PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour.

Thanks for all the fantastic replies, we've looked at these areas for houses and found a few options to look at!
Still really like Yeadon but seems out of our price range, at the moment one in Morley and one in Gildersome are taking our fancy0 -
Bingley, Eldwick (village on the outskirts of Bingley), Menston, Otley.
Skipton and Ilkley aren't a million miles away, and really pleasant (Ilkley is like a miniature Harrogate, complete with Betty's Tearoom!) - but house prices are correspondingly higher.No longer a spouse, or trailing, but MSE won't allow me to change my username...0 -
I lived in Stanley, Wakefield (north of Wakefield) and that is a nice area. Plus less than 2 miles from the M62 and 2.5 miles from the M1. The shops area down Lake Lock Road still looks villagey.
Had a quick look on RM and you can get a 4 bed detached with £200k! Your 3 bed semi is around £140k-170k.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -

Good suggestions, I'd add Lightcliffe and Norwood Green to the list too.0 -
Is anyone else reading these place names to themselves in a Yorkshire accent?0
