Zoe Napier Zoe Napier MNAEA - Associate Partner
Zoe Napier

Zoe Napier has over 20 years agency experience, having started work in the building/construction industry.  Owner of horses, enjoys the countryside, husband and dogs!  Zoe was born in the Chelmsford area and has spent her life in Essex, now residing near Halstead on the Essex/Suffolk borders.  She also has a PPL and enjoys flying single engine aircraft whenever time allows.  “Seeing Essex from the air can be quite spectacular” commented Zoe.  “You would be surprised as to the number of ‘pilots’ searching for property with land in order to keep their plane at home!  We can even help these buyers too, as we know their runway, distance and compass requirements for an airstrip!”

Zoe Napier David Sherwood MRICS  -   Partner - Country Homes
David Sherwood, Country Homes

David Sherwood is an experienced agent specialising in the sale of Country Homes.  David has been brought up with horses all his life.  His late father, Nat Sherwood, was a keen point-to-point enthusiast and was responsible for creating Marks Tey racecourse – now attracting record crowds during the point-to-point season.  David’s two brothers, Oliver and Simon, both work with horses - many will recall Desert Orchid’s resounding win in the 1989 Gold Cup with Simon Sherwood on board.  Simon now trains race horses and is involved in bloodstock near Hereford.  Brother Oliver trains steeplechasers out of Lambourne.  This could explain why David nowadays prefers to keep ‘his feet firmly on the ground’ by enjoying his own favourite pastime and travelling to the best rivers in the UK (and abroad) to fish!
