Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
There is a Tesco Express, fish and chip shop and a barbershop nearby which is handy. The bins are emptied regularly. Parking is okay if your household only has 2 cars. There is hardly any noise from traffic and thankfully I have not been aware of any anti social behaviour, although the Police have been called to a nearby block of flats a few times.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
We have been fortunate that we have only had one minor problem and it is being resolved.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I genuinely cannot think of anything but I would definitely recommend moving here.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Very lucky to live in this development as a renter. So quiet, close enough to everything we need. Beautiful town. A bit of a longer drive to nearest train station but worth it. Front gardens maintained. Parking okay so far although it would be useful if everyone used their driveways and not just parked on the road.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Initially there were some delays due some reorganisation within the team but once this was settled, we received a very good service. Responsive, understanding, helpful.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
We can't decorate for 2 years but I like the fresh white walls and not sure I would paint them now

Property oversold. Property manager undervalued. Rent high. Work completion low.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
There has been many issues with the property, everything seems delayed as to a response from the contractors and as a builder I don't understand as to why. Materials are easy to source.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Not really. My front door isn't sorted. No stones. Shed gate isnt fitted properly. Lost more issues...
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
There is nothing more I wish to add so I am filling in 50+ characters
