    Barons Estate Agents was formed in 1988 by Kevin Penfold & Trevor Lee, with the office being opened in February of that year. That same office is still open and thriving at Winton Square in Basingstoke. Both directors started their career at large independent estate agencies in the early 1980's, working their way up the career ladder from trainees, to office managers, and finally regional managers. Along the way gaining extensive knowledge of how to deal with a range of properties, people and the ever-changing legal system.

    Kevin & Trevor met whilst working at Parkers Independent Estate Agency and developed a great working relationship. Parkers was eventually taken over by Legal & General; keen not to enter the corporate environment and all that goes with it, Kevin & Trevor hatched plans to establish a local independent estate agent that would go the extra mile for their clients. Having undertaken extensive market research, they decided that Basingstoke was the place to be.

    Starting the agency with themselves and two other employees they hit the ground running by selling their first property in Brighton Hill and haven't looked back since. Throughout the years they have witnessed ever changing market places, large property developments being built and ever-changing regulations and laws.

    At Barons Independent Estate Agents, we are passionate about property and pride ourselves on decades of successful selling in Basingstoke and the surrounding villages. Our team of negotiators are approachable, skilful and extremely knowledgeable, boasting over 75 years experience of estate agency in the Basingstoke and surrounding markets.

    Our unrivalled understanding of the area allows us to find the perfect property for customers, whether they are looking for an elegant Victorian town house or apartment in the town centre, or even a cottage in the Old Basing. We also advise on buy-to-let, investment properties or the purchase of a second home.

Testimonials from Sellers

  • Seller Testimonial

    I love Barons Estate Agents :-)
    "The service that Barons Estate Agents gave us was really excellent from beginning to end. Matt gave us a very realistic evaluation of our property, unlike some other estate agents that in order to gain you as clients exaggerate the value. Matt also took magnificent pictures of our home that helped in getting the interest of many people. Kevin and Charlie did a brilliant job at the open day looking after our house and the house was sold on the day. Trevor jumped through hoops to make exchange and completion happen. The whole team has been a great support during this very stressful process and I would not hesitate to use them again or to recommend them to friends and family. "
  • Seller Testimonial

    Couldn't ask for more
    "Fantastic agent who are experts in their field and appreciate the importance of communication to both buyer and seller. Kevin and Trevor were fantastic whilst I bought a property they were marketing. They gave me advice and guidance and they knew when it was right to update me on progress. They always called back as soon as they could and they did everything they could do help both the vendor and I. I would thoroughly recommend Barons and would definitely use them in future. "
  • Seller Testimonial

    Honest, Helpful, Reassuring, Proactive
    "First thing I loved was the none pushy approach when it came to me signing up. They told me they could get me a quick sale and they did, within 24 hours my house was sold, for more than I'd hoped. They have helped every step of the way and were always there if I had questions or if I was getting worried. When I was getting close to exchanging contracts they helped push it though to reach the competition date I wanted. I was very happy with their service from start to finish, I'd recommend them to anyone and the next time I sell or look to buy a house they will be the first people I call."
