Why choose a new home in Boston, Lincolnshire?

One of the most popular reasons for choosing a new home in Boston is that it offers plenty of job opportunities, while your hard-earned money goes further in the housing market. The area has a strong work ethic, with a local employment rate of over 70%, backed by the town’s industrial, logistics and food manufacturing sectors.

It is a town of creators and doers, backed by a significant £20 million long-term government regeneration fund aimed at keeping the town centre moving forward. 

What are the best things to do in Boston?

You’ll find plenty to keep your weekends packed in Boston. If your wardrobe needs an update, you can explore the high-street brands at Pescod Square right in the centre of the town, and if you prefer a more traditional haul, the famous open-air market runs every Wednesday and Saturday. 

For the days when you need to get some fresh air, you’ll have nine different country parks sitting within a five-mile radius of the town. You can clock up your daily step count across the 80 acres of woodland at Sir Joseph Banks Country Park, or load the bikes onto the rack and hit the trails at Witham Way Country Park, which has plenty of picnic spots and play areas to keep the little ones entertained.

The coastal wetlands at Frampton Marsh and Freiston Shore are brilliant for spotting migrating redshanks, skylarks, and diving ducks, and for something a little more exotic, a 20-minute drive lands you at the Ark Wildlife Park. 

Want to stick a bit closer to home? That’s no problem either. You can dive into some local history at the Guildhall, where you can trace the town’s connection to the Pilgrim Fathers and find out exactly how this Lincolnshire town gave its name to a rather famous city in Massachusetts. After a trip back in time, you can grab a bite to eat in one of the cafés or restaurants accessible from our new build developments in Boston.

Is it easy to get around Boston?

Yes, getting out and about from Boston couldn’t be easier, with a range of road and rail links that connect you to the rest of Lincolnshire and beyond.

Conveniently located for commuting and travel, Boston railway station sits squarely on the Poacher Line. Here you’ll find direct, hourly trains to Nottingham, allowing you to reach the city centre in around an hour and 15 minutes. If you need to head down to London, you can simply hop off at Grantham to catch a high-speed connection that gets you into King’s Cross in just over an hour.

If you prefer to be behind the wheel, the town is bordered by the A16 and A17. These routes open up direct paths north towards the historic streets of Lincoln and south down into Norfolk.

The seaside town of Skegness is also only 22 miles away along the A52. 

Are there good schools in Boston?

Yes, in fact, Boston has plenty of good schools to keep your children’s academic journeys on the right track.

For the younger years, local primary schools like Boston Pioneers Academy and Carlton Road Academy have both earned a ‘good’ reputation and rating from Ofsted for their welcoming classrooms and excellent reading programmes.

Then, when it is time to step up to secondary education, boys can compete for a spot at Boston Grammar School, which has been preparing students for higher education since 1567. And not to be outdone, Boston High School provides a top-tier grammar option for girls, consistently scoring highly for its supportive environment.
