Description
Created by Stonebridge Homes, The Drive has been designed and built for those seeking somewhere special to put down roots. You see, as one of Yorkshire’s finest builders, we understand that a home is more than just bricks and mortar. It is somewhere where families come together and blossom. This is why we take time to consider every element of every property we build.
From handpicking its idyllic location, to designing its generously proportioned layout, to choosing its high specifications throughout, we work towards one aim – to give you somewhere that has everything you’re looking for and so much more. After all, we understand that the way you live is every bit as important as to where you live.
The Drive is the perfect example of our dedication to home building. Every property has been created to fit your lifestyle and give you only the very best in contemporary living. They are homes that let you flourish.
When it comes to location, The Drive simply couldn’t be better placed. Nestled on the edge of Bingley it places you in the ideal spot to enjoy the very best of both the Yorkshire countryside and the delights of this picturesque market town.
Specification
Before you even step out of your car, you can enjoy the luxury of your own integral garage with a remote control door that opens and closes at the push of a button. Then, once inside, you can start to appreciate the benefits of a home which offers fine fixtures and fittings throughout.
As the hub of modern family living, the kitchen is where it all happens – and here at The Drive, it happens in style, thanks to the highest specifications throughout, including quality fitted appliances and energy efficient lighting fitted as standard. Not forgetting, on most plots, an ever-handy separate utility space and impressive bi-fold doors leading onto the back garden.
Every bit as impressive is the spacious open plan lounge and dining room overlooking the garden to the rear. Light and airy, this is flooded with light from large windows and is the ideal spot for entertaining or simply sitting back, relaxing and enjoying some time with the kids.
Each of our houses also features their own luxury en-suite and most with a double shower to guarantee that there is never a queue in the morning.
Just as important as what you can see, is what you can’t see. Every property is designed to take advantage of the latest technology and building techniques to help lower your bills and reduce your carbon footprint.
Leisure facilities
With the Leeds Liverpool Canal just around the corner you are just a short stroll away from Bingley Five Rise Locks, the steepest flight of locks in the UK and still used today by canal boats. Even closer, is idyllic countryside just waiting to be discovered, whether walking, cycling or riding.
For leisure, Bingley once again can’t help but impress. It boasts the area’s famous Myrtle Park, which as well as offering fishing, bowling and tennis, is also host every year to the Bingley Show and the hugely popular Bingley Music Live Festival. In addition to this, there is Bingley Little Theatre, home to one of Yorkshire’s most successful amateur theatre groups.
For the more athletic, there is a wealth of different sports clubs and activities in and around Bingley with something for everyone, no matter what their age or ability. There is even the town’s own swimming pool with sauna and solarium suites for you to enjoy.
