7 feel-good reasons to call Brook House Place in Urmston home
August 19th, 2025
Where bold design meets local soul
There’s something special about Urmston. It’s the kind of town that makes everyday life feel like a little bit more fun – and at the heart of it is Brook House Place. If you’re thinking about making a move, here are seven reasons why this stylish new Eccleston Homes development could be your perfect match.
1. Design-led homes with proper personality
Forget ordinary. Brook House Place is packed with sharp lines, bold shapes and clean, contemporary architecture you won’t find on just any street. Inside, it’s all about open-plan living, light-filled spaces and clever layouts perfect for hosting the big match night, setting up your WFH zone, or stretching out with a weekend brew.
2. Built for real life, and real comfort
With solar panels and Air Source Heat Pumps, every home here comes with green thinking baked in. That means lower bills, warmer winters, and guilt-free comfort that’s better for the planet too. Stylish finishes? Of course. Thoughtful storage? You bet. These homes are designed to keep up with your day-to-day, however that looks.
3. A town that just gets it
Urmston isn’t just a postcode, it’s a proper vibe. There’s always something going on, from artisan markets and indie eats to live music and new openings. Grab a sourdough sarnie at the market, meet mates for small-batch wine at Kelder, or book a table at ÖRME if you’re feeling fancy. This is local living with big flavour.
4. Green spaces, big skies, and fresh air for days
Need a breather? You’re never far from it. Brook House Place is surrounded by nature spots, parks and peaceful pockets of green. Chase the dog around Davyhulme Park, head off-grid on the Trans Pennine Trail, or wander down to Riverbank Coffee for homemade cake in the woods. The slower pace is always just around the corner.
5. Top schools just down the road
Whether you’re planning for little learners or already knee-deep in the school run, you’ll find plenty of highly-rated options nearby. Davyhulme Primary and Our Lady of the Rosary RC are
both Ofsted Outstanding, and Urmston Grammar and Flixton Girls’ School come with glowing reputations. That’s one less thing to stress about.
6. City close, community closer
Commute to Manchester in ten? No problem. With Urmston Station nearby and the M60 just minutes away, you’re sorted for city living when you want it – and peaceful evenings when you don’t. Supermarkets, GPs, leisure centres and local gems are all on your doorstep. Because convenience is the real luxury.
7. A friendly, easygoing neighbourhood feel
Brook House Place is a close-knit collection of homes that feel connected from the get-go. It’s the kind of place where neighbours stop to say hi, weekend plans happen spontaneously, and you can walk to wherever you’re heading. It’s big on warmth and small on hassle – and it might just be your new happy place.
