GoogleWe used Abbey properties to sell our local probate property. Mervyn’s valuation was not the highest but we felt it was an honest and the most realistic we had received. As a result we went with Abbey and haven’t regretted it. Mervyn advised us on the best time to put the house on the market rather than asap ( just before Christmas). When it did go on the market we quickly got viewings and a buyer. Through out the process Mervyn and Amy kept us informed of any developments and feedback from any viewings. We did have some issues with the sale and Mervyn went over and above to ensure the negotiations were settled with a satisfactory result for both us and the buyer. I would happily recommend Abbey properties and would definitely use them again should the need arise.

GoogleIt surely must be a challenge dealing with the wayardness of the house viewing public nonetheless all the team at Abbey Properties ~ Mervyn and Amy ~ did not fail us. The house buying process is not quick and there are many frustrations all round along the way, so they are to be congratulated on their continued optimism and extremely halpful support from day 1 to day 181. Fully recommended. Thank You, Jon

GoogleWe had an excellent experience with Abbey Properties and having the office in the heart of the village was very helpful. Mervyn's knowledge of the local market was evident from our first meeting. He and Amy were very responsive and good at keeping all three of us in touch with what was going on. In spite of the property market being unpredictable they made the whole process as straightforward as possible.

GoogleSo glad we went with Abbey Properties to sell our house. We wanted to support local business and we were rewarded with excellent personalised service from a friendly and professional team. Estate agents can get a bad wrap, but Mervyn and his colleagues don't live up to the stereotype - they're personable and professional.
We felt we got good advice from an agent with excellent local knowledge, who were able to advocate for us where necessary and treat all parties fairly. In order to get the property we wanted, we had to pause our sale for a while, but this caused no issues and meant we were able to achieve our dreams.
We're happy where we are but if we move again, we'll definitely sell with Abbey again.

GoogleAbbey properties did a great job of the marketing and sale of my mother's house. The house was sold very quickly and efficiently. Mervyn and Amy are always helpful, friendly and approachable.

GoogleI would highly recommend Mervyn of Abbey Properties estate agents in Eynsham, who guided me through the sale of my home from start to finish.
Abbey Properties sold me my house 22 years ago in 2004, so it made sense to use them again when it came to selling it in 2026.
Mervyn's advice on pricing was realistic, honest and based on a genuine understanding of the local market. What really stood out to me was that he didn’t try to inflate the asking price simply to win my business. He gave me straightforward advice from the outset, even when it wasn’t necessarily the easiest thing to hear.
He was also incredibly supportive when the sale reached some potentially difficult moments, particularly when the surveys raised issues and we had to navigate price negotiations. He handled everything calmly and professionally, helping me through what could have been a very stressful part of the process.
What I appreciated most was his authenticity. There was no unnecessary salesmanship or flamboyance, just honest advice, good communication and a genuine commitment to getting the sale through.
Selling a home can be a stressful experience, but I trusted Mervyn all the way through the process. I felt I was in very safe hands throughout, and I am extremely grateful for the guidance and support I received.
If you are after a honest and realistic approach from your estate agent, without hesitation, I would recommend Mervyn and Abbey Properties to assist in selling your house.

View Agents SellerDifficult property sold in super short time!
I tried to sell a one-of-a-kind property in Eynsham, a 5 bedroom converted Church with another local agent, and was forced to give up after no offers in over a year! Tried again with Abbey Properties. Mervyn suggested the right price and techniques. Five viewings in the first 2 weeks leading to an offer at the asking price. I should have used Abbey Properties in the first place! The whole transaction was completed efficiently and remotely, since I am living outside the country. Mervyn's local knowledge is absolutely outstanding. Don't mess around like I did, go to Abbey Properties FIRST!

GoogleReview of Property Management Agent: Nicky Scales
A heartfelt thank you for outstanding support and professionalism
We have recently experienced an incredibly stressful period as landlords, spanning the last six months. Unfortunately, our tenant failed to pay rent, which led us to instruct solicitors to resolve the matter. Although the tenant has now vacated the property, they left the house in a truly appalling condition, one which was deeply distressing to deal with.
Throughout this entire ordeal, our property management agent, Nicky Scales, has been nothing short of wonderful. Navigating the complexities of property law and tenant disputes can be overwhelming, but Nicky’s guidance made all the difference. She was always professional, patient, and exceptionally kind, gently leading us through every step and ensuring we felt supported and understood.
Nicky’s expertise and dedication have been invaluable. She handled each challenge with remarkable composure and empathy, providing clear advice and reassurance when we needed it most. Her communication was prompt and thorough, making a daunting process far more manageable. We are truly grateful for her hard work and unwavering commitment to us.
We wholeheartedly recommend Nicky Scales to anyone seeking a trustworthy and compassionate property management agent. Her professionalism and genuine care set her apart, and we feel very fortunate to have had her in our corner during such a difficult time.

GoogleYou couldn't ask for anything more from Mervyn and the team at Abbey Properties. Excellent communication, sage advice based on expert knowledge of the local market, and bags of experience with supporting any and all queries from sale to completion. When I reviewed them a few years ago, I said I wouldn't consider any other agent. When the need to move arose again, I stayed true to it and could not be happier that I did. Having worked with them for sale and purchase, I can confidently say they are the best estate agency I have dealt with by a country mile.

GoogleMervyn and Amy did a fantastic job helping us buy our dream house near Bampton.
The property was a renovation project with lots of potential, and they supported us at every step. They helped us negotiate a fair price and communicated efficiently with the seller regarding various issues raised during multiple surveys. They also kept the sale on track while the grant of probate was pending. Agents were very accommodating with multiple visits from surveyors, tradespeople, and our architect, even helping to move items to the driveway before completion day.
We would highly recommend them!
