Buy, sell or let in Ampthill

We’ve spent more than 35 years in the property market in the Ampthill area – and most of the team lives here too. It’s safe to say we know this area like the backs of our hands! That local knowledge – and the great connections we’ve built along the way – make all the difference when it comes to selling or letting your home. Of course, we produce beautiful marketing packages and list your home on all the important portals too. That’s a given.

The extra mile: Living and working in the local community means we go the extra mile to smooth your sale or letting journey, and our network of 11 other Country Properties branches across Beds and Herts means we’ve got direct access to buyers and tenants across the region.

Specialist support for you: That network also includes an experienced team of specialists to support you whatever your circumstances; from first time buyers to downsizers and everyone in between. So we’ve got someone to help if you’re a growing family looking for a bigger, child-friendly home, a commuter needing great transport links, a remote/hybrid worker prioritising inspirational live/work spaces, a landlord expanding your portfolio – or pretty much anything else. Moving home is a big deal. We want to make your moving experience a breath of fresh air.

Getting personal with your property

Selling with us isn’t a production line. We’ll take time to find out the best bits about your property, so we can shout them from the rooftops.

Free valuations with value

If you’re just looking for a quick ballpark for how much your property’s worth, fill in our online form [link 1] for an instant guide. And for a free, in-person appraisal of your property get in touch. [link 2] More than simply a calculator based on square footage, we’ll use our knowledge of the local market to truly understand where your property sits in the current market.

Eye-catching photography and videography

Our photographers go above and beyond to showcase your home looking its best – sometimes literally, with drone pilots available to capture properties from the air.
We work with experienced, feet-on-the-ground videographers too. Whatever approach is right for your home, we’ll advise you on the best way to bring it to life for your potential buyers.

Accurate floor plans

It’s important for potential buyers to visualise how the space will work for them, so our state-of-the-art floor plans clearly highlight the flow of your home, before they even set foot in the place.

Brochures

While most buyers view brochures online these days, we can still create a physical copy if people prefer to have something to take away with them. Either way, we’ll design a compelling, attractive written showcase to give buyers a complete introduction to your home.

Scroll-stopping listings

It’s not rocket science – but it’s an art! The better your ad, the more clicks you’ll get and the quicker you’ll sell. We’ll recommend the best approach for your unique property, so your perfect buyers will spot you immediately.

Viewings that sell

Selling your home is our job. So we prefer to be there to show buyers around your home – at a time that suits both you and the people interested in viewing. We’ll sit down with you in advance, to make sure we understand all the best elements of your property and we’ll preempt as many viewer questions as we can. We believe accompanied viewings are better and easier for everyone, leaving you free to live your life while we sell your home.

Beat the market to your dream home

Online portals are fast – but a relationship with us is faster still. We’ll match buyers and sellers with homes across the Country Properties network – before they even hit the market, or keep an eye on our social media accounts to be in the know before the crowds.

Our Home Finder Service is another way to find a property fast. Simply key in what you’re looking for and we’ll help you view as many as possible before anyone else.

Tap into our experience and innovation

We’ve been helping buyers, sellers, tenants and landlords in Ampthill and surrounding villages for 35 years – while always working hard to be at the cutting edge of estate agency and customer service.

Share our contacts book

Over the years, we’ve discovered some great financial, surveying and legal professionals – as well as a bank of excellent tradespeople.

If you need a mortgage broker, a surveyor or a conveyancer, let us know. Our preferred firm of solicitors even works directly via our computer systems, which means we’re always up to speed with how your sale is progressing.

For anything else, we’ll pass you the details for people we’ve worked with before and who we know will do a fantastic job for you. This includes tradespeople who can solve problems and secure vital certification quickly and efficiently.

Marketing packages to suit your home

Of course, our job is to attract the right buyers for your home. And getting the photography, video, floor plans and writing looking irresistible is a huge part of that. Choose from our range of marketing packages – we’ll do the rest.

Keeping you in control – with our support

From talking you through the thinking behind our valuation, to matching the right buyers or tenants to your property, we want you to feel in control – never stressed. We’ll be there, guiding people around your property, doing the background checks and any other ways we can help take the pressure off. If you’re using our preferred solicitors, we’ll know exactly how your transaction is progressing at every step. If you prefer to use your own professionals, we will do our best too, regardless; updating you throughout the process – working hard to bring you the answers you need, especially as you get closer to completion.

Maximising the portals

It goes without saying that we will advertise your property on Rightmove, as well as on our own website, covering all 13 Country Properties branches, across our area.

We know how to create professional, scroll-stopping listings, designed to make the most of their broad reach. Our busy social media accounts bring your property’s details to active buyers looking in our towns and villages.

Support from the UK’s largest estate agent franchisor

We’re part of The Property Franchise Group (TPFG), one of the biggest estate agent groups in the country. This connection means we’re able to keep our skills topped up with quality in-house training and continuous development, as well as the latest market insights, to help us advise you best.

Buying a house in Ampthill is a choice that brings together the best of both worlds: a picturesque market town steeped in history and charm, nestled within the stunning Bedfordshire countryside, yet conveniently close to major urban centres like Milton Keynes and London. With its medieval market square, beautiful parks, and a strong sense of community, Ampthill offers a quality of life that’s hard to match.

Our business is personal

When it comes to summing up the flavour of Country Properties Ampthill, I’d say it’s our team that makes the difference.

We all know this area inside out. I raised my children here and my son Jake has followed me into the business, along with my niece, Amy – so a second generation of McClouds is now matching buyers with their dream homes in and around Ampthill. We are a genuine local family business and we believe that what’s right for the vendor is right for us. We value honesty above all else, while providing an individual approach to our customer service.

But it’s about more than knowledge. It’s about relationships and putting ourselves in your shoes (which is appropriate as the office used to be a shoe shop), to give every customer the best possible advice and service, every time. I’m proud of the team we’ve got today and I’m proud to still be working with the warm and friendly communities in and around Ampthill. Welcome!

Ampthill

Ampthill Area Guide

Ampthill is a Georgian market town between Bedford and Luton. People have been trading local produce at the markets here for centuries and continue today. In 2019, the market celebrated its 800th birthday with a wonderful festival.

Ampthill benefits from excellent commuter links as it’s located near the M1 as well as the A6 (which links Luton to Bedford). Luton is a 30-minute drive from Ampthill, and you can also travel easily to Milton Keynes in just over 20 minutes. Flitwick train station is just under two miles away and has direct trains to London taking approximately 40 minutes.

The Ampthill team sold our house for which they did a great job. The sales brochure looked really good and the team were active in moving the purchase through the process. They kept us informed as it progressed. A speedy, in housing terms, trouble free sale within 9 weeks. I cannot recommend them enough.
