Hardy Estate Agents is a highly professional estate agency based in South Dorset and The Purbecks.

Staffed by individuals with many years of property experience, we have developed an extensive knowledge of the local and regional property market enabling us to offer a wide-ranging service that is both friendly and professional as befits our reputation as a firm and individually. We are committed to providing everybody who comes into contact with us with an individual and high quality service based on our local knowledge and professional background.

Hardy Estate Agents offer a wide range of property related services for customers and clients which includes Residential Sales and Lettings, Property and General Auctions, Farms and Equestrian Property Sales, Land and Property Search and Acquisition.

Based in the heart of South Dorset we cover a wide area which includes The Isle of Purbeck and Jurassic Coastline to the East and further inland to the Somerset border in the West and The Blackmore Vale to the North.  Hardy Estate Agents are proud of the diverse and beautiful area they operate in, with its jagged coastline and rolling valleys and fascinating history. 

More specifically, Hardy Estate Agents are conveniently located in Wool which is a logical choice for a rural estate agency business covering South Dorset and Purbeck. Being both a large and growing village Wool has a great community spirit and is also strategically well positioned to service such a wide area. The office itself is located in the old Unigate dairy by the railway crossing and is impossible to miss, especially when the gates are down! The office window looks across the water meadow over The River Frome to Wool Bridge and Woolbridge Manor described by Thomas Hardy in Tess of the d'Urbervilles as Wellbridge House.

Our marketing coverage is second to none and not only do we advertise in the The Dorset Evening Echo and The Swanage, The Bournemouth Echo and Swanage and Wareham Advertiser we can also cover regional newspapers in the greater area including The Blackmore Vale Magazine and The Western Gazette.

Internet coverage provides the strongest local, regional and national coverage and ours is second to none focusing on Rightmove.co.uk and Primelocation.com. Hardy Estate Agents properties also appear on Propertylive.co.uk the website for members of The National Association of Estate Agents and Globrix.com the property search engine launched in 2008 by News International as a challenge to Rightmove.co.uk..

Company Director David Chalstrey says ‘We aim to provide good personal service combined with excellent local knowledge to serve our clients interests properly and to assist our buyers and tenants to the best of our ability.’ David believes that professionally qualified and experienced local independents offer excellent value for money when compared to the larger corporate.

‘ In a world that leans progressively towards more limited information and impersonal delivery we aim to provide as much detail as possible to allow people to make a more informed choice, put simply traditional service using modern methods which is reflected by our branding.’

Hardy Estate Agents is owned and operated by David Chalstrey, a fellow of The National Association of Estate Agents with a Diploma in Surveying from The College of Estate Management. David has dealt with a wide variety of property transactions both in the town and countryside over many years and believes that a successful business should be underpinned by integrity, professionalism and a good sense of community.
