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

Parking is not allocated but with a permit I always find a space close to my flat. Bin collection is frustrating as I complained about having a cardboard bin before and that hasn’t been organised so the bin store gets over flowed with cardboard. It is very quiet here and maintained nicely on the grounds. The flats further down keep dumping furniture outside across from the flats which is frustrating as it’s a nice place to live apart from them doing that. There is no traffic noise it is very quiet.

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

I wish I had know it wasn’t allocated parking as I assumed I would always get a space outside my flat but that is not always the case sometimes it’s further away.

It’s close to my work and in a quiet neighbourhood. Close to town centre. Only limited to 1 parking space per apartment but thankfully we make it work.

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

our boiler needed looking at and it took a week for someone to acknowledge our communication. We ended up getting it fixed privately

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

One parking space per apartment. We ideally need 2 spaces but we make it work

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

The development is quiet and pretty but is quite far from shops, restaurants and the station which makes me feel isolated.

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

They haven’t - just shifted the blame for months with the issue remaining.

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

That the plumbing was bad, and I wouldn’t be able to use the shuttle bus as I have epilepsy and can’t drive

The local area and location is great. There are a few silly errors with the build, for example the apartment came with a dishwasher and a slot for a washing machine, yet only one socket was provided, a simple double socket would have solved this.
