Properties with land in the beautiful North Wales countryside are being snapped up by working from home city slickers freed from the office by the pandemic. That’s the evidence from a rocketing property market which has been boosted not just by the stamp duty holiday but also by lockdown changes in working practices. North Wales law firm Swayne Johnson, which has six offices across the region from Menai Bridge on Anglesey to Tattenhall, near Chester, have seen their conveyancing workload rise by 50 per cent since the first pandemic lockdown ended in July. One of the drivers of that growth has been buyers from cities who find they can get more house – and garden - for their pound in the countryside and certainly in North Wales still be within range of offices in Manchester and Liverpool for occasional visits.
