Estate Agents for Wickham

Buying and selling property in the village

Estate agents handling property in Wickham are based primarily in Bishop's Waltham, Fareham, and Winchester, where the main agencies have offices. There is no estate agent's office within the village, but agents across the area regularly list Wickham properties and know the local market.

The Winchester and Fareham offices of national and regional chains, including Savills, Chinneck Shaw, Fox and Sons, and others, handle Wickham property. Independent agents in Bishop's Waltham are also well placed to sell village properties. The agents with the longest track record in the Meon Valley tend to have the best understanding of Wickham's character and the particular factors that affect property values.

Property in Wickham is generally in demand. The village's character, its conservation area, the bypass that keeps through traffic out of the centre, and the attractive Meon Valley setting all contribute to its desirability. Period properties around The Square command the highest prices, and properties with views or river frontage attract particular interest. More modern housing on the village edges sells at prices closer to the Hampshire average.

For those looking to buy in Wickham, registering with several agents is advisable, as properties do not come onto the market in large numbers and the most desirable homes attract interest quickly. The village is popular with families, retirees, and people relocating from London who are drawn by the combination of village character and good transport links to the capital via Fareham or Winchester stations.
