At henshaws we have been helping people find their ‘special place’ since 1987, and we hold a passionate commitment to the neighbourhood we serve. We have an unrivalled understanding of the local market offering a friendly and professional service and treating everyone, whether that be a client, applicant, landlord or tenant, as an individual. We have built our business on reputation by ensuring we deliver honest sound advice at all times, never chasing the quick ‘buck’. This first class service has given us an enviable standing in the community with a high level of repeat business.

Our Service & Commitment

The one thing that was at the forefront of our ethos and has remained so, is our commitment to providing a first class service whether that be sales, lettings, management or land and new homes. We are a truly independent agency, built on family values of honesty support and trust.
We purposely haven’t chased the mortgage/insurance buck. We are dedicated to the sale, letting and management of property only – it’s what we do best, it’s what we have done for most of our lives and it’s what we will continue to do! Being completely and fiercely independent gives us the flexibility to market our clients' homes in the best possible way, not being in the straightjacket of corporate decision makers.
We have all the latest gismos to help with our marketing and allows us to compete on a level playing field with ‘the big boys’ but with the certain knowledge that from start to finish whether you are selling or letting your home all aspects will be overseen by the directors and senior staff who have been with us for many years.

Meet the team

Timothy Pearce MARLA MNAEA
Director
Married to my lovely and very understanding wife Ann for 23 years (being in agency and a passion for sport she needs to be!) we have 2 grown up children and have lived and worked in the Surrey and south west London area for nearly 26 years. After working abroad for a number of years I returned to these shores in 1990 deciding on a change of direction in terms of career. With property being the chosen path I joined a large corporate organisation gaining invaluable knowledge of the South West London property market. In 1995 I joined Henshaws as a branch manager and then in 2006 and on the retirement of the previous partner took over the running of the company with my now Co-Director Andrew Halliwell. Our ethos remains the same today as it was then to provide a first class and personal service with all staff being prepared to go that extra mile to hopefully put a smile on the faces of all our clients. What I do out of work: Sport has always been my passion and in particular tennis which I have played for as long as I can remember and even though I am not quite as agile around the court as I was in my younger years I still get tremendous pleasure from the odd victory (not as many as I would like!) against the younger generation. Other sporting interests include the gym (occasionally!) and golf (even more occasionally!). Outside actually participating in sport I love nothing better than following the mighty Reds … Liverpool and my local team Woking.
Matthew Lewis
Sales Manager
I was born in Guildford, schooled and brought up in the local area until I graduated from University of Bristol with my degree in marketing. I returned back to my roots and decided to take up 2 weeks work experience at one of local estate agents and 12 years on they still have not got rid of me! Must have done something right! Having working in the construction industry during my teenage years into my early 20’s I have always found property interesting and how people adapt and change I to suit their lifestyles. So putting together my passion and understanding of building combined with my marketing background, this seems a good path for me to follow. Seeing Henshaws friendly warm and local values combined with their positive customers focus it make it a lovely environment to work in within the agency world. The ability to give a client focus approach rather than looking solely at the figures and selling secondary product enables me to treat the client as number 1. My proudest moment was winning “Personality of the year award” at the local Surrey property awards. And when I’m not at work: Out of work I enjoy swapping the green countryside for the alpine life style to enjoy the skiing but more importantly the après ski that goes with it. When am dragged back to reality and have to work to pay for this I enjoy walking my springer spaniel (Monty) round the stunning countryside we have the Surrey Hills then relaxing watching the rugby sampling a few beers.
Janet Exworthy
Senior Negotiator
My parents moved here late 50’s from Wandsworth and my sister and I grew up here having a great time. From leaving Howard of Effingham school I worked for Barclays Bank for many years in marketing, helping build local businesses and working in the private sector. Then after having my two lovely children, Emma and Michael I went back to work for Barclays twice! Glutton for punishment you might think…. In between the kids growing up I’ve been a child-minder, worked in a local junior school, progressing to a secondary school (challenging, but very interesting and rewarding) and cleaned in an office block. I started working for henshaws as a weekend sales negotiator in 1998 and in November 2010 I was able to come on board full time splitting my working week at Horsley and our Bookham office. I’m now full time at our Bookham branch and still thoroughly enjoying it! I love the buzz of meeting people, listening to their wish list and then finding them their new property. You meet all types of people so it’s never the same every day. The job can be challenging at times especially when managing a sale which might have difficulties, but it’s a great feeling when you know your input made the exchange happen. I also enjoy being invited back to a property to see what the new owner has done! And when I’m not at work: In my spare time I love seeing my kids who have flown from the nest, and meeting up with friends. Interests include theatre, after previously treading the boards with Leatherhead Operatic Society, playing the piano (I need more practise!) listening to music, gardening and garden design, travelling, enjoying the local countryside at the weekend and cooking. Oh by the way, I make a yummy coffee and walnut cake!
