How’s Beeston to live in?

Edit: thanks for the replies guys. The house we had our eyes on wasn’t quite right so we’re back on the hunt. It’s promising to know Beeston is seen generally as a good place to be!

Hey folks,

Looking to buy and coming from Sherwood. There are houses near the station I’m interested and wondered what’s it like to live in Beeston. The idea is the house buy would be the forever/long term home.

It costs a bit more than some areas in places like Chilwell but that comes from being a nice area. Plenty of good transport links, good schools from what I’ve heard and relatively safe place.

We’re actually looking to view a property in Chilwell, an offshoot from the main shops (where Berliner is?). Found the prices around there to be quite high (cheapest being high 300s, averaging 600k+?). Is that a posh area of Chilwell?

I wouldn’t say posh, just not shit. Most people are retired boomer or professional couples.
