Building works is all the time as something never gets done properly so they have to keep redoing it each house is different so every design is different the park they built on here is much either it’s a little park could’ve had a lot more on it really and could’ve done with a shop aswell

Good but rushed

I think it’s very well planned out some jobs were majorly rushed and Iam still waiting of some of these jobs to be done also the drive ways weren’t really thought out nor the gardens can’t really comment on the facilities on the site as the park still isn’t built yet. Our drive way is ment to fit six cars that fine if your stick thin and don’t have children but we all do.

Barrett homes are in my top tier of builders. I've lived in several new-build houses and viewed many more, so I've seen my fair share of dysfunctional ones. The design is very modern and the layout practical, creating a very good flow. The house has been expertly built to utilise every inch of space making even the smaller homes feel roomy. There are both front and rear hallways, eliminating drafts from external doors and providing privacy for cloakrooms. (No one wants open the cloakroom door directly into a lounge full of people watching television, whilst the letterbox rattles. It's also no fun to have leaves/mud/snow blow onto the sofa when you answer the front door) The kitchen, if not built in, has space for full sized appliances (no struggling with a tiny dishwasher!) and the under-stairs cupboard is big enough for all your "chore supplies" or as a pantry. There's also room for a table or breakfast bar. There's a well placed alcove in the main bedroom next to one of the windows which is perfect as a dressing area and an over stairs cupboard offers extra storage. The smallest bedroom is big enough for a double bed and still leaving plenty of space for other furniture and movement around it all, and again there's a storage cupboard. There are windows in the main bathroom of almost all houses, so less chance of dampness and odours; those that don't, like some en-suites or cloaks, have up-to-date extraction fans that do the job just as efficiently. As for the built in shower, it's my favourite feature. Barrett's made THE best choice installing this particular type. They are so good that I'd put them on par with having a relaxing bath. The garden comes ready turfed with a shed and rotary washing line. Whilst not vast in size the lawn is adequate and manageable. There's enough room for summer parties and every home has access via a rear gate, this is very useful given current restrictions on meeting inside. Naturally the homes come with the 10 year NHBC guarantee but I do not forsee any major issues given Barrett's stellar reputation and from my current 14 month experience. All homes will have minor snags and with the builders still on site, these are dealt with efficiently. Overall, I would, and already have recommended this development to others, 9 out of 10! Please note: There are different styles of home so some features may not be relevant to all houses. e.g. the smallest room of a 5-bed house may be a study and only big enough for a single bed.

Very happy with the plot and the houses are all very nice, gardens could be slightly more private and maybe the provision of additional parking spaces for visitors would be useful. The 2 year guarantee from Barratt is good, having had a minor plumbing issue since moving in, they arranged to fix the issue under the warranty.
