9 Cathedral Lane, Truro, TR1 2QS

Independent, Professional Estate Agents in Cornwall

Established in 1986, Philip Martin is an independent estate and letting agency providing professional property advice across mid and west Cornwall, with offices in Truro and St Mawes.

We act for sellers of a wide range of quality property, from city and village homes to coastal and rural houses, offering clear, considered advice tailored to each individual instruction and market condition.

We believe an estate agent’s role is not simply to market property, but to advise, guide and negotiate effectively in order to achieve the best possible outcome. Philip Martin is led by RICS-qualified partners, supported by an experienced local team with detailed knowledge of Cornwall’s highly localised property markets. This professional grounding allows us to provide measured advice on pricing, presentation and strategy from the outset.

Our Truro sales office, located directly opposite the cathedral in Cathedral Lane, and our St Mawes office on the Roseland Peninsula ensure excellent local visibility and access to buyers. All properties are marketed jointly from both offices, providing strong local exposure combined with wider regional reach.

In addition to residential sales and lettings, we offer professional valuations and advice relating to probate and estate matters, taxation and insurance, divorce and litigation, as well as planning considerations and development potential. This breadth of expertise is particularly valuable for higher-value, coastal and more complex property transactions.

Philip Martin is a long-established independent Cornish agency, known for a calm, professional and strategic approach. Our focus is on providing clear advice, maintaining high professional standards and achieving the best possible result for our clients.
