Our History
We have been selling exclusive London and country property since 1835. Our original Head Office was located in Curzon Street, Mayfair, with a country office in Brighton. Our main business involved selling residential property to an exclusive client list and letting houses in Mayfair to the landed gentry for 'the season'.
Of course, things are very different today. Society has changed and so has Winkworth. Our network now has over 80 independently owned and operated offices. Over 50 offices are located in prime central London and greater London locations, established country offices are located across the UK and rapid expansion into exclusive international markets has moved at pace in recent years.
As a name synonymous with prime UK residential real estate, Winkworth has become the obvious choice for both UK and international buyers and sellers.
The Network
Every single Winkworth office is owned by an independent proprietor, whose market expertise is unlikely to be surpassed. Our proprietors and their staff are encouraged to be active members of the local community too, which means they have a vested interest in ensuring every client receives an exemplary service.
All our offices work together. They share business and refer those clients that they can't help, perhaps because they don't cover the area in question, to an office that can. As a client, you don't just benefit from the services of one Winkworth office, you benefit from a whole network of offices, plus the specialist services of the Franchisor Office in London.
