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.

My home is owned by the council, but upon moving in we had alot of snags that needed to be sorted, but we never had anyone come and fix these. Eg alot of cracking on the walls. The French doors expand massively with the sun shining with them being dark plastic so do not close properly with out slamming. Other than that a lovely house, great size and layout.

Development is very pleasant to the eye, with lots of greenery (woods on the outskirts, self seeding meadows in the development itself). Children playground is available. Houses are made of slightly different brick colours so not to be identical but it all comes together nicely.

Lots of snags when 1st moved in, took 18months for some to get sorted. Happy with house now, lots of space and good size bedrooms. House very overlooked by neighbours behind and garden on a slope so difficult to design. Poor soil. Convenient place to live.

Some very obvious design flaws - light switch to back of house on wrong wall; USB and TV points in master bedroom on wrong wall; window in bathroom hard to access; en suite has huge washbasin leaving cramped space for toilet; no TV facility in 3rd bedroom etc etc. Facilities - play park - no children so waste of time personally- rarely used. Building management patchy. Property management poor, everyone in this street asking what are we paying for as they cannot see any value.

Overall estate design is quite pleasing if somewhat derivative. A good mix of designs and sizes, though parking issues seem to blight almost the entire estate. The house designs are efficiently compact but of poor quality with little to no effort to resolve issues.
