Location – Wem & Transport Links
Wem is a historic market town in North Shropshire, approximately nine miles north of Shrewsbury. Known for its independent shops, cafés, weekly markets, and strong community spirit, the town blends rural charm with everyday convenience.

Transport:
Road: Close to the A49, connecting north–south to Shrewsbury and surrounding areas.
Rail: Wem Station offers services on the Shrewsbury–Crewe line with links to Shrewsbury, Crewe, Manchester, and South Wales.
Air: Manchester and Birmingham International Airports are approximately 11⁄2 hours’ drive.
The location offers a perfect balance of rural tranquillity and access to larger centres.

Planning Details
Planning Ref 24/03029/ful: Consent for a detached two-storey dwelling on the adjoining plot.
Planning Ref 24/03028/ful: Consent for a detached double garage for the existing house, not the new plot.
These permissions clearly separate the development potential of the adjoining plot from the approved garage for the current property, enhancing the site’s appeal for developers, investors, or multigenerational living.
