Pudsey is a charming market town, located on the west side of Leeds, about 5 miles to Leeds city centre and 4 miles to Bradford.
There is a variety of property styles in the area and many of the houses are built in local stone, some dating back to the 18th and 19th century, which have lots of the character and charm of the period.
These character properties sit comfortably alongside the more recent built housing, which forms the town as it is today.
