I LOVE Snowden Wilkinson – Cheadle Hulme’s Personal Estate Agents

2 Mar 2022

Snowden Wilkinson Estate Agent, Cheadle Hulme are based prominently on Station Road in the very heart of the village. They’ve been part of I Love Cheadle Hulme since the get-go, back in 2016, and said they always knew when we’d featured a property. It would go viral! That’s not the only reason why we love them, though – there are many!

Innovative Estate Agency

The perfect fusion of innovation and state-of-the-art technology coupled with traditional values and old-school service make Snowden Wilkinson different. However, what really sets them apart is the friendly, second-to-none, personal service backed up by an absolute wealth of local knowledge. That local knowledge comes from being genuinely, well, local.

The Snowden Wilkinson team know the area because they live here. Not just that, but, seventeen years since opening their doors, this family-run business now has five actual, bona-fide, Snowdens and Wilkinsons in the office. Not faceless suits hidden away in some head office, either. They’re based right here, working alongside other equally dedicated, local staff who always go the extra mile.

Snowden Wilkinson - 2022

Reputation and Recommendation

Recently, Snowden Wilkinson’s stellar reputation has ensured that their horizons have expanded beyond Cheadle Hulme, though Cheadle Hulme remains core to the business. They’ve worked as much as ever in Cheadle and Bramhall, of course, but recently find themselves heading out and about, often into Woodford and Poynton, sometimes beyond.

They’re also seeing first-time buyers looking at Edgeley, Shaw Heath and Offerton – just like we did back in the day. And it’s not just residential sales and lettings, but demand for land has shot up, too.

Above and Beyond

Just what is the secret of Snowden Wilkinson’s continued success? We’ve mentioned their innovative approach, which is certainly a big plus. They NEVER rest on their laurels but are constantly looking to improve and for new, better ways of working, which gives their vendors an edge in a competitive market. Their property photographs are superb with total attention to detail – no unmade bed or dangling wire will ever make an appearance on Snowden Wilkinson property particulars.

They were one of the first local agents to employ drone footage and tours and now have added the personal touch with presenter videos. Social media goes beyond promo – it’s utilised fully for optimum communication, too. Rob Snowden, Ian Wilkinson and the team also noticed that there are new and different selling platforms to make sure their properties are marketed to the max.

Excellence as Standard

Remember the first Omaze Million Pound House draw? The original owner of that now-famous Ramillies Avenue luxury pad chose Snowden Wilkinson to sell his house. The lucky winner, Ian from Lincolnshire, decided to stay close to family and so also instructed Snowden Wilkinson. Both instructions are quite some testament to Snowden Wilkinson and their service. Admit it, we all love looking over the details, photos and floorplans for dream homes and aspirational properties. But, as Ian says, every client gets the gold star service – it’s not some expensive added extra.

We can but dream, however, it’s the three- and four-bedroom houses which are flying. Sometimes it seems that everyone wants to live in catchment for Cheadle Hulme High School. That, or on the edge of the Ladybrook valley with easy access to open countryside yet with all mod cons – and transport links – on the doorstep. Cheadle Hulme’s newest pubs, bars, and restaurants along with brilliant indie businesses such as Pimlott’s and Waterhouse’s really do give us the best of both worlds.

Special Agent Snowden Wilkinson

Cheadle Hulme is a uniquely buoyant market. Houses are selling like the proverbial hot cakes. Nonetheless, it takes a special agent to get things just right. Snowden Wilkinson are special. Every single sale matters – they’re not some faceless, national operation. Every buyer and every seller matter, too, hence their first-class communication and the chasing beyond an agent’s obligations.

We’ve bought, sold, and rented out through Snowden Wilkinson and would do so again. It’s no surprise at all that recommendations are a huge source of business for them. We can safely say that many of those recommendations came from us and will continue to do so.
