A first time buyer with a budget of £520,000 to spend on a dream home in Shropshire found herself beaten to it in the county's red hot property market.The county around Ironbridge, Claverley, and Craven Arms was featured on a recent episode of the BBC TV series Escape to the Country when insurance professional Natalie, aged 30 from Quarry Bank, in Dudley, was looking for her first home of her own away from mum Ruth.
The show featured several local attractions including Severn Valley Steam Railway and the Cliff Railway. House-hunter Natalie fell in love with the second property they saw, a three-bed Victorian semi-detached house with stunning views of Long Mynd. With a £495,000 asking price it was well within her budget and even presenter Nicki was blown away.
The show also took the chance to interview customers who had saved the nearby Pheasant at Neenton. It was closed for almost nine years before being saved by the local community.
