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.

I am not sure whether it is part of the plan to create another green space but it would be good for the many children that play outside each day. It would be good if they can start improving the quality of the streets and sidewalks. I understand they probably want to wait for construction to finish but the road is in a terrible condition. The side walks as you drive into the development is also terrible and can do with some improvement. There are obviously also people that house share so it is annoying having to drive out of the estate with all the extra vehicles parked on the side of the road or on the side walk.

The design of the downstairs is very spacious but the bedrooms upstairs are quite small, especially the Master Bedroom. I would rather have had a small landing and have a bigger master bedroom. Another thing I dont like about the design is that the downstairs toilet leads straight into the kitchen. Not really ideal in my opinion. The garden is also very small, for a detached house.

The design and the build is beautiful but some of the workmanship and finishes is not really up to standard. Some doors cannot close properly and front don’t was not fitted correctly is very hard to open / close. Unfortunately as this was our first home we didn’t get this fixed during the snagging period. Overall we are happy with our home

Lovely design of the house. Could of made more use of understairs for more storage and put a door in from the living room to kitchen to separate the two. Had a few snagging issues but given to site and most got sorted Sometimes takes a chase to get sorted.

The development has been very good in responding to any complaints and queries when raised so far. It’s either you call the small main office located in our area or you are referred to customer services who normally pick up very quickly when you ring up. Different staff have been sent out to respond to queries raised and they have always been polite and professional
