Why choose a new build in Hereford?

On top of the scenery, there’s so much on offer for residents, including the draw of excellent employment opportunities, a great level of disposable income for average households, top schools for children, and access to some of Britain’s best food produce. From the famous Hereford beef and local farmyard ciders to organic goods and award-winning cheeses, there’s plenty for foodies here. All this and more is right on your doorstep if you choose a new build in Hereford.
Things to do if you buy a new home in Hereford
Although reactively compact, the city of Hereford is a fantastic place to spend your free time with lots of exciting things to see and do for those who choose to buy a home here. An iconic sight to visit is the Hereford Cathedral, instantly recognisable with its Gothic exterior. Also worth visiting is the 18th Century mansion of Berrington Hall, the Hereford Cider Museum, and the very distinctive postcard landmark of The Old House located on the High Street.
Food and drink lovers will find the centre to be filled with great bars, pubs and restaurants (including plenty of steakhouses to taste the local beef). For shopping, you won’t be disappointed either as the Old Market Shopping Centre is a hub of entertainment for residents, featuring high street names, places to eat, as well as a cinema. The Hereford Buttermarket, set within a stunning Grade II listed building, has been the best place to pick up regional produce since 1860.
Although house prices can be high in this part of the West Midlands, there are some wonderful and affordable new builds Hereford has to offer, particularly for first time buyers. If you’re looking for a good quality of life with plenty to do and a superb choice of new houses for sale, Hereford is a great place to start your search.

Hereford Education
One of the biggest draws of buying a new home in Hereford is the excellent quality and choice of schools, making this city a top choice for raising a family. Not only are primary and secondary schools some of the best in the West Midlands area, but the council may also be able to help with free transport for kids (aged 4-16 years) living over a certain distance from their school.
