We are pleased to confirm the successful completion of the sale of 5.5 acres at Cresswell Lane near Malmesbury.

Beth Webber launched the property to market, achieving immediate interest and a prompt sale process. An offer at the guide price was secured within just two weeks of launch, reflecting strong demand.

Prior to marketing, Beth Webber and Chris Powell successfully negotiated the surrender of an unwritten Agricultural Holdings Act tenancy, ensuring the land was positioned to achieve maximum value for our client.

Thank you to Georgia Clark at Wansbroughs in supporting the legal and conveyancing process.

Succession planning, business restructuring, future planning - whatever term you might use – is an area on which Chris Powell, Partner at Symonds & Sampson’s Devizes office, has helped numerous clients throughout his career. Read more as he offers his advice here: https://ow.ly/wyyn50WzjaZ
