Goldington

MK41 0 / MK41 8 / MK41 9

Family-friendly

Goldington sits east of the town centre with a mix of housing eras. The older part around Goldington Green has some attractive Victorian properties and a village-ish feel with the church and a pub. Further east it becomes more suburban with 1960s and 70s estates. Goldington Academy is the local secondary. The area is close to the river meadows and the Priory Country Park, which is a genuine asset for families and dog walkers. It is mid-table Bedford, neither the cheapest nor the most expensive.
