The good outweighs the bad
In great location for Manchester City Centre and Salford Shopping Centre. Lidl located within 3 minutes walk and a small complex with hairdressers, cafe and shops across the park. Frequent buses to take you to the city centre. Parking is fine everyone has a driveway, however the street is full, lots of commercial vehicles and people using the street to commute to Manchester, makes it difficult to get off your driveway and not a pleasant sight when you look out of your window. No real road traffic noise as cul de sac location. Bin collection is reliable and occurs every Wednesday. No real concerns on anti-social behaviour.
Please review your development:
The design of the property is ideal, over 3 floors with 4 bedrooms, streets are well kept as most houses are privately owned. There is no building or property management, houses have been in place for 10 years. The trees in front of the houses are now really overgrown and can imagine being an issue if not maintained, they started off as a small tree when the property’s were originally built.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish there was some form of parking restrictions or rules on commercial parking as this is the only real issue with the streets.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Initially the property developer was fixing snagging issues, no contact made in approximately 9 years.
