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.

The development has a great community and in an excellent location. The house has awkward design features such as a badly designed kitchen with unusable cupboards, and a garden fence which is not straight and of cheap material. Building management on the estate is nonexistent and the community has had to take to maintaining the flower beds and lawns.

The overall development is very nice, just a shame the grounds have not been finished as advertised, overgrown nettles and weeds everywhere what should be nice lawned areas are full of stones and weeds it would be absolutely stunning if it had been finished properly and not just left in a mess.

Decent design with generous family areas although would have preferred a more modern design whereby the bottom floor extended with a larger footprint than upstairs. Double garage doors are pointless - I dont know anyone who can fit the car in and then manage to get out of the car. a single, central wide garage would have been better. Appliances are a bit naff and very beepy Building management / property management have largely been decent with honest communication to rectify issues Dont seem to be coming good on their word for the communal areas - sales video shows lush grassed lawn when it look like its just going to be a wild weed area

The Stonecross Mansions housing estate is a set in the grounds of the mansion. It is surrounded by the original old wall and there are plenty of open green areas with well established trees. The houses are set with a suitable distance apart to provide privacy but also close enough to encourage small communities to be formed by the neighbouring properties.

The development is in an excellent position within walking distance of the town centre, in beautiful grounds. the designs of all the houses are good, with different designs for each style of house, they are very attractive. The development has some public areas, some of which have been left as wild meadow, and others have been laid to lawn. There is a large central area that we were led to believe would be laid to lawn as well but has currently just been prepared, so we will wait to see how this grows. The groundsman is quite rude, but we choose to avoid/ignore him, all the other employees of Charles Church have been lovely. The small issues with the property have been mainly sorted within the first 6 months, with the exception of the rear fence to our property and our neighbours. However, overall the development is very nice.
