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.

Very happy with our house and location . We have a bad damp situation which is on going ATM , the house needs insulated as it hasn't been fully done. Hopefully this will be resolved before winter comes as we have several large damps spots around the house, which isn't good for our health.

The overall look of the estates is very good houses are a good standard with gardens maintained to a high spec and communal areas regularly cut The roads are all done in brick and looks the part it boasts a bridal path running in between both developments

Attractively designed development and a nice place to live. The houses are well designed and good quality. Phase 1 seems to have more space between plots and less densely filled with properties. The annual property management fees seem expensive for the very little gardening/maintenance of some of the common areas that actually takes place. The road layout and design is illogical as Ellermire Drive is narrow and doesn't have pedestrian walk ways just soft grass verges yet it is the shortest route for many and hence is heavily used which creates dangers for pedestrians. This needs addressing.

I have lived in our house from new and it is 5 years 2 months old and the damp in our house is dreadful. I reported it to Story home who basically just replied to say it is over 2 years old!!! Is that a joke, you get better warranty with a car!!! Our bathroom ceiling is covered in mould so we have had to erect cladding to cover it, our bedrooms are also covered in mould. Also the top of our stairs there is a huge damp patch, what we thought was a leak, upon inspection, removing inches and inches of plaster then a brick, they discovered Story's have missed lots of insulation and they think this could be the case all over the house, hence the damp everywhere. So the full house needs drilled and inspected from the outside and filled with insulation we imagine. Luckily we don't have to pay for this but I also don't think Home Group should either.

We'll presented houses but disappointed that some areas of estate grounds don't get looked after by the management company or the council. Who looks after these? Are the home owners expected to upkeep them? I don't know. Well designed house and nice curb appeal.
