East Yorkshire is one of those places that blends the best of both worlds. With its historic market towns like Beverley and picturesque villages to vibrant coastal resorts and open countryside, living in East Yorkshire offers a quality of life that’s hard to match.

At Beal Homes, we’ve been building homes for nearly 60 years, and we know the area inside out. Here, we’ll take a closer look at what makes East Yorkshire such a great place to live and how buying a new build with Beal Homes can help you make your move here simple, stress-free and tailored to your lifestyle.

 

The Appeal of Living in East Yorkshire

Living in East Yorkshire means you’re never far from something enjoyable. The county is full of variety, offering:

• Heritage and History: Beverley’s gothic Minster, Georgian architecture and cobbled streets offer charm in abundance.
• Beautiful Coastline: The sprawling Holderness Coast offers the dramatic cliffs of Flamborough Head or the quiet beach of Mappleton; perfect for coastal walks.
• Countryside Escapes: The rolling hills of the Yorkshire Wolds provide stunning walking and cycling routes.
• Vibrant City Life: Hull – once a UK City of Culture – offers museums, theatres, a thriving food scene and multiple shopping areas.

This mix of environments means there’s a lifestyle to suit everyone when you buy a home in East Yorkshire.

 

A Great Place for Families

East Yorkshire is a fantastic place to raise a family as well. You’ll find highly rated schools across the region, from small village primaries to Ofsted “Outstanding” secondary schools and further education colleges. This means they provide the highest-quality education and demonstrate exceptional standards from education to management and personal development; a helpful potential deciding factor knowing your child is going to get the best education.

Parks, leisure centres and family attractions are also plentiful – with many providing accessible and varied facilities including. Woodford Leisure Centre, for example, features a state-of-the-art immersive, virtual fitness studio, new swimming pools, refurbished squash courts and a new accompanying village – ensuring enjoyment for all interests and age groups.

Transport links make life easy, too. The A63 and M62 provide quick connections to Leeds, York and beyond, while regular rail services mean commuting is straightforward – typically two an hour between routes extending from Hull in the south to Scarborough in the north. Speaking of Hull, you can even book a direct train from here to London King’s Cross in around three hours, making it a great accessible route for both commuters and those seeking a weekend city break.

Your Home, Your Way – Enjoy Bespoke Design with Beal

One of the things our buyers love most about Beal Homes is the ability to personalise their property before they move in. Our Design Lounge is a unique space where you can choose everything from kitchen layouts and worktops to bathroom tiles, flooring and even the finer details like door handles.

But, our bespoke options go far beyond standard finishes. With Beal, you can add a sunroom or orangery (housetype and plot specific options), design a bespoke kitchen layout (keeping the sink in place), create built-in wardrobes, install a media wall or customise your ensuite with features like recess shelving and rainfall showers. We can even adapt garages or convert them depending on the plot and build stage, to landscaping rear gardens to make your home your dream space, all whilst having our superior standard specification.

This means when you move into your Beal home in East Yorkshire, it already reflects your style and works for you. This is the Beal difference people have come to expect from us.

Schemes to Make Moving Easier

We understand that moving home can feel overwhelming, especially if you have a property to sell or you’re navigating the buying process for the first time. That’s why we offer a range of Help for Buyers schemes for buyers in East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire. This is designed to take the stress out of moving, and here are some of our schemes to help you get your dream home in East Yorkshire:

• Part Exchange – Part Exchange provides a smooth and hassle-free way to move into a new Beal home. Instead of worrying about selling your current home, Beal homes can be your cash buyer (subject to terms and conditions). The scheme eliminates chain complications, covers estate agent and marketing fees, offers flexible moving dates, and helps manage the entire process – often with a quicker completion time and minimal stress.
• Smooth Move – Smooth Move is Beal’s tailored service to help you sell your old home seamlessly. The five step process includes an independent property valuation, a bespoke marketing plan, and complete management of the sale – while Beal covers estate agent fees. You even have the option to have Beal handle viewings on your behalf. Designed for upsizers, downsizers, relocators or anyone ready for a move, it minimises stress and keeps everything on track.
• Launch Pad – Launch Pad is a first-time buyer exclusive from Beal that makes your move extra special. Available on selected First Step and Aspire plots, the scheme offers up to £5,000 toward upgrades and extras in the Design Lounge, plus up to £1,000 to put toward legal fees. All first-time buyers are eligible for the exclusive Beal Launch Pad scheme, however only one offer can be used on a given plot, so make sure to speak with your sales executive to confirm availability.
• Deposit Unlock – Deposit Unlock opens the door to new Beal homes with just a 5% deposit and a 95% mortgage– even for non-first-time buyers. Thanks to a builder-funded insurance scheme, participating lenders can offer 95% mortgages on new builds up to £833,250. Lenders BlueStone and Perenna are involved, making this low deposit solution accessible on a wide range of properties, depending on approval. There is no upper limit on your household income, and you’ll own 100% of the property.
• Early Bird – The Early Bird scheme lets you reserve your ideal plot before it officially goes on sale. Pay a fully refundable £150 deposit, then, when the plot is released, Beal offers you first refusal. You’ll have 48 hours to decide I you would like to go ahead before it’s released to others. If you decide to proceed, an additional £600 brings your total reservation deposit to £750. It’s a great way to secure your preferred plot early, subject to being in a proceedable position.
• Own New – The Own New scheme partners Beal with mortgage specialists to offer competitively priced mortgage products for new builds. Through approved independent advisers, buyers can access Own New’s Rate Reducer – a reduced rate mortgage option that lowers monthly payments for an initial term, with interest sometimes as low as under 4% (correct at time of going to print). The scheme is available to first-time buyers and home movers alike, helping more people afford their new Beal home. Read our blog: ‘Why Buy a New Build Home?’ for more information.
• First Homes – First Homes is a government backed initiative aimed at helping first-time buyers in Hull and the East Riding of Yorkshire access new homes at a 30% discount off the full market value. The discount remains with the property permanently: any future buyers will also receive the reduced discount against future market valuations. To qualify, buyers must be over 18, have a gross household income under £70,000 per year, and have a local connection – such as residency, family ties, or employment within the area. Eligibility is determined when reserving a plot, so checking with the sales team is essential.
• Key Worker – The Key Worker scheme supports frontline workers—such as teachers, nurses, doctors, firefighters, paramedics, midwives, social and care workers, police and prison officers, MOD staff, and coast guards—by offering up to 5% of the deposit toward buying a new Beal Home, up to a maximum value of £12,500. This exclusive benefit shows Beal Homes’ appreciation for key workers and can significantly reduce the upfront cost of purchasing a property.
• Recommend A Friend – Already own a Beal home? You can receive a £250 reward when a friend or family member you refer completes on there new home. Simply download and fill out the voucher, hand it to your referral, and they present it at their first visit. Once they move in, you get your reward—simple and rewarding for everyone involved.

Our schemes can save you time, money and stress, allowing you to focus on the exciting part of moving into your brand new Beal home.
