A WINCHESTER property specialist has been recognised in the prestigious Estate Gazette’s EGi Deals competition.

Regional director Ed Bellfield said: “I am delighted that the hard work and dedication of our teams has been recognised by Estates Gazette. In our specialist markets our presence throughout the UK is unrivalled and this is borne out once again with this award.”
