WHAT OUR VENDORS SAY
It’s truly been a pleasure calling this our home for the last 18 years. We moved in when our sons were in secondary school, and even now they both love coming back. Our house is only 5 minutes from Baildon train station, so it’s easy to nip into Ilkley or Leeds; we’ve also been able to commute to London as there’s a direct train from Shipley to Kings Cross. We’re in a fantastic location for walks, close to Baildon moor and Shipley Glen. Leeds-Liverpool canal is only a few minutes walk away, which we use all the time to wander down to Saltaire on a weekend.

The house itself has been wonderful, we jokingly refer to it as ‘The Tardis’ because the inside is so unexpected. It has a unique layout which feels open plan but you have the luxury of closing off the rooms when you want more privacy. We can be watching different things and there’s no noise disruption since we’re at opposite ends of the house. It’s also a lovely house for festivities, we’ve had many special Christmas and Easter celebrations here. You can fit an impressive Christmas tree in the hallway, and there are plenty of hiding places for Easter egg hunts.

Entertaining is a joy here, in summer we have all the patio doors open, records playing and dozens of guests freely meandering around. We’re keen gardeners so being south facing was perfect for us, the garden is a sun-trap and we’re lucky not to be overlooked. The patios on either side of the conservatory are set up so we can have a morning coffee on one side and enjoy an evening drink on the other. Our position means it’s safe for kids and pets to run around too as there’s no nearby traffic.

Visitors often comment on how calming the house feels. There’s just a special feeling about this house, we felt it on our first viewing. We feel truly grateful to have had the opportunity to live in such an idyllic spot. We hope the next owners are as happy here as we have been.

LOCATION
Baildon Village: A Hidden Gem Nestled in Yorkshire’s Heart

Perched on the edge of the stunning Yorkshire Dales, Baildon Village is a picturesque haven that seamlessly blends charm, history, and a vibrant sense of community. Known affectionately as “The Village on the Moor,” Baildon offers breathtaking views of rolling hills, rugged heather moorland, and the distant Pennine skyline.

The heart of Baildon is its thriving village center, where cobbled streets lead to a delightful mix of independent shops, welcoming cafes, and traditional pubs that exude warmth and hospitality. Whether you're stopping by for a hearty Yorkshire breakfast, a pint of local ale, or a stroll through its quaint boutiques, there’s always a sense of home here.

Baildon is well-served for families with a range of excellent educational options, from nurseries and primary schools to secondary education. Within the area and nearby there are several nurseries and early years settings, as well as primary schools including Baildon Church of England Primary School, Baildon Glen Primary School, Hoyle Court Primary School and Sandal Primary School, providing quality education close to home. For older pupils, Titus Salt School offers comprehensive secondary education for ages 11–18 with a broad curriculum and extracurricular opportunities. Beyond these, there are additional schools and settings accessible within the wider Bradford district. All of this is complemented by superb transport links, with Baildon Train Station just a short walk away, making the commute to nearby towns and cities straightforward for families and commuters alike

History whispers through the village, from its ancient Saxon origins to the striking parish church of St. John the Evangelist, which has stood as a beacon for centuries. The nearby Bracken Hall Countryside Centre and Shipley Glen Tramway speak to the area’s rich heritage, offering glimpses into Baildon’s rural past and its ties to the industrial revolution.

For lovers of the outdoors, Baildon Moor is a treasure. Walkers, runners, and nature enthusiasts flock here for its sweeping landscapes and peaceful trails. In every season, the moor offers something special—from golden sunsets to winter frosts that sparkle underfoot. Wildlife thrives here, making it a haven for birdwatchers and photographers alike.

But perhaps what sets Baildon apart is its people. The village is alive with community spirit, celebrated through its vibrant local events like the Baildon Carnival and the Farmer’s Market. Here, neighbors are more like family, and visitors are always welcomed with open arms.

Whether you’re exploring its scenic beauty, delving into its rich history, or simply soaking up its friendly atmosphere, Baildon Village is a place that stays with you long after you’ve left. It’s not just a destination; it’s a way of life—rooted in tradition, yet always evolving.
