Welcome to Country Properties Estate Agents and Letting Agents Flitwick

Overview

Owned and operated by Director Duane Savage, our Flitwick branch opened in 1996 and soon became the leading agent in the town, a position that we strive to maintain.  In 2017 our separate Sales and Lettings branches combined and now offer the convenience of a complete property service under one roof.  Our modern office is situated in the heart of the town centre, opposite the mainline rail station, and benefits from plenty of free parking right outside – Whether you’re buying, renting, selling or letting, a warm welcome is guaranteed within our comfortable refurbished surroundings.

Duane started his career in Estate Agency aged 18 and along with the Flitwick team has over 100 years of combined experience within the industry.  We’re all local and most of us were raised in the area so have great knowledge of the schools and amenities which we’re more than happy to share.  Sales Manager Phil Brown and Lettings Manager Wendie Webb are backed by  honest and friendly staff who provide a personalised service with a commitment to customer care.

If you’re considering selling or letting, we’re happy to provide a Free, no obligation valuation and offer tailored marketing packages with professional photography available in order to showcase your property at it’s very best.  Do you need mortgage advice?  Our in-branch Financial Adviser, Steve Boland of Mid Beds Mortgage Services is on hand to guide you through the process. 

As well as Flitwick, our branch focuses on the surrounding villages of Flitton, Greenfield, Pulloxhill, Westoning, Harlington and Toddington so whether you’re looking for a commuter pad close to the station or a countryside retreat we can help! If your search takes you further afield, Country Properties have branches across Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire and are proud to be part of the wider Hunters group, one of the largest national Sales and Lettings businesses in the UK.

Country Properties Flitwich have just sold my house. I was extremely impressed by Phil Brown’s dedication and communication with me. He kept morale up when things weren’t going smoothly, and worked tirelessly to achieve the sale between my property and the house I was purchasing. I cannot speak highly enough of Phil Brown and his colleagues and would not hesitate to recommend them to my friends.

Mrs Robson, Westoning

Country properties Flitwick have recently sold our house in Flitwick and I have to say they were fantastic. A few years ago we purchased our first property with them and then a few weeks ago sold the same property with them and again they were brilliant. As some things were not going so smoothly, they communicated with me daily and kept me up to date with everything going on. They made a stressful process a whole less stressful and achieved the sale of our property. The whole team were very professional, understanding and friendly and we couldn’t of done it without them. I can highly recommend Phil brown and his colleagues they were fantastic throughout the whole process. Thank you!

Miss Szwajbak, Flitwick

Phil and the team are exceptional in their service. They understand the stress that moving can put on peoples lives and do everything they can to ensure the process runs smoothly. They go the extra mile to ensure good communication between all parties and work to look after every ones best interests.

Miss Halls, Westoning

I would recommend country properties to anyone! I have used them twice now (once renting and once buying) and their service, friendly manner & knowledgeable team make the process as hassle free as possible. A special thanks to Steve in Flitwick for going above & beyond at every point and Duane & Phil were friendly and super speedy throughout! Thanks again all
