About MAP Estate Agents, Barncoose

Gateway Business Centre, Wilson Way, Barncoose, Illogan Highway, TR15 3RQ

Selling and letting homes across West Cornwall in a very personal and modern way. Please let us put your home 'On the MAP'

The MAP team are all very experienced and well established property professionals who have helped thousands of buyers and sellers over the years across West Cornwall. Between us we have over 125 years of selling and letting homes in the region.

Since opening in 2017 the business has grown considerably mainly through recommendation. We are delighted to publish the numerous testimonials we have received online and to challenge the poor perceptions the public have about estate agents. Estate agents are not all the same!

MAP uses the latest technology including 360 degree cameras but is primarily about customer service something that is often very much lacking when selling or buying a home.

We would love to help and discuss any potential home move with clients so don't hesitate to get in touch. We offer a free, no obligation valuation service and are equally as happy speaking to you with any home moving questions you may have.

We look forward to hearing from you if we can assist in anyway.
