Very well stocked Spar which is so handy, hotel less than 10mins walk which has bar and good quality food. Lots of open spaces, 3 parks for kids plus football pitch. Now that bus service is in place links to town are even easier

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

Convenient location, but you would need to own a car due to a lack of safe walking routes and public transport. The residents group are putting in a lot of effort with the city council to get this resolved.

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

Very quiet on the estate, even with lots of kids and increasing traffic.

What is the best feature of your home:

Convenient location: next to main links to Perth and Aberdeen, but also near parks, woods and countryside.

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

A quiet neighbourhood where parking is not a problem. It is served by a small local shop and there are mainstream supermarkets within a couple of miles. The development is not currently served by a bus service and I think this would be a benefit. It is possible to walk approximately 1.5 miles to a bus stop but this is on unlit country roads with little or no footpaths.

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

No show house available to view for the property purchased.

What is the best feature of your home:

Well designed layout for a compact house. Decent sized lounge with a good layout. Also the is an En Suite shower room to the master bedroom.

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

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

when bus service would be provided

What is the best feature of your home:

I like the size of my home and garden. My street isnt uniform and feels really private.
