Welcome to The Mortimer & Gausden Partnership

We are Independent Estate Agents based in the beautiful market town of Bury St. Edmunds.

Since opening our doors in 2008, Mortimer & Gausden has grown into one of the area’s most trusted estate agencies. Founded by Andrew Mortimer and Ian Gausden, the business was built on a simple guiding philosophy: treat people as you would like to be treated. Their dedication, integrity and local expertise laid the foundations for our reputation.

In 2026, we entered a new phase as we became The Mortimer & Gausden Partnership. This evolution acknowledges our continued growth and, importantly, recognises the strength of our team - now all Property Partners. Working collaboratively rather than individually, each Partner brings specialist skills and experience, ensuring every client benefits from the insight and support of the whole team.

This collective approach keeps the client at the heart of everything we do. You can expect genuine advice, professional guidance and a level of service that is personal, consistent and focused on achieving the very best outcome for your move.
