Value with Room to Grow

Houghton offers a strong sense of affordability and excellent access to healthcare, with nearby GP surgeries exceeding the national average. Residents will appreciate the neighbourhood’s very low flood risk and high levels of digital connectivity. However, opportunities for outdoor recreation are limited, and access to family-oriented amenities is currently low.
