LIVING IN COVENTRY

Coventry, City of Culture 2021, is a wonderful vibrant place to live, work and study, with a wealth of history to be proud of. In the past some people may not have featured it on a list of places to visit, but recently that has all changed. Massive regeneration and financial investment has seen investors from outside the city eager to secure property.

Coventry and Warwickshire has a thriving local economy that’s globally recognised as a hub for engineering and manufacturing excellence. Wilsons have a broad selection of properties for sale to suit not only investors, but those wishing to make Coventry their home, and families already here.

With a fantastic midlands infrastructure, getting to and from Coventry by road rail and air is quick and easy, with London just over an hour away. We also have beautiful villages surrounding the area offering property buyers a choice of lively or leisurely living.
