Design of properties are typical new-build development, but with a twist of high ceilings and large windows which make them feel better than the average new home. Some streets feel more enclosed than others, but on the whole the estate feels quite unclutterered and welcoming. Some areas of green space help it feel more like the countryside isn't far away. Estate management has just been handed over and this is proving to be a strained relationship. Hopefully this is just teething problems and will be sorted soon.

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

Great surrounding area. Near to City Centre but far enough away to be quiet. Some occasional anti-social behaviour from local teens, but nothing serious and not often. Lovely place to live.

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

Estate management companies are a pain. We have only recently been handed over from the developer, but the teething problems we are having is frustrating. I can only hope these will soon iron out and will run smoothly, but at this stage they are more than useless.

What is the best feature of your home:

Energy efficiency, internal size, large windows, quality of fixtures & fittings.

Noise, mud and contractors blocking drives

Handleyplaceresident (Owner)

Handley Place, Locking, BS25

Oct 2023

The development is not at all finished yet. We moved into our home in August 2023 and we are right by the entrance to the site. There is constant noise, contractors blocking our drive and rubbish left on our property at the end of the day. We were so excited to move into our new home but have been totally let down by the developers. I am sure it will be lovely in due course, but it does feel as though they have moved us in months too early and we are living on a building site.

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

The good: The general area of this development is great, you are within walking distance of some lovely green spaces and will (eventually) have access to two schools and a doctors surgery on your doorstep. Locking village is also lovely and within walking distance. Here there are a few shops a café and a great pub (try the burgers!). The bad: St Modwen prioritise selling new properties over making those already built livable. There is always mud all over the roads, contractors parked blocking roads and constant noise from 7:30am. Where a small park is supposed to be build, they have put the parking for their sales office and instead of completing a road where residents already live, they have started building the higher value properties instead.

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

I wish St Modwen had been clear about the stage of the build surrounding our property, currently our house is in the middle of a building site and we feel they took advantage of us because we are first time buyers.

What is the best feature of your home:

The use of space - there is no wasted space and it feels light a airy Quality of the build on the house itself - we had limited snags and have been impressed with the overall quality

Pathetic service if you can call it service

I will highly recommend that you think before you buy any property through this rotten company. The promise you everything at the start and once you have moved in they are like ghosts, you do not hear from them or see them. Our development was particularly poorly built and structurally I think it is not safe. I will do anything in my ability to prove a point about this.

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

the worst I have ever worked with. So many problems with my house and 3 years later it is still not resolved. I life in France currently and I was informed by my estate agent that a pipe had burst in my home. After thorough investigation it was noted that a faulty Nest system was installed which caused a pipe to burst during the cold months. A defective device which was installed by St Modwens. But because I am outside my warranty period they will not cover it. This has cost me thousands of pounds to repair. All the faults that I discovered at my brand new home was appalling. You cannot communicate with any of them as the do not respond to your emails. Only when you start threatening them will you get some sort of feedback. As a first time buyer I am horrified by this experience. They are absolutely shocking and only interested in one thing and that is your money.

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

They were always late to reply to any complaints. I spoke to so many people working for St Modwens having to explain the same story over and over as there is zero communication.

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

Well as a first time buyer I was hoping to walk into my house that was promised to me from a finish point of view. All of this was very disappointed as there were so many issues it was frightening.

Good Living Condition In Digbeth One2

Omotoke Ajidagba (Tenant)

Digbeth One 2, B12

Feb 2023

The building is a new construction. It consists of 4 nicely built blocks. One comment my guests would always leave is how spacious my living room and bedrooms are. The rooms are nicely constructed and I am assured I got value for my money. The building management is also really helpful when it comes to repairs.

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

Digbeth One2 is a place to live in. It is close proximity to the Coach Station, Train Station, Indoor & Open Market, City Center, most shopping arenas (10 minutes walk and 3 minutes by bus). Transportation is the best around this route because it’s easily accessible. It is also peaceful contrary to the review I once heard.

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

I wish I knew about the rooftop prior but I totally enjoy it right now.

What is the best feature of your home:

The best feature of my home has to be my bedroom. I love my huge window.

Overall the property is nice but the amenities are very bad

The design of the building is good but the amenities offered are not upto the mark as the lift doesn’t work the gates are locked which cannot be opened from inside and outside. The property management is poor as when I call customer care they said that your request has been actioned but actually it is not.

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

Overall the property is nice but the amenities are very bad specially lift. It is almost always not working.

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

That the lift doesn’t work and the gates are locked which you can’t even open from your fob

What is the best feature of your home:

Hard Flooring is one of the best thing this building has.
