We’re now more than halfway through 2025, which means that many of us are starting to assess our goals for the rest of the year.
With six months of the year left to go, now is probably a good time to accelerate plans to move house if it’s been in the back of your mind for a while.
Regardless of whether you’re single, have young children or looking for somewhere to retire, the many towns and villages of Nottinghamshire have plenty to offer.
If you’re looking for a bit of inspiration, leading lifestyle website Muddy Stilettos has named its top 10 parts of Nottinghamshire to move in 2025.
The top 10 has been produced following an extensive process, during which factors including schools, pubs and shops in each area were assessed.
Hero Brown, Founder and Editor-in-Chief at Muddy Stilettos, said: “When people decide to move, they’re searching for more than just a house - they want a home, a lifestyle that works for them and their family, and if they’re strategic, a long-term investment too.
"Our 2025 ‘Top 300 Best Places To Live’ guide will give them that extra reassurance they need to make their search easier in these difficult economic times.”
