Be among the first to own a home in Wakefield’s new development in the heart of the historic Civic Quarter

The first homes at the Wood Street Collection combine heritage, charm and city centre living.

Homebuyers in Wakefield will need to act fast to snap up one of just ten homes released in the first phase of the much-anticipated Wood Street Collection – a beautiful new residential neighbourhood which is transforming the city’s historic Civic Quarter.

Delivered by Fallowdale Homes – the homebuilding arm of Yorkshire-based property investment company and heritage specialists, Rushbond – the first homes will be ready to move into from summer 2025 and are available to buy off-plan now.

Three-bedroom mews homes

The first release includes 9 new three-bedroom Mews Houses at Gills Yard, available from £275,000. The homes feature modern, stylish interiors with high-quality fittings and a premium finish alongside PV (solar) panels, parking, private terraces and access to communal gardens. They offer the perfect combination of contemporary living in a community rich in history, heritage and charm.

At the heart of this new community lies Wood House; a one off, beautifully restored four-storey Victorian townhouse – the former police superintendent’s home – also available to buy for £500,000. Featuring four double bedrooms, an open-plan kitchen/diner, private terrace and EV ready parking – this is a unique opportunity to own a special home that blends architectural heritage with modern luxury.

Suburban feel in the city

Once completed, the Wood Street Collection will offer a mix of 63 distinctive heritage and new build properties, designed to meet the diverse needs of modern lifestyles. Connected yet compact; the Wood Street Collection combines a leafy, suburban feel with all the advantages and modern amenities of city centre living.

The neighbourhood will benefit from landscaping to create green space in the heart of the city centre, as well as streetscaping to provide attractive new public spaces and connectivity with neighbouring amenities which include coffee shops, cafes and restaurants – all within walking distance.

The homes will appeal to a whole range of residents’ – from first-time buyers to families and downsizers – keen to be part of a new neighbourhood where culture, leisure and business activities together create an attractive place to live. This is an incredible chance for purchasers to be a part of the next chapter of Wood Street’s story.
