During a time of economic and political uncertainty, it is understandable that people are more hesitant to begin their buying and selling journey.
Despite this, the Edgeley property market has been flourishing. Buyer enquiries and viewing figures are strong and the property market remains healthy.
Let’s take a look at why Edgeley has become so desirable to buyers during April.
The Edgeley property market has exploded in recent years due to its close proximity to Stockport town centre and its fantastic transport links to Manchester. Stockport train station provides direct links to Manchester and the North West, as well as the M60 motorway network and bus routes.
Stockport town centre provides residents with a wealth of convenient amenities such as Merseyway Shopping Centre, supermarkets, leisure facilities, restaurants and bars. For families, reputable schools for children of all ages are nearby, such as the Ofsted-rated ‘Outstanding’ Alexandra Park Primary School.
Due to this, the area has become highly desirable to a wide range of buyers, particularly first-time buyers and professionals who need to commute. The abundance of terraced and semi-detached properties available further increases its desirability.
Currently, we have a healthy level of movement within the Edgeley property market. Buyers are moving into the area from central Manchester due to its affordability and transport links, while further along the chain, families are choosing to stay and upsize due to the wide range of Outstanding/Good schools.

The average sale price for properties in Edgeley over the past 12 months is £230.646, which is a 7% increase in annual sales prices and a 37% rise in sales prices over the past 5 years**.
Nationally, the speed at which house prices have been rising is slowing down and with the turbulent state of international politics, the future is looking uncertain. Despite this, the Edgeley property market is booming. Demand is high for homes priced under £300K, with these generating multiple viewing enquiries and offers. The condition of the property doesn’t appear to have much impact on the level of interest it garners.
To accommodate the high level of demand, our pricing strategies tend to remain competitive to reflect the market. Our expert valuers favour a realistic approach with an ‘offers over’ strategy to achieve the best outcome for the vendors.
The overall message we have for prospective sellers is that now is the time to do so! The market is hot and spring is historically when we see the highest level of activity. With the future looking so uncertain, now is the time to sell.
We have a plethora of exciting success stories this month, and it’s no surprise after we’ve sold 22.9% of the market within Edgeley*.
