Area Feature
Yeading is a laid-back and peaceful residential area situated north-east of Hayes and is one of the most up-and-coming areas of the capital.
While more central regions become plagued by rising inflation and highly expensive rents, Yeading has turned into a truly coveted area for people looking for more affordable living in an accessible region.
With the town spreading from Harrow to the Grand Union Canal, there is a variety of housing available for property hunters to look for. Whether you’re looking for a one-bedroom flat or a spacious family home, there are plenty of options to choose from in an area offering superior value for money than other regions in the capital.
History
Yeading Brook’s history dates back centuries. Originally known as Geddinges, it was the smallest hamlet in the manor.
More properties were built into the 21st century wherever space was available as the capital aimed to meet demand for properties. This brings us to the current day, with Yeading emerging as a fantastic area for London families who want to avoid the high prices seen elsewhere in the capital.
Culture and attractions
Although Yeading is away from the thrills of Central London, there are several excellent attractions in the area for people in a wide range of demographics.
Whether you are looking for a day out with the kids, or a relaxing spot to take in the local nature and wildlife, there is a wide variety of options available. If you want a family day out, look no further than Dinosaur Escape Adventure Golf in nearby Northolt, while Osterley Park and House is a fantastic alternative for those looking for a place to chill.
There are a number of great museums in the area, too, including the London Motor Museum. It is just two miles away from Yeading and features a stunning collection of the world’s top vehicles.
However, as Yeading is away from all of the capital’s internationally recognised attractions, residents can look forward to a laid-back atmosphere rather than the hectic nature of Oxford Street and Leicester Square.
Travel
It is easy for residents to travel around the capital from Yeading, with Yeading/White Hart station providing easy connections across all areas of the city.
Likewise, there are many bus routes operating in the area, making it easy for people to get around regardless of whether they are using rail or bus.
Northolt, Eastcote and Harrow Weald are the three direct destinations from the underground station, with easy connections available to other regions of the city.
Housing
As already mentioned, there are excellent housing opportunities in Yeading regardless of whether you are looking to buy or rent.
One-bedroom flats and family homes are both available in abundance, and there are houses that meet high environmental standards for those looking to shave costs from their monthly bills.
As well as this, many of the properties are much cheaper than other regions of the capital and, with the cost of living on the up, Yeading offers better financial security than more well-known areas of the city.
