John D Wood & Co. has expanded its London network with two new flagship residential sales and lettings offices in Herne Hill and Beckenham.

The new offices represent a milestone addition to the firm’s network and mark its first foray into Southeast London.

According to Connells, which owns John D Wood & Co., the new branches create a seamless link with the country house department which has a well-established presence across Kent.

Bridging the gap between London and the country and led by a team of long-standing agents in the areas, both the sales and lettings departments operate not just in their core areas but also beyond.

The Herne Hill office reaches across neighbouring residential areas such as Dulwich Village and East Dulwich, and the Beckenham office also covers Keston, Bromley and Chislehurst.

Polly Ogden Duffy, managing director at John D Wood & Co., said, “Beckenham and Herne Hill have long been on our radar as natural extensions of our network, offering our clients village charm within Greater London amongst thriving communities, as well as excellent connectivity to the country and central London. Following the success of our post-pandemic established country house department which continues to see strong demand for prime homes in Kent, this expansion into southeast London highlights the growing interest in areas that offer a balance between urban and rural living.

“Our goal is to be the local prime agent of choice, bringing our extensive local knowledge and exceptional service to the residents of Herne Hill and Beckenham. We look forward to becoming an integral part of these vibrant communities and continuing our tradition of excellence in assisting buyers, sellers, landlords and tenants.”
