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

That’s the build quality of the Jones homes was so poor and that their aftercare/customer service was so poor

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

With ignorance and lack of any empathy or care. Could not be less interested in resolving ours and our neighbours numerous issues

Building management is good, anything that we have required has been dealt with in a timely manner.

There is a lot of “wild grass” areas that really could do with more maintenance, such as around ponds and along walkways, but more is to be said on this topic.

The estate is away from the main road, quiet and comfortable. Local amenities such as Lidl and other businesses on Poulton industrial estate are really handy – like the vets and the gym. Poulton has a fantastic selection of bars and restaurants and we’re always looking to eat out.

We’d have liked to have known that maintenance on the landscape isn’t going to be started until a later stage (I think once the adjoining Persimmon development is finished).

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Any snags or concerns were dealt with immediately. We had an issue whereby our loft hatch was in the wrong place in the spare room, and thus couldn’t accommodate fitted wardrobes. Movement of the hatch was organised and was completed in a few hours to a very high standard.

Great location, close to parks and natural walking trails, good quality roads, nice neighbourhood, spacious sidewalks, clean and very kids friendly. Development is close to the train station and Wilmslow town and schools
There is no much parking availability however and houses are very close together.

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

Great hone, no comment.

Dave, Vicki in the offices and Bruce Lawson have helped us tremendously and we thank them so much !!

Given the price of houses these days however, one would have expected all homes to have house alarms as standard and not just a select few. Whilst crime in this area is considered to be low, there’s a tell tale sign of which homes are protected by alarms and which aren’t with the bright red flashing lights and the absence on other houses.

In a time of environmental awareness, you would expect new homes nowadays to be more environmentally friendly, the lack of solar panels and green boiler alternatives would have been a welcome sign of change.

Had a few issues with the overall finish of the property, ranging from faulty roof tiles, poor French door fittings (don’t close at all in hot weather unless slammed very very hard, on occasions they don’t shut at all) apparently in the home manual this is normal! Also poor finish to fittings and plastering fall short of expection in a new build.

Heather View is in an enviable setting, located in a lovely rural village with plenty of options to explore the surrounding areas within reach of the main cities such as Sheffield and Huddersfield. The location was the reason for purchase, and being able to take advantage of the government help to buy certainly made my move become a reality for which without, wouldn’t have been possible. I cannot comment any negatives I have experienced, just certain issues with the finish of the property which will be mentioned in the next section. Neighbours, rural setting, convenience to larger towns/cities make Heather View a great place to call home.
