Located in North Shropshire, Market Drayton is a traditional Shropshire market town with origins dating back to before the Domesday Book. Modern buildings in the town centre mix with fine examples of 17th century black and white constructions. The town claims to be "home of the gingerbread", which has been produced in the town for over 200 years. Local estate agents in Market Drayton say this is an ideal area for anyone looking for a property with land. As well as the usual selection of houses for sale in Market Drayton you might expect to find, such as a mixture of period cottages, detached Edwardian country houses and modern detached executive style family homes, there are stud farms, dairy farms and small holdings.
Market Drayton doesn't just rely on its famous market for the modern shopper’s needs. The pedestrianised heart of the town provides a safe and pleasant spot for browsing and buying, alongside a selection of restaurants and pubs. You can’t get away from Thomas Telford in Shropshire - he built the Shropshire Union Canal which passes just a few hundred yards from the town centre, providing an ever changing backdrop of boats, people and wildlife. If you are considering Market Drayton property and you enjoy sport, you'll be spoilt for choice; there are eight golf courses within a dozen miles of the town centre, a Swimming Centre and the Maurice Chandler Leisure Centre at nearby Stoke Heath. There are also facilities for football and fishing, badminton, bowls and much more besides. Entertainment is provided by the Festival Drayton Centre - a multi-purpose Community Centre, with facilities including an exhibition centre, a café, an auditorium for cinema and live theatre (films are normally shown 2 or 3 days a week).
Communications are excellent - with the A53 less than a mile from Market Drayton town centre, and the M6 some 12 miles further on. By train, an Intercity rail service operates from Stafford, with direct trains into London Euston station.
