Laxton Properties (Berkhamsted) Ltd

Laxton Properties is an independent property development company run by Chartered Surveyors Giles Holder and Ed Whetham. Focused on Quality, Sustainability and Legacy, they undertake small and medium scale developments within the northern Home Counties, with a particular focus on Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire and Oxfordshire. Their approach is informed by a set of core principles, and they work with a small team and a trusted group of local sub-contractors who share their commitment to quality.

In addition to their professional qualifications, Giles studied Engineering at Bristol University and Ed studied Geography at Oxford University. Both have strong links to the area where the business is based, believing this local focus, combined with a professional attitude and experience, sets Laxton Properties apart. They also direct Horstonbridge Development Management, which provides Development Management and Project Management services for clients on larger scale and complex development projects.

Laxton Properties works closely with landowners to maximise the potential of their land in terms of value, quality, and legacy. They offer clear and transparent communication, flexible deal structures, and aim to provide attractive and sustainable homes in well-landscaped settings, creating a 'triple win' for the landowner, community, and new homeowner. They engage closely with the community through public consultations and aim to deliver tangible gains for local communities.
