Selling homes since 1835
We have been helping people sell their homes for over 175 years. This is the foundation on which our business is built. Starting from a single office in Mayfair, our network has grown to over 100 offices across England.
The thing that sets Winkworth apart from other estate agencies is the people who run our offices. Our directors own their businesses; they are local folk who, quite simply, love their patches and know them inside out. And then there are the mechanics of the Winkworth network; our offices work together, systematically sharing properties and buyers, and matching them up wherever they may be in the country, or the world.
Our way of doing things just works. It's all in the detail, from the unique approach we take to marketing each property, to the care and attention we give to buyers and sellers alike.
