Jamie Roden

Director

I have worked in the Estate agency/property industry for well over a decade now. As Strada Estates’ valuer my main aim is to get our clients the best possible price for their property.

I take great pride in the reputation we have built at Strada over the last 10 years and continue to work hard to maintain those 5* standards.

I live locally with my wife Hannah and daughter Harper. In my spare time I enjoy going for meals, going for walks, doing renovations on my property and My favorite holiday spot is Italy which I hope to visit again very soon.

Sharon Macaulay

Founder-

Director

Having started out in the industry straight from School in 1996, I have been very fortunate to work alongside many like minded and reputable business colleagues who have reconfirmed my beliefs that integrity is very important.

My ethos in life is to treat people how I would like to be treated and this is exactly how I conduct myself in business.

I live locally with my partner Robert, we have a beautiful daughter called Robyn who has recently graduated university and works in London as a trauma Nurse, we are extremely proud of her working through the pandemic on the front line.  We have two adorable dogs, Nacho & Hugo and we also have a lovable cat called George.

There is nothing I enjoy more than visiting my friends and family and of course I like to partake in a well deserved glass of vino!

Jessica Mountain

Property Consultant

I became a lettings apprentice in 2018, and quickly realised my passion for all things property. Since completing a variety of courses and qualifications, I have progressed to a position as a property manager responsible for all aspects of the lettings process. Having expanded into the sales side of the industry, I now divide my time between lettings and sales. Having experience and knowledge on both sides of the industry provides my landlords and vendors with a wealth of knowledge and expertise in a sector that overlaps very frequently.As a countryside girl, my hobbies include spending time with my horse, going on walks with my dog, and enjoying idyllic pub lunches with my friends and family.
