Dewsbury is a popular and historic West Yorkshire market town located in the borough of Kirklees. It has a mixture of affordable and diverse housing types, typified by traditional Victorian terraced properties around the town itself, and a range of semi-detached and detached properties in popular outer areas such as Thornhill. Properties in Dewsbury are generally around £20,000 below the West Yorkshire market average in terms of value, at around £170,000, but some areas offer good investment potential, particularly those with good commuter links to bigger towns and cities nearby, such as Leeds, Bradford, Wakefield and Huddersfield.
This diverse property range and strong buy-to-let appeal drives a dynamic property market and therefore blinds in Dewsbury are in high demand as people move into new properties and seek to put their stamp on them immediately. Blinds are one of the first things we consider when moving into a property, or when spending money to improve a property. As well as providing immediate privacy, security and light control, blinds add colour and personality and enable a home to feel like it’s our own. But what are the best blinds for Dewsbury properties?
Popular blinds for Dewsbury properties
Older properties that are common in Dewsbury tend to feature larger rooms with higher ceilings, and often also feature bay windows. It is also common to find terraced houses which open straight onto a street, with no driveways or front gardens to speak of, and hence, privacy and security become an issue. Characteristics such as these all influence the type of blinds you need for a property in Dewsbury.
While each household will have their own individual preferences and styles, good solutions for blinds in Dewsbury include:
- Made to measure – While this applies to any type of blind, opting for made to measure blinds ensures a perfect fit, which brings aesthetic benefits, but also helps with energy efficiency, as there are no gaps and heat loss is minimal.
- Roller blinds – These are a classic style which will match traditional architecture. You can also opt for blackout varieties which reduce light bleed and are ideal for bedrooms. This also helps retain heat, which in older stone houses can make an important difference.
- Vertical blinds – Ideal for living spaces with high ceilings, and are adjustable to help with changing light control and privacy needs.
- Day & Night blinds – An innovative system of alternating sheer and opaque panels, which allow you to adjust light to suit the time of day.
- Perfect fit blinds – Can be installed in the individual panes of bay windows without having to drill into old plaster or window frames.
- Roman blinds – Soft and thick fabric that can bring depth and warmth to larger rooms.
