About us

Welcome to Alan Hawkins Property Sales & Residential Lettings.

Our Dad, Alan Hawkins had vast experience in the local market before his passing in 2015. Since 1983 he managed two Estate Agent offices within the town. Furthermore, before arriving in Royal Wootton Bassett, he had built up over 10 years’ experience in Swindon.

Dad left us with a legacy, and it is up to us as a family to continue this business with the same enthusiasm, passion and total commitment he always showed and delivered. 

We have proven that we continue in this vane as enthusiastically and passionately today as he did then, by being this town’s leading Estate Agent. 

We have designed a new company logo incorporating the poppy to celebrate our now 20 years in business, our deep roots within Royal Wootton Bassett, and in remembrance of our dad, Alan.

The family consists of Janet, mum (Managing Director), brothers Stephen, Paul, Kevin and Christopher, (Company Directors) with supporting staff  Emma, Rachel and Dawn complimenting the team.

In our Residential Sales Department (ground floor) you will be greeted by either Paul, Chris, Dawn or Rachel and in our Residential Lettings Department (First Floor) you will be welcomed by either Stephen, Kevin or Emma.  

Our offices are friendly and welcoming, and our clients are guaranteed service consistency on a personal basis, without the concerns of staff turnover or having to deal with staff with whom they are unfamiliar.  

As a family and close-knit business, property sales and management is not just a job to us, it’s our way of life!
