Make your next move your last move with these new build developments near Leeds…
House hunting? Open to commuting for the right home? You’re in luck, because these new build developments are all within easy reach of Leeds. You could swap city life for village life, move into a bustling market town or escape to the countryside for a spot of post-work R&R. But first, you have to choose your new home – and with so many options on the table, that might not be as easy as you think. Have a look and see what takes your fancy.
Highfield Manor, Fixby
If location is important, Highfield Manor will be a real contender. It’s the best of both worlds – you’ll have all the amenities of a bustling market town, as well as easy access to nature spots like Honley Woods and Digley Reservoir. This is a popular Huddersfield suburb, surrounded by the glorious Yorkshire countryside, but the bright lights of Leeds are just 40 minutes away.
This new build development comes from Harron, which means every home comes with an industry-recognised NHBC warranty and insurance Buildmark 10-year warranty. They have oodles of different layouts for you to choose from, all with four or five bedrooms, all designed to cater for modern lifestyles. That means you can get separate utility rooms and studies, integrated two-car garages, built-in storage and up to three bathrooms.

The local schools are OFSTED-rated ‘Good’, so it’s great for families, and commuting is easy because it’s just 14 minutes from Wakefield and 20 minutes from Leeds.
Barrett Homes has created a new neighbourhood of three and four bedroom homes. They’re modern, energy efficient and designed for living – which means you have lots of options. You can have a vast open-plan living space that curves around the ground floor or keep your rooms blissfully separate. Either way, you’ll have that step out onto the private garden. And upstairs? Bedrooms galore with bathrooms aplenty and always a master ensuite.

It’s just a 30-minute commute to Leeds.
Strata’s Rhythm development has three styles of home. The Bologna promises an open-plan kitchen diner and separate lounge, with four beds and two bathrooms upstairs. Venice is similar, but boasts an integrated garage. Meanwhile, Oporto offers a similar layout downstairs, with three beds across the first floor and a master suite on the second. Whichever you choose, you can make it your own with a host of personalisation options.

You’ll find schools, supermarkets, pubs and restaurants, all within walking distance.
