About Us

It speaks volumes that Luscombe Maye has been established since 1873. Since R.H Luscombe & Sons laid the foundations to the business nearly 150 years ago, neither the property market nor Luscombe Maye has stood still. What was first established as agricultural auctioneers, land and estate agents is now a thriving business operating across sales, lettings and professional services. Fully committed to providing our clients the highest possible levels of service, we have developed a strong reputation and a highly successful brand.

With a comprehensive network of offices across the West Country, our team is fundamental to everything we do. We pride ourselves on retaining the best estate and letting agents, chartered surveyors, valuers, land agents and planning consultants in the area. Our experienced professionals have an unrivalled knowledge of property and land, benefitting from being able to draw on the additional knowledge from the specialist divisions within the firm when working with our clients.

Luscombe Maye also has deep-rooted connections throughout the wider areas of Devon, Dorset and Cornwall. This love, association and knowledge of the area in which we operate is invaluable and we believe it is this fundamental principle, together with the strong interpersonal and professional skills of the individuals in our business, which set us apart.

From field to farm, waterside, country and town we are motivated to constantly exceed expectations and thrive on partnering people with property.
