Areas that boast good Ofsted-rated schools, reasonably priced homes and plenty of local amenities will often attract families to live there. Certain parts of Greater Manchester have become a hive for families over the years with their safe, friendly and thriving communities that make for a great place to find a forever home.
In the last month, Purplebricks has noticed strong buyer activity in Denton. The estate agents say that an increased number of families are looking to up sticks to the established family-friendly Tameside town due to its reputable schools, local parks and good transport links, with most wanting to move there to settle down and grow their families.
Known as a base for hat-making for more than 200 years, many residents in Denton have strong local links to the area and have lived there alongside their families for their entire lives. In recent years, the town has also become a must-visit for food and drink with an array of new, successful bar and restaurant openings.
