Heather View, HD9

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

Love living up here, its very out the way and very scenic. We moved from an old barn converted into town houses that had an amazing view out over holmfirth. So to come up here and still have the landscape aspect was brill. Living on the street is nice. Theres a lovely community feel from everyone par one weedy boy racer from the council lettings on the street whos always driving like an idiot up and down the street and fighting in the middle of it (hey suppose it gives an entertainment aspect but not what i paid nearly 300k for a tiny house for). (And i also Wouldn't mind but the kurbs are still 2m high (overexagereat slightly, however it felt 2m when my alloy caught them) and pot holes all over the place as jones homes haven't come back to finish the road (even though all homes are now occupied). It also would have been nicer if they'd have planned something like a pond or a residents park for the children.

It’s a nice area in which to live and the existing villagers have been very friendly and welcoming. The local pub is a Jen with friendly staff.

I have been issuing Jones homes with a list of snags ever fortnight for 11 months. Only recently have some of the snags been addressed.

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

Hold back some of the cost of the house until all your post move snags are resolved.

Heather View is in an enviable setting, located in a lovely rural village with plenty of options to explore the surrounding areas within reach of the main cities such as Sheffield and Huddersfield. The location was the reason for purchase, and being able to take advantage of the government help to buy certainly made my move become a reality for which without, wouldn't have been possible. I cannot comment any negatives I have experienced, just certain issues with the finish of the property which will be mentioned in the next section. Neighbours, rural setting, convenience to larger towns/cities make Heather View a great place to call home.

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

Any issues reported have been dealt with in a reasonable amount of time.

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

How environmentally friendly the houses are built to.

The local area and estate is beautiful. One of the finest places in Yorkshire! However I wouldn’t rate Jones homes as they have not been efficient at all.

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

No, some yes. But still trying to get things complete!

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

You should get snagging complete before moving in.
