With a 200-year heritage, Cheffins is a market-leading firm of surveyors, property advisors, and auctioneers. From residential sales in Cambridge to large-scale rural estate management and international fine art auctions, we provide the 'advice worth taking' for every property journey.
Two Centuries of Property Excellence in East Anglia
We aren't just another property firm; we are a part of the fabric of the East of England. Celebrating 200 years of service, Cheffins has evolved from a local firm into a multi-disciplinary powerhouse. Whether you are selling a city-centre apartment in Cambridge, managing a sprawling rural estate, or looking to auction a vintage tractor, we bring two centuries of integrity and market insight to the table.
A Multi-Disciplinary Powerhouse
What sets us apart is our breadth. We don't just look at property in isolation; we understand the interconnectedness of land, development, and commerce. Our team operates from six regional offices, providing a local touch backed by a strategic London presence.

From Strategic Land to Fine Art
Our expertise is as diverse as the clients we serve. We have been instrumental in some of the region's most significant projects and relocations, including:
- Commercial Landmarks: Managing and leasing spaces at Granta Park, Chesterford Research Park, and Newmarket Business Park.
- Strategic Relocations: Facilitating high-profile moves, such as the Raspberry Pi relocation and projects for Sidney Sussex College.
- Rural Innovation: Leading the way in Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) and renewable energy schemes for modern landowners.
Why Clients Choose the Cheffins Way
"Advice worth taking" isn't just our tagline; it's the standard we hold ourselves to every day.
We believe in building long-term relationships. For homeowners, that means bespoke marketing strategies for new builds and period properties alike. For investors and developers, it means providing rigorous financial appraisals and navigating the complexities of local plan representations.
