Thinking about buying a house near a pylon? What you need to know
Briefly

As the UK prioritizes green energy, the government plans to build thousands of miles of pylons to connect renewable power sources to the National Grid by 2030. This initiative has reignited debates over the aesthetic and health implications of pylons, particularly in rural areas. A substantial number of homes are situated near these structures, raising concerns for potential buyers regarding property values and quality of life. Experts emphasize the need for prospective homeowners to conduct thorough research and consider EMF surveys before purchasing properties close to pylons.
In understanding the impact of pylons on property values, it’s crucial to make an informed choice, balancing both the advantages of proximity and potential concerns.
The National Grid has plans for significant expansion by 2030 to integrate renewable energy sources, sparking concerns over visual and health impacts of pylons.
