The house was nice, a bit small especially the garden and the bedrooms, the agent who showed us the place was really nice and helpful. Thinking about the space made us change our minds.

I cannot speak highly enough of the Wallingford team. They worked seamlessly together with supreme competency as they quickly responded to my queries and requests for help. All this was done with indomitable cheeriness, which has been all the more appreciated given the pressures of these challenging times.

I would highly recommend Winterbrook Estate Agents. I have just sold my house through them and they were professional and very responsive to my million and one questions. From the initial enquiry through to the day of sale. Brilliant.
