Great Village to be part of.

The design and location of Artisan house is second to none. Well maintained property and excellent response to any problems from Aster Group via their online service.
Garden areas are regularly maintained.
Regularly updated with Aster Group news via emails.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

Excellent education facilities to support all pupils in the village.
Local Sainsbury’s, Hairdresser’s and Barber shop in a central location.
Regular 3 buses per hour that can commute you to town centre and Wroughton.
Village pub and doctor’s surgery soon to be completed.
Roads and pathways leave a lot to be desired. A lot of work needed to get them finished.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Everything you need from a warm welcoming village.

Property is nice size. Good to have downstairs toilet too.

Property is nice size. Good to have downstairs toilet too. However the walls are all plasterboard and when my coat rack fell off it came to my attention that it was put up without using correct fixings which makes me worry about the rest of the house if something so simple wasn’t done properly. My stair skirting is all cracked and coming away from the stairs. And the front door eye piece gets too much moisture inside to be able to see out. I have already had to have my front door handle fixed too. Garden is a slope too which creates problems for my children. It could have been levelled out.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

Local shop is awful, never had any stock always looks like it’s about to close down.
Transport to Winchester is awful one bus an hour which is almost guaranteed to be late.
Parking spaces aren’t marked with numbers so I struggle to park in my own spaces, with 2 young children this is very infuriating. Neighbours park out the front of my house so that’s never an option either. Where my house is the bins are a struggle to get in and out too. Young children seem to roam around the estate causing various problems. I get lots of rubbish out the front of my house too.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

That you would have to drive to go anywhere really.

What is the best feature of your home:

Nice size rooms, having a downstairs toilet, having a garden

Tenants should be given a chance to contribute in designing their homes.

House design poor, ground floor all one room no separate living area and kitchen, not attractive and practical for family with children.
There are no fitted wardrobes which can be very convenient for someone.

Property management is ok.

Building defects reported which can be an inconvenience.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

Good open space and parks.

Shop ok.

Public transport ok, not fully reliable.

Living in the street is hell due to anti social behaviour.

Parking availability good.

Bin collection excellent.

Traffic noise ok.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Bad antisocial behaviour in the street

Generally happy.

The development has looked tatty for quite some time and is obviously work in progress but the playground areas have been abandoned and the grass frequently needs cutting.
We have listed our snags to Taylor Wimpey but only a few of the problems were resolved after various emails being sent and received.
We love the area and are happy with the location and the house itself.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

We are very happy with local shops and services. We could use a petrol station nearer.
We find it quiet where we are and have had no issues with neighbours.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I wish we knew about the park area right outside our front door.

What is the best feature of your home:

We love the top floor of our town house. The garden is also a good size.
