We believe the best information about a residential development comes from the people living there. Owners and tenants have a lot of useful information to share with their prospective neighbours, not just on the property itself and its locality, but also on the developer and the building’s management.

The development remains incomplete despite many residents having been here for several years. It takes an age for Gleeson to respond, much less take action, and the company that have been 'finishing' the roads are weeks, if not months behind. Gleeson are however quick to complain to residents when they feel their gardens are not being upkept, however what they fail to realise (or acknowledge) is that they and their contractors are the ones that create the mess/damage in most cases! Parking is just about non-existent, and if you're looking for a path to walk on, some streets are to be avoided because there is none! The layout is a total mess, with some houses set further forward/back than others, zero symmetry, and wonky lines as far as the eye can see. The 'fencing' Gleeson install (if you're lucky!) is such poor quality that you can clearly see right into many gardens, meaning little to no privacy. The gravel that has been used for drives and gardens ends up all over the estate, making it look even more of a mess. The gardens may as well be left bare, as numerous residents have had issues with water drainage (surprise, there was none!), bricks/debris left behind and grassed over, and general overall quality. Many of the gardens are dead or dying as a result. You can of course contact Gleeson for any issues, but you may as well write them on a piece of paper and set fire to it for all the good it does. You either get turned away, a bodge job repair, or told that it's your responsibility and that's that. Gleeson DO NOT CARE once a sale has been made, that much is clear

Really enjoy my home, its layout is ideal for my current needs, have been extremely fortunate to have a plot that came with a really big garden. We had some issues with the property that took a fair amount of time to be resolved but they did eventually get resolved. Facilities next to estate are great with 2 big chain supermarkets and petrol station all within a stones throw of my front door. So overall i have been happy with my property.

we believe that for the price we have decent design and space and the general quality is good - apart from paint work builders have always been super helpful, professional and kind, unlike Miss L in site office who has been providing us with misleading information on several occasions, however head office Ladies have always been amazing helping us out

The property is great, we’ve had no problem getting through to Gleesons if we have a problem and they’ve fixed it without any issues. The house is lovely and warm and soundproofed very well. It can be very quiet living here.
