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

Before moving in, I wish I had known more about the local noise levels during specific times, as it can vary. While viewing, it's challenging to gauge the day-to-day sounds. This insight would have helped me better prepare for potential disruptions. My tip for new neighbors is to explore the neighborhood during different times to understand the ambient noise levels and daily rhythms. It's a valuable aspect that goes beyond the initial viewing experience.

The area is great, just 10 minutes walk and we are in the middle of an historic market town. 5 minutes in the other direction is the local retail park and on top of that, there is beautiful countryside with miles and miles of footpaths and bridleways which are part of T50. Also just 10 minutes drive of the famous Ironbridge Gorge. The local council are very responsive to reports of any fly tipping/graffiti and are usually on site with 24 hours. On the whole, all very good. The down side to our estate? The parking is diabolical. 2 bed houses have 1 space 3 bed houses have 2 spaces, there is no where for visitors to park and thi is such a shame.

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

The garden is terrible due to no apparent drainage and land management cave once, threw grass seed down which rotted..and never sorted the drainage.

If the garden was decent and we had ample parking, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend anyone to move to Bluebell Manor

One thing I wish I had known before moving in is the frequency and duration of construction projects in the area. While the neighborhood appeared peaceful during my initial visits, I later discovered that there were ongoing infrastructure developments nearby. The noise and disruption caused by construction activities sometimes affected the tranquility of the surroundings. Being aware of this beforehand would have allowed me to better manage my expectations and plan accordingly
