Winchester Red Book Valuations
by Fallows Surveyors
One of our Valuers lives between Winchester and Petersfield, allowing us to undertake valuation visits in the area at short notice. Winchester is a particularly distinctive property market, sitting in heart of Hampshire, on the edge of the South Downs National Park and within the London commuter belt. This unique position creates strong demand for homes in the city and surrounding villages.
In Winchester and the surrounding areas, we are able to value Georgian townhouses, period terraces near the Cathedral, and modern apartments close to the station. Beyond the centre, areas such as St Cross, Fulflood and Hyde are popular for family housing, while nearby villages including Twyford, Itchen Abbas, Hursley and Kings Worthy offer a mix of listed cottages, barn conversions, and larger country houses. The proximity to the Downs also brings regular instructions for equestrian holdings, farmland and rural estates, many of which fall within conservation areas or carry planning constraints.
Our RICS-regulated surveyors provide independent Red Book valuations for a wide range of purposes including Probate, Capital Gains Tax, Inheritance Tax, matrimonial proceedings and secured lending. Whether it is a Victorian terrace in Fulflood, a cathedral-close townhouse, or farmland on the Downs near Twyford, we combine detailed local knowledge with clear, professional reporting.
Winchester Probate Valuations

Our surveyors produce independent RICS Red Book reports that meet HMRC requirements and are widely relied upon by local solicitors. From family homes and second homes to rental portfolios and farmland, we provide accurate and compliant valuations in Winchester, New Alresford, Four Marks, Whitchurch, Andover, and Stockbridge.
We are able to provide probate valuations for unusual or complex situations such as farms or portfolios. IN the case of farms, an assessment of Agricultural Property Relief is also included.
We appreciate that probate valuations are often needed at a difficult time. Our team offers a discreet and considerate service, while ensuring every report is both compliant and defensible. With long-standing experience across Hampshire, we understand the local property market and the way values can vary between different towns and villages.
Capital Gains Tax Valuations
....including historical valuations for land and property in the Horsham area
If you need a Capital Gains Tax (CGT) valuation in Winchester or anywhere in Hampshire, Fallows can help. We provide professional RICS reports that meet HMRC requirements and give you the clear evidence you need for your tax return. From single properties in Winchester to larger portfolios spread across Hampshire, our valuers offer straightforward, independent advice you can rely on.
CGT valuations often mean looking back in time — perhaps to April 1982, or to the date a property was inherited or gifted. These retrospective valuations require careful use of archived market data and sound professional judgement. At Fallows, we have the expertise to produce figures that stand up to scrutiny if HMRC ever asks questions.
We know the Winchester property market and we have assess to databases that ensure our valuations reflect real local conditions and relevant comparable sales. Combined with our adherence to RICS Red Book standards, this gives clients and their advisers the reassurance that the valuation is compliant.

Valuations for divorce/ matimonial settlements
Fallows can act as single joint experts
Fallows provide independent RICS valuations in Winchester and across Hampshire for divorce and matrimonial matters.
When a divorce involves property, both parties usually need to agree on its value. In many cases, we are appointed as Single Joint Experts (SJE), producing one neutral report that both sides can rely on.
If each party prefers to instruct their own valuer, we can also prepare a report for one side only. It’s best for both parties to decide on their chosen approach—whether that’s a joint instruction or separate reports—before making contact with any valuer. Jumping ahead too soon can sometimes create unnecessary friction.
Our fair and balanced approach helps reduce disputes and keeps discussions centred on solid, evidence-based valuations.
With many years of experience working across Hampshire, we can provide valuations on all types of homes in Winchester, New Alresford, Four Marks, Whitchurch, Andover, and Stockbridge.
