Quinton Court, TN13

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

Sevenoaks has a wide selection of shops and restaurants all within 5 minutes walk of the development. Knole house and park provides excellent open space for walking etc. just 10 minutes walk from the development. The mainline railway station is 10 minutes walk away and has excellent links and rapid service to London. The M25 Junction 5 is just 15 minutes away by car. The only disadvantages are the hilly terrain, busy traffic and expensive parking in the centre of Sevenoaks and at the station

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

Limited issues have been dealt with efficiently and promptly.

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

There is little interaction between residents. We were told there would be visitor parking by the sales team but this was untrue. Lack of a concierge may be a disadvantage. Management charges are quite high.

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

The development is very close to the town center and to the station. The walk to the station is , however, via a narrow pavement near busy road with almost no crossings. Many nice shops and restaurants nearby. Great weekend market. Large Waitrose and M&S just minutes away. Food delivery is available but time slots are limited (Deliveroo), so it may be hard to get a lunch during a weekday.

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

There were a few minor issues with the property, but the management team was very responsive and addressed all of them.

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

There are only a couple of parking slots, which have electric charger. I wish there were more, as I had to opt out of a hybrid car option because of that.

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

Sufficient essential shops, healthcare, and banks, good restaurants. Friendly people in community.

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

For delivery, use the lift next to car park helps.

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

The property is located near a high street. There are shops, supermarkets, restaurants, a leisure centre and other sport facilities without a few minutes' walk. It's also a few minutes' walk to the Sevenoaks train station. So, the property is at a very convenient location.

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

The management team is responsive, polite and helpful. The operative who recently fixed some minor issues in the property was polite and diligent.

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

We purchased a show flat. We literally got everything in the property as displayed. So, we had cooking utensils, TV, wine, food, glasses, seasonings, basically everything you need to live in a property on Day One. We even got some new clothes hung in the wardrobes! We didn't expect all these when we decided to purchase the property with furniture. So, buying a show flat from Berkeley may be a good option.
