Villages I know best
Choose a village to see what I have there, or ask me what’s coming up before it reaches the portals.
“The right village matters more than the right house. You can change a kitchen; you can’t move a school or a train line.”
Edward Ashby, Burford, Oxfordshire
A word from me
For eighteen years I’ve sold houses between Burford and Chipping Campden. Most of my buyers are moving from London; most of my sellers have been in their homes for decades.
A good country house sale is slow at the start and quick at the end. I spend time on the price, the story and the photographs, so the right buyer recognises the house the moment they see it.

From the albums
“Edward understood the house better than we did. He priced it carefully and it sold to the right people.”
“As Londoners we knew nothing about the Cotswolds. Edward told us which villages actually suit families.”
