Measham
A charming and well-connected village, Measham offers superb transport links, with the M42 nearby and East Midlands Airport just under 13 miles away—making it an excellent choice for commuters and families alike.
Families are particularly drawn to the area due to its two primary schools and its inclusion in the Ibstock Grammar catchment area. The village takes its name from the River Mease and has grown into a thriving, close-knit community.
Residents benefit from a range of local amenities, including cafés, two public houses, an excellent doctor’s surgery, library, dentist, pharmacy, and a leisure centre. Daily essentials are easily covered with both a Tesco Express and a Co-op Local nearby.
Note: As with any property purchase in a former or current coalmining area, buyers are strongly advised to carry out a coal mining search.
