    Claire Tythcott - Manager 
    I joined Chequers Estate Agents in June 2021 after working for six years at an alternative agent in Barnstaple. I was delighted to join Chequers and I am passionate about providing excellent customer experiences for all their property needs.  

    I am a determined and motivated team leader here in Barnstaple, looking to achieve the best in everything that I do and I look forward to the opportunity of working with many more homeowners, investors and first-time buyers in the future.

    Having lived in the area all of my life I have a wealth of knowledge of the County. I live on my parent's dairy and sheep farm in the Devon rolling countryside and have had my own flock of rare breed sheep for many years. In my spare time, I am a very active member of the National Federation of Young Farmers.
