Tamworth Removals

Tamworth’s history dates as far back as the Anglo-Saxon period when the riverside town was the capital of the Mercia Kingdom. The town’s past is evident in its historic buildings including the magnificent Tamworth Castle which is one of the best examples of a Norman stronghold.

The Staffordshire market town is the second largest settlement in the county and has developed over the years as many are attracted by its property prices and transport links.

Moving to or from Tamworth could not be easier. The Britannia Bradshaw office is conveniently located in Birmingham. Britannia Bradshaw offer a range of removal services including international moves and storage solutions.

Moving to Tamworth

Whether you want to buy a period family home or trendy apartment, there is something for everybody in Tamworth. Young professionals tend to love the modern one and two bed apartments and will need a minimum budget of £125,000. Two bed terraces are also upwards of this figure and a great investment for first time buyers. The modern estates outside of the town centre tend to be where families reside and a large detached home will set buyers back upwards of £230,000.

Due to the strong commuter links Tamworth offers there is a buoyant rental market. Town centre flats start at £495 pcm, rising to £520 pcm for two bedrooms. Young families looking for some space can rent a three-bedroom house for upwards of £675 pcm but this can escalate to £1200 pcm as bedrooms increase.
