Gideon Sumption of Stacks Property Search and Acquisition has been acting for private clients giving property advice in the West Country since 1990. Most clients require a combination of property search, property finder and property acquirer but usually in varying proportions.

The area that Gideon covers from this office is dominated by the geography of the Quantock Hills and Exmoor to the north and the Blackdown Hills to the south forming the valley through which the M5 and fast Paddington to Exeter railway line pass. The regional centres of Exeter and Taunton are the hub of both the educational and commercial environments of the two counties. The excellent education opportunities and unspoilt countryside are the principal attractions for most people buying homes in this area.

Gideon’s office on the Devon/Somerset border is ideally located to service the East Devon, West Somerset and West Dorset area and, having been born and based here for many years, Gideon is intimately familiar with the territory. Qualifying as a chartered surveyor in London, Gideon commenced his career in property with Hillier Parker in Grosvenor Street and then at DTZ Debenham Thorpe in Hanover Square where he became an associate partner specialising in commercial agency. 

A Chartered Surveyor by training and with a comprehensive property background, Gideon works solely for private clients locating, advising on and negotiating the purchase of properties in the region. His clients find this acquisition service can not only save them an immense amount of time but can also introduce to them properties before they become publicly available or that are being sold privately. In particular substantial financial savings can be made for clients through his unique insight and detailed knowledge of the local market.
