Winkworth continues its expansion in the south-west of England with the opening of a new office in in Tiverton – Winkworth’s fourth branch in Devon.

The new office, which offers both sales and lettings, will be run by Exeter franchisee Chris Baker, who opened the branch on the back of purchasing a lettings portfolio in the area – his third lettings acquisition backed by funding from Winkworth Franchising Limited.

Dominic Agace, chief executive, Winkworth, said: “Devon is on many people’s wish lists as a much-loved holiday destination where they would like to move to one day.

“With the advent of working from home as a result of the pandemic, this has now become a real choice and our offices in the county have seen significant demand from people moving from London and other urban areas.

“We are delighted to have supported Chris Baker with the Tiverton office, which is in such a great strategic location.”
