Destination Shropshire!
Wasn’t it satisfying to see Shropshire listed in ABTA’s 10 Destinations to Watch in 2024? Rich in history, a gastronomic paradise, beautiful countryside and a lively calendar of family activities… oh yes, we know!
At Monks, we consider ourselves ‘county connoisseurs’ and love to share our passion for the Shropshire lifestyle. We use our lived experience of local geography, history and communities to paint a picture of the properties we bring to market and add depth to the unique story behind every home.
Our team’s love of Shropshire brings a genuine touch to our service. Ask Lucinda about her outdoor adventures in the Shropshire Hills, chat to Beth about child-friendly trips to Ellesmere or ask Anne Marie for tips on dog-walking around Wem. Our roots run deep with staff born and raised the area, like Ethan in Oswestry. While others like Patricia have moved from afar to choose Shropshire as their home.
Sharing insider information with potential buyers helps sell the lifestyle of a future home. Details of a local sports club, available allotment plots, or walks with panoramic views can all inspire a connection with the property. And let’s not forget the essentials of schooling options, transport links and which pub serves the best Sunday Roast!
Shropshire is the first UK destination to appear on the ABTA list which is designed to inspire British holiday makers. This predicted wave of tourists presents a fantastic opportunity for anyone looking to invest in holiday lets, and these charming properties would all appeal to paying guests: timber-framed townhouse in Shrewsbury and a former Post Office in Ruyton Xi.
“This idyllic English county on the Welsh borders has some of the country’s most beautiful landscapes, towns and villages. Shropshire is not only a rural gem, it was also the birthplace of the industrial revolution.”
– ABTA report, January 2024.
So, whether you’re looking to settle in this stunning county or invest in a thriving tourist hotspot, Monks are here to guide you every step of the way. Our knowledge and enthusiasm are why so many customers choose Monks as their local estate agent.
