Why Move to Bingley?
Bingley is being billed as the new alternative to Yorkshire’s traditional ‘golden triangle’ a geographic section of prosperity between Leeds, Harrogate and York.
Surrounded by the beautiful Yorkshire countryside, with the moors not too far away, Bingley is a charming and ideally situated market town in the Aire Valley which connects Merseyside with Yorkshire via the Leeds-Liverpool canal:
Bingley appears in a list of Britain’s top ten commuter hotspots — the larger city of Bradford can be reached in just 14 minutes and Leeds in 18. Leeds Bradford International Airport is located 10 miles from the city centre.
The wild beauty of the Bronte Country is on Bingley’s doorstep which can be taken in on an iconic steam train journey through the heart of the west Pennines.
The town centre is a bustling hub of activity with plenty to see and do, including some historic inns, cafes and specialist artisan shops.
The Bingley Arts Centre houses the Bingley Little Theatre which regularly host amateur dramatics as well as Gilbert and Sullivan and other musical events.
Bingley’s house prices may be rising but are still well below other fashionable areas such as Ilkley and Harrogate.
