The espresso beans are sourced from Monmouth Coffee Company who have an excellent policy of sustainable trading and where possible the ingredients used are organic and the packaging is biodegradeable. Over the last three years we have traded at markets, festivals and events all over London and the UK. Bean and Gone was started in 2006.

    Visit Sandfords on Paddington Street to try your luck at winning a prize and helping raise money for a fantastic cause.

    Our main objective at Sandfords is to provide you with great service.

    If you are looking to buy or rent a home in North West or Central London, be it a pied-à-terre or perhaps something much grander, we’re here to help. With our specialist knowledge, your search for a new home will be easy and hassle free. Our experienced and professional staff will be able to show you a unique selection of houses and apartments
    in throughout Marylebone , Regent's Park and the West End.

    As many properties in central London are sold or let prior to even coming on the market we naturally also have an extensive selection of ‘off market’ properties for your consideration.

    Making the process of selling and letting your property as easy as possible is what we do best. From taking a full brief, giving an initial valuation and organising a Home Information Pack, to the implementation of a comprehensive
    marketing campaign, inclusive of direct mail, national press and magazine advertising, our aim is to get your property seen by the right people. With a huge list of registered national and international buyers and an award winning website the right people are never far away.

    Since we first opened our doors in 1985 we’ve been impressing our customers with the very best service. We look forward to the opportunity of doing the same for you.
     

 

 There is something for all the family so do come along and see what's on offer!
