Fairfield Manor
Just half a mile from the lively centre of Wakefield, yet tucked into a haven of almost rural calm, Fairfield Manor is a beautiful new neighbourhood of premium-quality houses and apartments. Arranged around a pleasant open space that forms a focal point in the style of a village green, this peaceful retreat is perfectly situated for easy access to the M1 and M62 motorways, making it an ideal base for the commuter.
The day to day
Quality of life. Most often, it’s about the details of everyday living. From the little things, like knowing the nearest place to pick up a pint of milk, to the bigger things, like choosing the right school, or finding a health centre nearby. You need to know that the community to which you’re moving to will support you and your family, as well as being a pleasant place to live. So, here’s some useful information about the town of Wakefield.
Parks and open spaces
Wakefield’s recreational areas include Thornes Park, with its lake and attractive flower-beds, and the superb Pugney’s Country Park, around a mile from Fairfield Manor, where there is a 100-acre watersports lake with facilities for canoeing, sailing and windsurfing, a 1.6-mile running or walking track, and a smaller lake which is a designated nature reserve. The River Calder, which runs through the town, also offers pleasant riverside walks. The renowned Yorkshire Sculpture Park is less than six miles away.
Leisure and recreation
Fairfield Manor is located close to the Normanton Golf Club, where the championship parkland course is set in 145 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds.
