John’s Wood and Hampstead
areas and really got a feel for what makes North/West London such a special
place. I have had the pleasure of working in the beautiful surroundings of
Dartmouth Park since 2013 and have met lots of very nice, friendly homeowners
whom I’ve enjoyed helping.
What are your passions outside work and how do you relax? I’ve always had a passion for sport, especially American Football. I played in my younger days and had the honour of representing Great Britain for three years. I still enjoy a 5-a-side soccer match with friends. I have travelled extensively in the past and hope to visit Australia in the near future.
Where do you currently live? I have always
lived in North London and am currently living near Highgate.
What do you like most about Dartmouth Park
and Tufnell Park areas? Both areas are full of history and enjoy a
good mix of families and individuals from all walks of life. Great proximity to
Hampstead Heath and Parliament Hill are key reasons why both areas are so
popular and having a Northern line Tube station taking you into central London
within 30 minutes adds to the overall appeal.
Tell me a little about your property career
& experience? Before joining Benham and Reeves, I worked as a lettings’
negotiator in prime central London which has helped me build a good foundation,
with many transferable skills that I now use in my sales role.
What are your passions outside work and how
do you relax? I enjoy playing golf regularly and am quite sociable so will often
travel across the UK at weekends to visit friends in various cities.
What is your favourite part of London? Hammersmith – it’s one of the best places in West London for live music, riverside strolls and taking in the river views from a pub terrace along the way.
What key skills do you bring to your role? My strongest attribute is my determination. I take on every challenge head-on and do what I need to accomplish my goals, even when the challenge is difficult. I enjoy communicating with people and developing my soft skills.
What are your passions outside work for relaxation? I love dancing salsa! For me, it’s a great way of keeping fit and complements a healthy lifestyle, both physically and emotionally. Benefits include keeping me in a good mood which the sales team seem to appreciate!
Where do you currently live? I live
in a quiet suburb of West London.
What do you like most about the area where you work? Hampstead is such a pretty place to work. The village is very well served by all
amenities as well as artisan eateries and pubs. The architecture is mainly
period and of course the Heath provides plenty of green space to unwind and
enjoy.
Tell me a little about your property career & experience? Though recent to the real estate industry, my time spent working
as an office administrator has allowed me to bring transferable skills to my
role and Benhams. I’m organised and have good document management and IT skills
and I’m also adaptable which is needed working alongside such a busy sales team.
What are your passions
outside work and how do you relax? I enjoy archery every weekend and sometimes I also participate in some club competitions. It really helps me mentally whilst providing a full body workout at the same time.
Areas covered by Benham & Reeves Dartmouth Park estate agents
Billy has been amazing from start to finish. After multiple bad experiences with other main players (Foxtons and Dexter not to mention them), I walked across B&R agency in Tufnell Park, and the attention to detail and the communication were already totally different. We are very happy with the level of service provided, and I couldn't recommend Billy enough. For Foxtons and Dexter, it was just "another deal", whereas for B&R I felt that they really cared and understood what we wanted. Once again, thank you !
We bought our flat through Billy Boyle at Benham & Reeves. Billy was always professional, helpful and insightful. Throughout the long process of finding and buying a flat he was the nicest estate agent we worked with, by a long shot, and made a stressful process that much easier. Highly recommended.
Abbie recently helped us close our new home rental. She was super patient, supportive and understanding with our myriad requests - through multiple viewings as well as helping negotiate some of the additional clauses that we had requested due to our special circumstances. In as much as house hunting can be quite stressful, Abbie made it all very smooth and easy for us.
Billy is a highly experienced estate agent and provided us with great insights and advices for our house purchase in Highgate in 2022. I strongly recommend Billy and Benham & Reeves for any move or rental you are considering
Really great experience with selling our house. It went very smoothly. Our agent was fantastic and all our dealings were friendly, efficient and everything went through on time
Had the pleasure of working with Abbie White and Billy Boyle quite recently - and they have been super helpful, knowledgeable and diligent during the whole process, would highly recommend both!
