Join mailing listThe residential market around Stow-on-the-Wold has been incredibly active during this current period of political uncertainty, and there have been some notable sales. Many properties are still selling privately under competitive bidding. That being said, the headline guide price needs to be realistic, and the best results are still on the turnkey properties.
We are seeing an increased number of second and investment homes being marketed, as questions arise over future tax and planning amendments, as well as the Renters Reform legislation.
Pubs and restaurants opening in the Cotswolds are always a draw to visitors and locals alike. In between our three offices is the most recent addition to ‘The Pig’ hotel group. As well as reopening Barnsley House Hotel this month, they have acquired ‘The Village Pub,’ which has also reopened to much acclaim.
