Savills has strengthened its residential presence in Cheshire with the appointment of Ellis McQueen as head of office at Savills Knutsford, where she will lead the residential sales division.
Ellis brings more than a decade of experience in the property industry and has been part of the Savills Knutsford office, which comprises residential sales and lettings teams, since it first opened its doors in 2018.
Having grown up in nearby Stockton Heath and attended school locally, Ellis has long-standing personal ties to the area and a deep understanding of the communities and market Savills serves across Cheshire.
Ellis lives locally with her husband and daughter and is deeply rooted in the community, appreciating first-hand the area’s excellent schools and fantastic lifestyle - something she enjoys helping others discover when supporting clients with their property moves.
Commenting on her appointment, Ellis said: “I’m really proud to be taking on the role of head of office in Knutsford. It’s a market I know well and genuinely care about, and having been here since the office opened in 2018, I’m excited to maximise the opportunities ahead. Knutsford continues to be a strong, desirable location with growing demand, and I see real potential to build on its success by focusing on collaboration and delivering an amazing service for our clients.”
Cameron Ewer, head of Savills residential business in the North West and Scotland, added: “Ellis is an exceptional agent whose local roots and market knowledge are invaluable. Her passion for the area, coupled with over a decade of hands-on experience within the team and her relationships with clients past and present, make her an excellent choice to lead our Knutsford office. We are delighted to see her step into this role as the office continues to go from strength to strength.”
Ellis will now lead Savills’ established residential sales team in Knutsford, continuing to support clients across Knutsford and the surrounding villages.
According to the latest research from Savills, the North West continues to be the UK’s strongest-performing region in terms of house price growth, with almost a 30% increase forecast over the next five years.
