Business Details
We have served Eastbourne and the surrounding Downland communities as independent estate agents since our establishment in 1970. Our firm was founded by James Emslie and Bernard Tarrant, building a reputation for residential property expertise spanning over five decades. Following Bernard Tarrant's passing in 1980, James Emslie continued the business with his wife Sarah until their retirement in 2002. Robert Townsend then joined the company, preserving our traditional values while introducing innovative technology to enhance client results. We operate from two prominent offices in Cornfield Road and Meads Street, each offering a professional and welcoming environment. Our dedicated team provides over fifty years of combined experience specialising exclusively in residential estate agency.
