About the Business
John Daniel Wood founded the company in London in 1872 at the age of 23. The first premises of the London Estate Agents were in Mount Street, Mayfair opposite the Connaught Hotel.
He developed his practice with considerable success around the turn of the Century and after the First World War the company regularly took instructions on major houses and country estates. Properties were advertised over the entire back page of The Times and in Country Life magazine. This era included the sale of Dorchester House, Park Lane (now the Dorchester Hotel), Leeds Castle in Kent and Parham Park in Sussex.
In 1930 the company moved headquarters to Berkeley Square where the firm remained until the late 1980s. Commercial and development work became a significant part of the company's business in the 1950s and 1960s followed by an important step in the central London residential field when the Chelsea Green sales office opened in 1966.
