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 Hazel Grove 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 Hazel Grove has become so desirable to buyers during April.
Hazel Grove is a highly sought-after borough of Stockport within Greater Manchester. The village is popular due to its close proximity to Manchester and Stockport, just a fifteen-minute drive from Stockport Town Centre. It offers residence with an abundance of excellent local amenities, including reputable schools, shops, leisure facilities and Stepping Hill Hospital. Transport links are readily available via bus routes and Hazel Grove train station.
Consequently, the area attracts a wide range of buyers from first-time buyers and onward movers to downsizers. The variety of property types available further enhances its desirability.
At present, we are experiencing a healthy level of movement in the Hazel Grove property market. Buyers are relocating further afield due to the area’s affordability in comparison to central Manchester. As was the case last month, there is a strong first-time buyer presence within the property market. Hazel Grove is also popular with families due to its reputable schools, such as St Peter’s Catholic and Hazel Grove High School.
However, due to the area’s popularity, the stock available on the market isn’t meeting the high buyer demand.

The average sale price for properties in Hazel Grove over the past 12 months is £264.609, which is a 3% increase in annual sales prices and a 30% 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 Hazel Grove property market is flourishing. The popularity of the area and demand for a wide range of stock continue to drive property prices up.
Most properties priced between £250K – £350K are selling well, however, anything over £500k requires a more sensitive pricing strategy. To accommodate this, our expert valuers advertise houses at realistic and competitive prices to generate high volumes of activity and multiple offers, which in turn is pushing the selling prices up.
Our message to prospective sellers is clear: now is the time to act. 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 15.9% of the market within Hazel Grove*.
This month, our Hazel Grove team successfully built a chain, which resulted in the sale of four properties, all of which were on the market with us. After taking a property on Charnwood Crescent from another agent, we secured two offers for the asking price after only three viewings. The buyer was already a vendor of ours with a property on Penrhyn Crescent. We sold their home to a first-time buyer. The vendors of Charnwood found an onward buyer with us on Denbigh Close, and due to this sale, the vendors of Denbigh Close could secure their dream home, which is another property on the market with us on Bean Leach Drive.
This success is due to the unique setup, which places an expert at each stage of the selling journey. This structure allows our sales negotiators to solely focus on finding you the right buyer, whether that be through liaising with other branches, assessing our bank of pre-qualified hot buyers or building chains internally to reduce the risk of fall-throughs.
Situated within a desirable residential area of Hazel Grove, this expansive four-bedroom detached property is a dream family home. Standing on a substantial private plot boasting an extensive lawned garden, the home offers impressive accommodation tailored to the needs of a growing family.
Internally, the home benefits from two reception rooms, an attractively fitted kitchen, a bright conservatory which serves as a third reception area, as well as three good-sized bedrooms and two modern bathrooms.
