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.

Small development means that the houses are set apart from the rest of the houses in the valley and makes them very unique. Brickwork is a different colour and males them appear a more up market expensive look than other houses on the estate. The design could have had more character however such as the window surrounds on the Palermo which don't look finished and a little cheap. These could have added more character to rhe property

The design of the homes and the public areas of the development is really nice, very much above average for a new-build development. The project management team and quality managers really do try to ensure that every detail of the area looks great and is of a high standard. Parking availability on the estate is better than average although when people have visitors, you do have to navigate around cars parked on the road. The roads themselves are very narrow and will only just squeeze two cars by that are travelling in opposite directions. Strata have also created a public area with a small football pitch and park. In my opinion, it wouldn't have cost much more to build a larger pitch and a park with more items in it and it would have made a great difference to the people on the development.

Management and after care has been good although there was a change in management so has been a little slow going. Also covid didn’t help but it’s expected. I wish we didn’t have to meander through so many builders vans every morning though. They should have allocated an area for them. Instead they block most roads.

The designs are interesting. I think the properties with sloping gardens the ground should have been levelled before been turned making outside areas more usable and easier to manage. In properties with just one bathroom I think the they should have a bath with shower above, not just a shower cubicle. Windows have been a problem with closing and it takes a long time for company to rectify problems. Bin collection can't be done from outside our property, we have to take the bins to the end of the road not ideal as we are in our 70's

House at closely packed together and did to 3 story makes things worse as sound echoes around the estate. Design is not very aesthetic almost looks like houses are not finished especially the third floor on the 3 story buildings on the outside have plastic facades.
