Moving To Slaithwaite In West Yorkshire Is A Great Idea

Mon 01 May 2023

The Great British Life website has an article called “Why You Should Move To Slaithwaite in West Yorkshire”, and Yorkshire Bylines features the location heavily in an article called “Norky’s ramblings: Slawit/Slaithwaite – the best place to live in the North?

Of course, the articles follow from the Sunday Times naming Slaithwaite as the best place to live in the North and North East in their 2022 location overview.

These platforms hail Slaithwate as a fantastic place to live, with the Sunday Times celebrating it as a “near perfect place to pursue post-pandemic happiness”. We fully agree, and as locals, we are delighted to see other people speak so highly of the local area.

With so many people speaking positively of the area, there is a need to turn to a skilled and experienced estate agent. ADM Residential is here to help you because we know and care about the local area and the Slaithwaite housing market.
