South Cumbria and north Lancashire based agents Hackney & Leigh have opened a new high street office in Keswick with a cold start. 

Founded in 1982, and now with eight established offices located across south Cumbria and north Lancashire, the family run agency specialises in selling and letting homes throughout the Lake District and surrounding areas.

Commenting on the expansion, new office manager Nick Elgey said: “We are delighted to be opening our new Keswick office as its addition to the existing office network now allows us to offer truly unrivalled coverage of the entire Lake District National Park.

“Despite the changes in recent years which has seen some estate agents choose to operate different models, we strongly believe that providing a local high street office, with knowledgeable and friendly staff, allows us to deliver the highest levels of customer service.”

This year the company has also expanded its presence in Kendal, doubling its high street frontage.
