01 — About

Gablestow is named for the steep gables of the valley's old houses — and the loft under them where families kept what mattered. We try to look after people's homes the same way.

Stay

We sell where we live. The people you buy from are your neighbours at the Saturday market.

03 — Six promises

  1. 01Every price, publishedNo “price on request.” Surveys keep finding hidden prices are the number-one search frustration — most buyers simply skip those homes.
  2. 02Verified within 72 hoursStatus, price and photos are re-checked by the listing agent at least every three days. Stale listings are the second-biggest complaint we hear.
  3. 03A floor plan on every homeAfter photos and details, buyers rate floor plans as the most useful thing a listing can carry. Ours are measured, not sketched.
  4. 04True monthly cost, upfrontMortgage, taxes, insurance and HOA in one honest number on every card — so you know what a home costs to live in, not just to buy.
  5. 05Known issues, disclosedEach listing has a “What we found” section from the pre-listing inspection. Roof age, damp corners, the lot. No surprises at survey.
  6. 06A human reply in minutesA named agent, not a call centre. Our median first reply during opening hours is seven minutes — because the first answer usually decides the deal.
