About us

Still on Quay Street, still independent

Margaret Fenwick and Tom Vale opened the office on Quay Street in 1987, in what used to be a ship’s chandlery. We are still in the same building, and still owned by the people who work here.

We are a small team on purpose. The agent who values your home is the one who shows it, negotiates the offer and calls you when the keys change hands.

Where we work

Four corners of Larkmouth

Every part of town has its own character. These are the areas we know best.

  1. Old Town

    Cobbled lanes between the church and the harbour. Listed cottages, very little parking and the best pubs.

  2. Harbourside

    Converted warehouses and newer flats along the quay, most with a view of the boats.

  3. Saltcombe

    A village two miles up the estuary, with a primary school, a shop and bigger gardens.

  4. Westcliff

    Edwardian family houses on the hill above the beach, ten minutes’ walk from the station.

The people you’ll deal with

No call centres, no hand-offs. Just a small team who know the town.
