Amington Green, B77

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

We bought a Redrow home in September 2021 and moved in December 2021, the development is incomplete and therefore unable to comment on shops, restaurants etc. I understand that transport links are part of the development but not in place at this time. I can comment on the location and it's quiet semi rural and we're enjoying our move, can't wait for the walks to open completely. Meanwhile our bin collections have been excellent from the move in.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Our site contact for problems has been excellent, we've had very few problems, mainly minor but all have been dealt with, or in hand.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

We had viewed the properties prior to our move in and had a good feeling about the build and the developer.

Amington Village is ideal for commuting to Birmingham, Burton and close to a rail station linking with major cities. We have two main airports not far and with the M42 links to the countries motorway network. Doctors are close by and there soon will be a school built on the development inaddition to local schools nearby. Country pubs are close by and there is entertainment within the town of Tamworth. Shopping is easy with Ventura Park close by and Birmingham and Burton close by. Tamworth provides a rail link to major cities. WE have no antisocial behaviour, adequate parking and Redrow cleverly supply areas for bins to be collected. The clue is in the name Village - everyone is pleasant and always say hellow. Redrow created a walkway around the development ideal for walking and families to exercise It is great to live here!

Very quiet and friendly neighbourhood, but only downfall is kids are constantly playing in the road and not being cautious of cars.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I wish I had hired a professional independent snagger to look round the property before making the purchase. Because the aftercare is shite.

What is the best feature of your home:

Kitchen is literally the only room with no fault at all.

The roads around the development are spacious, the development is attractive, unfortunately once you get into the house there’s often lots of issues that need resolving and the drainage system is not good it blocks and the person who came to clear it for us said they visit about 20 households on the development every week because of the issue!

The kitchen and main bathroom and the high ceilings

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Please share one thing (or more) which you would change about your development:

I would have liked an opportunity to pick some extras. When I came to buy, the plots that were released were fully built and seemingly could not be modified. I would have liked to buy a plot that was at an earlier stage but one wasn't available. It seemed that houses were only released for sale as they almost finished
