Davidsons Homes

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The village is ok, a little congested and clearly in need of some infrastructure development. Close to main roads - although weather dependent as some flooding does occur regularly which impacts on access in and out of the village

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

Truthfulness about neighbouring developments - sales team where not honest in their responses to direct questions about development of adjacent farmland. Overall lack of customer service.

What is the best feature of your home:

Chocolate box appearance - well designed and spacious

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The location is very scenic and can see the country side. There aren't any supermarkets close by in terms of walking but there are many options if you had a car. The area is so-so in terms of anti social behaviour as we have had experienced several incidents where the police had to be called but this obviously comes down to the legal requirement of the social housing in any new developments.

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

I wish we got a professional snagger in to rectify everything that we didn't see first off. Also, I wish we were more adamant in getting things rectified although we struggle with balancing time and effort for what it was worth.

What is the best feature of your home:

The kitchen bay windows and patio windows is the best feature on hour house

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The town of Market Harborough is about 15 minutes walk away there is a great park within 10 minutes, goid restaurants, coffee shops and bars, there are countryside walks within a couple of minutes from the estate all in all a great area. Parking is a bit of an issue as the houses all have two parking spaces but this doesn’t allow for visitors so this can cause an issue with traffic on the road side, also cars do travel far to fast on side streets this could have been dealt with by traffic calming being put in. There has also been a lot of drainage issues due to being on a hillside

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

Nice quiet area to live, lots of dogs, nice walks on your doorstep, great town for food. Shopping not so great need to travel for larger choice.

What is the best feature of your home:

The bedroom on the third floor, large spacious and large ensuite, fitted wardrobes in the main bedroom.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

We're situated in the beautiful village of Meppershall, where we have a village shop with a post office, a village pub that serves food most days and a fantastic village hall which has a vibrant social club running many events both during the day and of an evening. Friends have commented on how quiet it is and it's nice that most properties have parking spaces, so we don't have too much street parking on our development.

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

Wish we had thought more about some of the locations of the sockets. In particular, the TV socket in the kitchen we would have liked higher up and know from our other requests, that this would not have been a problem to Davidsons had we requested it at the point of choosing our options

What is the best feature of your home:

The spaciousness of our property, the general design and hopefully in time, the view from our property

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Bus service to the town would be helpful and save from jumping in my car. Would benefit from a local convenience store on the development. I have my own parking and that is good. Quiet development, but I find it hard to really relax and do things like play music due to fear of disturbing the neighbours as everyone is so quiet.

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

I fell in love with my house the moment I stepped into it.

What is the best feature of your home:

I love the windows - modern sash style windows that do let in a lot of light.
