Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
There are only a couple of shops within walking distance, transport links aren’t great. The estate itself is fine but it’s a very average location.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
That signs of wear and tear would be charged extortionately against our deposit (or at least attempted to).
What is the best feature of your home:
The large bedroom on the top floor with the en suite is lovely.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Firstly we would just like to thank Adam who has been amazing from our first house viewing to completing our move in, could not praise him enough! There are plenty of nearby shops and schools around the local area with transport also available nearby. The street we have just moved into has very friendly neighbors who are all lovely!
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Couldn’t think of any bad insights! Our move has been smooth sailing from start to finish all thanks to Lloyd’s living!
What is the best feature of your home:
The best feature of our home is the Kitchen/Diner and the garden, we love it!

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The street is generally quiet and friendly, with good parking availability and regular bin collections. I’ve not experienced any major issues with traffic noise or anti-social behaviour. It’s a pleasant and safe place to live overall, and I’ve really enjoyed my time here
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
One thing you don’t notice during a typical viewing is how peaceful and friendly the neighbourhood really is. It’s a welcoming community, and neighbours are respectful and helpful
What is the best feature of your home:
Gas stove and central heating, the downstairs WC is of god size, and sitting in the garden in the evening is our favourite part.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Close to local amenities, you live in the country side but easily reach the city centre in 20 minutes driving! The area is quite and family friendly. Roads are clean.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The ongoing noise and traffic from roadworks, even in Saturday.
What is the best feature of your home:
The house is fully detached, you don't feel like living in a box!
