Heron’s Reach offers residents the best of both worlds, with scenic beauty and city chic all within reach.
On the one hand, its picturesque village location of Greenfield means that the untouched beauties of Saddleworth Moor and Doverstones Reservoir are a mere stone’s throw away. On the other, the thriving centre of Manchester is just 40 minutes away by car, and with Greenfield Train Station conveniently positioned close to the development, travel routes to the South West, Huddersfield, Leeds and beyond are all easily accessible.
It’s the lifestyle choices that Heron’s Reach makes possible that make it such a heavenly location.
Heron’s Reach is a stylish new waterside development that offers the ultimate in modern living. Out selection of properties is ideally situated to give residents something truly unique – a magnificent moorland retreat that also boasts speedy links to the city.
The aesthetic of the design is therefore very much in harmony with the natural beauty of the surrounding area and as a result, Heron’s Reach adds to the distinctive and inimitable charm of Greenfield as a whole.
Lying close to the River Tame and the Huddersfield Canal, Heron’s Reach is an area steeped in history culture and heritage. One half of this divide was previously the site of Frenches Mill, a hat factory built over 200 years ago; the other half houses Knoll Mill, a premier manufacture of volume-spun lambswool and Shetland wool for the world knitwear market.
Historically, the industrial revolution had a huge impact on Saddleworth and was chiefly responsible for the building of both the canal and the railway. However, it is the collection of pretty villages and stunning natural surrounding that makes the area what it is today.
