Mannleys Market Update – October 2025

What’s Happening in the Property Market?

SALES


Local Developments to Watch


Big changes are reshaping East Ketley (TF1/TF2), bringing long-term confidence and energy to the local property market.

One standout project is the Telford Millennium Community, East Ketley – a masterplan of around 850 new homes alongside a new primary school, green corridors, live/work units, and retail and leisure facilities.

The first phase completed in 2007 delivered a significant number of homes and community spaces. Since then, further phases have added more housing, with a final phase of 52 apartments and 14 houses approved in 2017. While much of the development is complete, some phases are still in design and planning – meaning new homes and facilities will continue to emerge in the near future.

For local homeowners, these ongoing improvements support strong demand and healthy prices. For buyers, they signal even more choice in an already thriving area.

🎃 Events This October


Exotic BOO at the Zoo! – A Halloween-themed nighttime event at the Exotic Zoo Wildlife Park, Dawley (TF4). Trick or treat through the woods and meet spooky characters along the way.
Ironbridge Fireworks Display – The much-loved annual fireworks at Blists Hill Victorian Town (TF7).

🌳 Green Spaces & Walks


Telford Town Park (TF3 4EP) – A large urban park with gardens, woodlands, cycle paths, and play areas – great for families year-round.
The Wrekin (TF6) – The iconic hill with panoramic views; perfect for weekend hikes.

🏠 Final Thought


Telford is evolving fast, and the choice of homes for sale across TF1 to TF8 is broader than ever. From modern new-builds in Apley and Redhill to established family houses near The Wrekin or Ironbridge, there’s something for every style and budget.

With further phases of major developments still to come, demand for property will remain strong – and so will the opportunities for sellers.

LETTINGS


Local Developments to Watch


Telford is on the move, with new homes and amenities reshaping the area and boosting confidence in the local market.

Station Quarter – Telford Town Centre
This flagship regeneration project is transforming the heart of the town. It will deliver 189 new one, two and three-bed apartments and townhouses in mixed tenures (private rent, affordable rent, shared ownership). Work is already underway, with affordable homes forming part of the first phase. Just a short walk from Telford Central Station, it’s ideal for commuters and anyone looking for excellent transport links.

Ketley Point – New Food Retail Unit
Planning has been approved for a 20,000 sq ft supermarket-style store, bringing everyday essentials closer to home for local residents. For tenants in the many nearby rental properties, it means more convenience and shorter shopping trips.

Both developments underline the growing appeal of Telford for buyers, sellers and renters alike – and highlight why now is a great time to make your move.

🌳 Things to Do & Green Spaces


Apley Woods (TF1) – Woodland trails loved by locals for walking, dog walking and leisure.

Telford Millennium Nature Reserve (TF2 6DF) – Former industrial land now transformed into woodlands, ponds, streams, wildflower meadows and open heathland – with views toward the Shropshire Hills. Dogs welcome.

Tenpin Telford (Town & Southwater) – 24-lane bowling and indoor entertainment for rainy days, evenings and weekends.

🏠 Final Thoughts


Telford’s rental and sales markets continue to show strong demand, especially for well-located, quality homes across TF1 to TF8. With major developments, new amenities and outstanding green spaces, it’s no wonder more people are choosing to move here.
