No privacy in gardens, all buildings overlooking each other’s back gardens

No privacy in gardens, all buildings overlooking each other’s back gardens. Need bollards and signs to stop pavements being blocked by cars and work vehicles. Cannot change supplier for heating and hot water, we have no choice we have to use Eon, one of the worst companies I have ever dealt with. After asking them 3 times to give me access to my online account I still cannot access it. They sent me my contract with someone else’s contract in the same envelope! Their bill statements make no sense whatsoever, I have no idea what I am paying each month. They sent me a message saying water will be cut off due to maintenance, then they send a message saying maintenance canceled, then they send a message saying don’t forget the water will be cut off due to maintenance! It took over 7 months for our snagging list to be dealt with but still have an issue with the front door.

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

Supermarket within short driving distance. Easy access to motorway and airport. Currently no local facilities within walking distance. Main road already busy being used as a rat run in and out of Exeter. People already dumping vehicles on pavements. Ignorant neighbors in rental properties throwing cigarette butts everywhere and parking on my driveway when they think I won’t catch them.

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

Weirdly no under stairs storage which would have been useful. Loft space is not boarded out so only very light small items can be put in the loft space. Parking bays instead of driveways tend to be abused by neighbors and visitors so be prepared to find ignorant people parking on your property.

What is the best feature of your home:

We love having a garden and love the Plot and design of the house. Wish the garden was a bit bigger though.

The experience from sales to owning has been nothing but horrendous. The sales team misold the house to us, then threatened to pull our purchase because we raised this as an issue and lied about us to the professionals involved in the transaction. The house itself though looks great and is in a perfect location for us. The house didn't have anything key wrong with it - we could live in the house no problem. But there were many issues that needed resolving, some of which still aren't sorted 6 months after moving in. Dealing with the development just feels like an endless battle of chasing chaser emails to even get a reply, let alone any work done. I've even raised a complaint and they've breached the response time.

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

The area is close enough to Exeter to be able to access without issues whilst having the distance from the centre. Being right on the motorway is also nice for traveling! Downsides are it's still being built up so there's a lot of mess and building work around.

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

How bad the customer service was from both sales and the customer service team.

What is the best feature of your home:

The house itself looks nice from the outside and the location is great.

Happy we bought here

Love the design of our house, they look modern and are very spacious inside and out. Another good point is having 2 allocated parking spaces. A few bad points are the paths still haven't been filled in making it hard to park the car and the roads have many pot holes even though our side of the development has been done for around 6 months.

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

Very convenient location next to m5. However nothing in easy walking distance. Pinhoe is half an hour walk which is a pain when you just need milk. There is a pub 15 minutes walk away. I feel like a small shop or something would do very well here.

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

Any snags and things that need fixing take a very long time. We're still waiting on a few things and we've been here a year and a half. We understand they're very busy just don't expect them to be done straight away.

What is the best feature of your home:

I have a few best features. Having 2 parking spaces, a large garden and the modern layout of the house. I thought having 2 bedrooms both with en-suites was excessive but it's actually turned out to be an amazing idea!
