Chesterfield named UK housing hotspot
Research by Sell House Fast has identified Chesterfield as a standout location to live.
The top locations, including Chesterfield, stood out for their affordability, transport and connectivity, local amenities and quality of life.
The research analysed towns across England and located close to major cities including London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds and Sheffield.
Sell House Fast stated that “with low crime rates, strong school ratings, and an abundance of independent cafes and restaurants, these areas are ideal for families, first-time buyers, and young professionals.”
Chesterfield has also recently been named in a list of Britain’s happiest places to live by national newspaper, The Guardian. They stated, “Chesterfield sits on the edge of the Peak District and is home to one of the oldest open-air markets in England, as well as historic medieval alleyways, churches, museums and grand old buildings. Its blend of urban and rural access (being just a short journey from both the Peak District national park, and Sheffield and Derby) makes it a popular place to live.”
The town also retained its spot as the happiest place to live in the East Midlands in the Rightmove Happy at Home index.
Destination Chesterfield Board Member, Ryan Wilkes, said: “If you’re looking to live in an area which blends a strong heritage with strong local amenities within easy reach, Chesterfield is a place that you’ll be proud to call home.”
