Exceptional Properties. Expertly sourced.
Independent advice for buyers.
Buying a property can be exciting, but it can also be time-consuming, competitive and difficult to judge from the outside. We make the process simpler.
CB Williams Property acts solely for buyers and for renters. We help you understand the market, find suitable homes, assess value and negotiate the right terms. Our advice is independent, practical and always focused on your best interests.
We work with UK-based clients and international buyers and families, relocating to London or the country. Every search is tailored around your lifestyle, priorities, budget and long-term plans.
How we help
We clarify your brief
We take time to understand what really matters: location, schools, transport, architecture, lifestyle, investment potential and the feeling you want from a home.
We search properly
We look beyond the obvious portals, speaking directly with agents, private sellers and trusted contacts to uncover suitable opportunities.
We assess value carefully
We look at comparable evidence, market conditions, property condition, title, layout, resale potential and any risks that could affect your decision.
We negotiate on your behalf
We help you make a strong, sensible offer and negotiate terms that protect your position while keeping the transaction moving.
We stay involved until completion
We work alongside your solicitor, surveyor, mortgage broker and other advisers to keep the process joined up and moving in the right direction.
Why independence matters
That means our advice is not influenced by sales targets, instructions or the need to push a particular property. We are here to help you buy well, or to advise you not to buy when something is not right.

London townhouse with access to garden square
Our Clients required a London home for their expanding family, in addition to their main country house and having limited knowledge of central London required extensive guidance on the best locations and the very best home achievable within their budget. We acquired a beautiful, early 19th century townhouse with stuccoed façade, on a classic garden square in South Kensington, perfect for their requirements and secured at a significant discount from the guide price.
Penthouse apartment with concierge and on site facilities for Monaco based Client
Our Client required an secure pied a terre in central London with impressive living space, a full range of on site facilities and secure parking from which he could come and go discreetly, splitting time between London and Monaco. We acquired an apartment in a prestigious development overlooking Green Park and negotiated directly with the developer to have changes made to the internal layout prior to completion in order to accommodate the exacting needs of our Client.
Country house for overseas buyer returning to the UK
Our Clients were a young family returning to the UK to raise their family on the South Coast of England having spend a significant period of time living in Asia. Based abroad during the search our Clients needed our help to identify the best opportunities in the area where they had grown up, in the South of England. After an extensive search we identified an opportunity which suited their requirements both for their new home and the children’s schooling. Following a visit from our Clients the house was agreed and we navigated a complicated sales chain, eventually completing the purchase in time for the Summer holidays.
Central London lateral apartment for downsizing Clients
Our Clients were in the process of selling a large London home and they wanted to find a property to rent in the centre of town, close to the museums, art galleries and restaurants so that they could enjoy easy access to all their favourite places, including the theatres and art galleries, as well as having the ability to entertain and reach the office for meetings. After an extensive search we secured a modern and spacious lateral apartment, located just off St James’s Square and Picadilly, in a small boutique development of only three apartments, with security and concierge, perfect for their requirements.
Pied a Terre in Chelsea for U.S Clients
Our Clients primary residence was in New York City but they had spent many years living in London and wanted a pied a terre to visit several times a year to meet friends and have family to stay. The property had to be secure as it would be unoccupied for several months of the year and most importantly it had to be in the heart of Chelsea, within walking distance to the Kings Road and the local restaurants and shops so that they could completely relax and enjoy their visits. After an extensive search we secured them a long term rental in the perfect location with 24 hour security in a beautifully redeveloped historic building, which sits within gated, landscaped grounds. Perfectly capturing all the criteria described within their brief.
London pied a terre for busy CEO
Our Client was based primarily in the countryside but needed a London base to stay in three or four nights a week and specifically with exceptional open plan entertaining space where he could host private client meetings and drinks parties. We secured a stunning apartment in the iconic Albion riverside building which was situated in a prime position in the building with perfect living space for the requirements and a river facing balcony with views over the Thames towards Chelsea.

“Charlie has been incredibly helpful throughout our journey to purchasing our first property in central London. While we had a clear idea of our lifestyle, we knew little about the London property market. Charlie's expertise and personal approach proved to be invaluable. After several rounds of searching and viewings, we gained much more clarity on the areas and types of properties we were looking for. With a more refined search and careful comparisons, we eventually narrowed our options down to one final choice. Charlie then went above and beyond, conducting deeper research and helping us prepare a strong, well-balanced offer, one that protected our interests while remaining pragmatic and considerate of the seller’s position. Our offer was quickly accepted. The transaction process had its moments, but Charlie was there for us when we needed help the most, and we deeply appreciate his support. Beyond that, Charlie also had excellent connections with professionals who provided legal, financial, and design-related advice. Thank you, Charlie!”

“We finally completed on the sale of our former property & the purchase of our new dream home thanks entirely to Charlie. We would not have got here without him. To describe him as 'a safe pair of hands' would be an understatement. He went above and beyond at every turn and was willing to help in any way he could. Cannot praise him highly enough. Having an agent of perpetual good humour whilst also being honest and warning us of the obstacles we needed to overcome was key in getting us through it.”
