Houses, estates and penthouses · Fenmoor Valley, Highcombe, Lantern Bay

Private sales of homes, estates and penthouses

Fenmoor & Hale handles the sale of high-value homes, often without a public listing. Every viewing is arranged in advance, and every buyer is qualified before they see a home.

What we do

A small agency for a small number of homes

We take on a limited number of homes at a time, so each one has an adviser who knows it room by room.

  1. Discreet sales

    Your home shown only to qualified buyers we have met, with no public listing unless you choose one.

  2. Photography and film

    Architectural photography, a short film, drone views of the grounds and a measured floor plan.

  3. Buyer search

    A written brief, early notice of homes that are not publicly listed and second viewings at short notice.

  4. Buyer qualification

    Proof of funds and identity checked before any viewing, so owners know who walks through the door.

  5. Relocation help

    School lists, short lets while you search, and introductions to local lawyers and surveyors.

  6. Valuations

    A price range based on comparable sales and the features of the plot, explained in a written report.

How a discreet sale works

Private valuation

An adviser visits, then sends a written price range and the sales it was based on.

Photography and film

A shoot planned around the light and the seasons, approved by you before it is shared.

Qualified viewings

Buyers show proof of funds and identity before an accompanied visit.

Offer to completion

Offers passed on in writing, then weekly calls with both lawyers until completion.

Advisers

Each adviser handles a small number of homes, from the first visit to the day the keys change hands.

Questions

What does not publicly listed mean?

The home is not on any public site. We share details only with buyers we have qualified.

Why do you check buyers before a viewing?

Owners want to know who is coming. We ask for proof of identity and funds first.

Can I see a home at short notice?

Often, yes. Once you are qualified, your adviser can arrange a visit within a few days.

Do you help buyers moving from abroad?

Yes. We can arrange video viewings, short lets and introductions to local lawyers.

How long are your sale terms?

Sole agency terms run for twelve weeks, then continue month to month until you end them.

How do I know a payment request is real?

Call your adviser on a number you trust before sending money. We never change bank details by email.
