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.

There is plenty of living space but not enough storage space. E.g kitchen we have to store extra things on top of the cupboards. Would have been nice if the loft was boarded already. Noise consideration from the ongoing construction should be better.

designs of the houses are well thought out and spacious. the site layout is good too. specifications are too a high standard in our home. we’ve had the usual snags you get with any new build which are being sorted. but have had nothing major since moving in.

The development overall is of good quality. The house is sturdy, quiet and spacious with ample parking. The garden allows freedom without being too large to maintain which is very appreciated. The estate as a whole is of good quality. Some parts of the grassed areas could do with some work, due to the poor weather when the turf was placed. The only major issue is that of the drains. We are at the end house and have been told that we are responsible for paying if the drains get blocked. This isn’t mentioned in the contract and therefore we do not accept the responsibility due to us being at the end. There has already been occasions where the drains have become blocked, due to dirty nappies and baby wipes flushed by other residents further up the street. We are not responsible for these blockages as there is no-one in the house under 25, therefore the problem isn’t caused by us and means that we will not be paying for it to be fixed in future.

Our Plover is so perfect for us! We have come from older properties and apartments, so this has been a breath of fresh air! We love how well the house is designed; in reality, it doesn't have an overly large floor space, but the space is designed in such a way that maximizes its potential. The open plan kitchen-diner-living room is unique, we haven't seen such a large space in a new property of this size. Usually, rooms in new builds are very small and boxy, this is not the case with our property which is one of the reasons we were so happy to move here. Upstairs, the spare bedrooms aren't the biggest but they work perfectly for us as a guest bedroom/office and as a music room. Also, the fact that the house manages to pack in 3 toilets and 2 showers is amazing, it's so helpful! The quality of the kitchen units are outstanding and well built. Finishes such as carpet and joinery are of high quality too. Honestly so happy with our Jelson home!

The lay out and design of the house it's self is brilliant exactly what I need with having a toddler, the bedrooms are large double rooms each and I also have a very large garden which I love, their we're a few issues with the property when I moved in such as windows now working properly due to handle issues as well and my patio doors were not fitted correctly so I was not able to lock them and I also have some sort of leak in the down stairs bathroom which is still waiting to be fixed as it has caused mold under the flooring but over all it is a good house and nothing is perfect so I don't regret living here
