An accountant or tax adviser will be able to deal with the CGT payable on the property. Certain solicitors may do this for you but most will just deal with the conveyancing.
Depending on your husbands circumstances it may not be beneficial to transfer ownership to him - particularly if he has not lived in the property at any period of time.
Currently you will get 13/26 years tax free due to Principal Private Residence (PPR) relief. The remaining 13 years may also be exempt, up to a maximum of £40,000. You will also have indexation allowance, taper relief and your annual CGT exemption.
The CGT payable may not be all that significant compared to the sales proceeds.
