"Exciting new chapter" for Yorkshire estate agent with new Elland base

A Yorkshire estate agent has announced that it is expanding into new offices in the centre of Elland.

Dacre, Son & Hartley, based in Ilkley, is expanding its Elland office into new “much more prominent” Victoria Road premises in the town’s centre.

The company has a network of 20 offices across West and North Yorkshire, and first opened an Elland branch at the start of 2018.

It said that the larger premises mark the start of an “exciting new chapter” in the area.

Philip Garnett, who heads up Dacre, Son & Hartley’s Elland office, said: “Our new office is probably the most prominent unit in the town centre and benefits from a highly visible double fronted shop with plenty of passing footfall and traffic.

“Since we opened in Elland three and a half years ago, we’ve quickly established ourselves in the local property market and have sold all types of homes across a wide-spanning area ranging in value from £50k to £2.5m.

“This has undoubtedly been helped by the strength of the local property market. Halifax and Huddersfield have both benefited from significant investment in recent years and their surrounding towns and villages are ideally placed for commuters to Leeds and Manchester too.

“Both buyers and sellers are continually impressed with our marketing approach, which combines expert local knowledge with a vast reach via Dacres’ 20-strong office network, website and strong visibility across all the main property portals.

“We’re currently marketing all types of property ranging from Butterworth End Farm, which comes with 35 acres at Norland, and several large detached homes at Ripponden, through to smart apartments and traditional terraces in and around Elland.

“Our ability to offer the same high standard of service across every property type has been key to our success and relocating to this new office marks the start of an exciting new chapter for us in Elland.”
