Bio

I’m Tom, a Partner at Hortons with over a decade of experience selling homes across Rutland and East Leicestershire. I combine calm, honest advice, strong local knowledge, and creative marketing to make your move feel clear, well-supported, and in safe hands from start to finish.

I started my property career in 2013 after working in hospitality, where I learned the value of listening, communicating clearly and looking after people properly. Those principles remain central to how I work. Clients often describe me as approachable and helpful—always on hand to explain things and make what can feel like a complex process more straightforward.

I have lived in Rutland since 2008 and am proud to call it home. I work across Rutland, including Uppingham, as well as East Leicestershire, covering areas such as Scraptoft, Bushby and Thurnby. Knowing these communities gives me a practical understanding of what buyers value, how homes should be positioned and what makes each area special.

Marketing With Creativity

A home deserves more than a standard listing. I enjoy the creative side of property marketing, particularly photography, social media and finding the right way to show a home’s character. My aim is to create marketing that is polished but authentic—helping buyers understand not only the property itself, but the lifestyle it can offer.

A Personal, Honest Service

I became a personal agent because I wanted the freedom to put clients first, rather than focus on targets or transactions. You will deal directly with me from our first conversation through to completion, with clear advice and considered guidance throughout. I genuinely enjoy the journey with my clients and take pride in being someone they can trust and rely on.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Tom Sturton at Hortons Estate Agents, and I cannot recommend him highly enough! From the very first interaction, Tom displayed a level of professionalism and dedication that truly set him apart from others in the industry. Tom took the time to understand my needs and preferences, guiding me through the entire process with exceptional patience and expertise. His knowledge of the local market is impressive, and he provided valuable insights that helped me make informed decisions. What I appreciated most was Tom’s responsiveness and proactive approach. No question was too small, and he was always just a phone call or email away, ready to assist and offer reassurance. It was evident that he genuinely cared about helping me find the perfect home.

My wife and I instructed Tom Sturton to act for us on the sale of a house near Leicester following a bereavement. We cannot speak highly enough of the service Tom provided. We found Tom to have valuable local knowledge, and throughout to be immensely helpful, resourceful, cheerful and diligent. Everything was attended to with impressive promptness, and Tom always seemed to be available when needed. In our experience Tom is the consummate professional, and we will continue to be grateful to him.
