David Cosby has provided professional property advice for the residents of East Haddon since 2003.  We are an established firm of Chartered Surveyors and Estate Agents regulated by the RICS (The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors).  It is our belief that that all Estate Agencies should be governed by the strict professional guidelines required by the RICS to ensure consumer interests are at the heart of the business.

Thinking of moving to East Haddon?

​East Haddon is a peaceful and well-presented village surrounded by classic Northamptonshire countryside, known for its thatched cottages, attractive gardens and strong sense of community. The village dates back to at least the twelfth century and still retains its historic public water pump, sheltered beneath a distinctive thatched roof supported by timber pillars.

At the centre stands the Church of Saint Mary the Virgin, originally built in the twelfth century and largely rebuilt in the fourteenth. Its warm stone walls and pinnacled tower form a familiar landmark within the village.

Local amenities include a well-regarded primary school, village hall and a range of clubs such as tennis, gardening and cricket. The village pub and restaurant is a charming thatched building offering dining and accommodation. Ravensthorpe Reservoir, a short distance away, provides scenic walks and opportunities for wildlife watching, with the surrounding countryside popular for cycling and riding.

Secondary schooling is available at Guilsborough School, with further independent options at Maidwell Hall, Spratton Hall, Rugby, Uppingham and Oakham. With convenient access to the M1 and wider transport links through Milton Keynes, East Haddon offers a tranquil rural setting within easy reach of Northampton and Market Harborough.

A Professional Lettings Service

Managing a rental property can be demanding, particularly when balancing tenant selection, maintenance, compliance, and day-to-day communication. Our lettings team provides a professional and structured service to support landlords and protect their investment.

We are regulated by both the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors and ARLA, giving landlords confidence that their property is managed in line with recognised professional standards.

We have detailed knowledge of the local rental market and can advise on appropriate pricing, marketing, and tenant selection. Our referencing and screening process is designed to help secure suitable tenants who will meet their obligations throughout the tenancy.

Our service covers tenancy documentation, renewals, routine inspections, and maintenance coordination. We work with trusted contractors to address repairs promptly and keep the property in good order, while maintaining clear communication with both landlords and tenants.

Photography

Creating the best first impression of your home is essential in order to achieve a quick sale.  Our professional photography is captured using the highest quality professional grade cameras, lenses and flashes.  We do not use fish-eye lenses to give a false impression; however, we will spend time preparing and improving the RAW image data in professional software to ensure that your home is presented in its best light with images that will induce a ‘show-home’ appeal.

Floor Plans

Our in-house surveyors are experienced CAD operatives and we draft all our own floor plans.  This enables us to ensure a higher degree of accuracy than the typical estate agent floor plan.  We also provide a level of detail that enables potential purchasers to understand the space and amenities within your home.  We obtain our measurements for the floor plans using the latest laser scanners which helps to ensure quick, safe, and accurate collection of data.

Dry Rot in Action

Dry Rot in Action

During a recent survey of a Grade II Listed property, we encountered an active outbreak of dry rot within the basement. The fungus had formed extensive mycelium and a distinct rhizomorph “feeding strand” between timber stacks — a striking demonstration of how opportunistic and dynamic timber-decay fungi can be when the conditions are right.

Brick Noggings on Tudor Buildings

Our surveyors have a soft spot for brick noggings on Tudor buildings. These distinctive brick panels, set between timber frames, were a mark of wealth in their time and provide valuable clues about a building’s history, construction, and condition today.
