Yes, we've all heard of places like Alwoodley, Cookridge, Adel and Horsforth. But Mark Manning, MD of Manning Stainton, has picked out these areas as some of the hottest suburbs that are still affordable yet likely to go up in price in the coming years:
1. Chapeltown & Potternewton
Historically, Chapeltown and Potternewton areas were not considered among the most desirable areas in Leeds. However, over time the location has benefitted from significant regeneration and the improvement of neighbouring suburbs.

With that improvement has comes a wealth of young professional keen to settle in Chapeltown & Potternewton, which still boasts affordable prices and is close to the city centre, and within striking distance of places like Chapel Allerton and Meanwood.
3. Pudsey
Pudsey has all the hallmarks of a suburb that’s on the cusp of becoming a real hot spot. It has great schools, good connections to the city thanks to a local train station, and there has recently been an emergence of some brilliant new bars and restaurants. With affordable prices, it’s becoming a particularly popular suburb amongst first time buyers as it provides a great place to take the first step onto the property ladder.

5. Cross Gates
Cross Gates is perfect for first time-buyers and investors alike, as investment in both infrastructure and the creation of new homes continues across the areas.

Cross Gates also benefits from the brilliant new retail park, The Springs, the ever-popular commercial centre at Thorpe Park and close proximity to the motorway network.
