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.

Well designed and built houses. The on site project manager ensures quality control. There are problems with vehicles being driven too fast, and noisy motor bikes. Hopefully, speed restrictions will be put in place. The grass in some of the common areas requires cutting more often. Once complete, Townsend Place will be a very pleasant place in which to live.

The build in general is very good there is just a few facilities missing, that could be of great use to most people living within their properties on this estate i.e outside tap, shed in the garden, a window in the bathroom for better air circulation as the fan doesn’t actually do anything so it gets very hot and dusty in the upstairs bathroom and more cups board space within the kitchen diner as there is very minimal storage.

Great aspects for modern living. Great views, and despite being very close to the A420 you hardly notice it once youve been in for a week or so. Only downside I have found is the abject lack of footpaths on the estate, they seem to either have been forgotten completely, or we are trialling some modern nueance that will occur on every estate to come. Great Builders (Bovis) , very helpful site staff on the few occasions Ive had the need to call on them.

The houses are great, I’m in a 2 bed house and it’s so spacious, lovely sized garden and parking for both of us and a couple of guests. The builders are very friendly and very helpful if you have an issue they are more than happy to have a look for you. We are just waiting for the road to be surfaced both other than that Bovis have done a great job

The paths are very narrow leaving many people having to walk on the road. The turning into Cozens Grove is tricky if there are vehicles coming both ways. The bungalows are really spacious. Most of the plots are sadly overlooked by other properties and I think better consideration for fencing height and angle would be helpful. Most neighbours have had to extend their fences to ensure their privacy.
