Estate Agents in Flore
David Cosby have been been providing professional property advice for the residents of Flore 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 Flore?
Flore is a small historic village set on a gently sloping, south-facing hillside above the River Nene. Recorded as Flora in the Domesday Book, the village has long been associated with its floral origins, reflected today in the well-kept gardens and stone cottages that give Flore much of its character.
The village includes a number of notable buildings, including Adams Cottage on Kings Lane — a pair of former cottages now combined into one home and traditionally linked to the family of John Adams, the second President of the United States.
Completion of the Flore Bypass has significantly reduced through-traffic, allowing the village to regain a quieter, more peaceful atmosphere.
Flore is an appealing choice for families and commuters alike, offering a rural setting with convenient access to Northampton, Daventry and the M1 motorway, making regional and national travel straightforward.
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.
If you are seeking a reliable, well-managed lettings service with clear professional oversight, please contact us to discuss how we can help.

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.

Historic Carpenters’ Marks Found at a Georgian Mill House, Brackley
While surveying a late eighteenth-century mill house in Brackley, we uncovered original carpenters’ marks on the roof trusses — Roman numerals cut into the oak that reveal how Georgian roof frames were set out, assembled, and raised with remarkable accuracy.
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.
The Return of the HIP?
The Home Information Pack was scrapped over a decade ago, widely dismissed as ineffective and bureaucratic. But with property transactions still plagued by delays and fall-throughs, is it time to revisit the idea — and this time, get it right?
