Nice house with good appliances The house is new so I am the first tenant which is great The move in was smooth This exquisite house exudes timeless charm with its impeccable design and meticulous attention to detail. From the graceful exterior adorned with blooming gardens to the luxurious interior featuring high ceilings and tasteful decor, every corner radiates elegance and comfort. With its serene ambiance and modern amenities, this home is truly a haven worth cherishing.

Simple Life is home away from home.

Building structure is basic just like any UK new build. For the facilities, I like that the houses come with some basic integrated furnishings. The property management is average, for the times we’ve had issues, we’ve mostly had to follow up like twice before the building company came to address the issues. But they do a thorough job when they come.

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

There aren’t much local shops around, so we have to travel quite a distance to get things needed. The area is quiet, peaceful. It’s also far to the train station and just 1 bus goes through here so you need to plan your time around that if you don’t have your personal car. Parking is okay, bin collection is also okay. There’s little to no interaction between neighbors. Everyone just does their thing.

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

They’ve been proactive when messages are sent to them. And when we follow up with them on the building contractors, they immediately address this.

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

I do not have anything I wish I had known before moving in.

The design is nice . The map of the house is pretty Facilities & building management are ok . The presence of two toilets is helpful. But I think . The size of the rooms can be a bigger and to be taken from the garden ( I mean the garden is large ).

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

The quality of the house is nice . It’s really a comprehensive property . It’s just one problem regarding the public transport links . The buses are rarely come to our area .

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

It was good They usually sort it And they repair most of the issues

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

Nothing specific Try to know all the facilities of the area when you move

Excellent homes

Jessica C (Tenant)

I live in the 2 bedroom irwell property, I love the open plan layout downstairs and all of the appliances being built in and hidden away. Lovely view of the back garden through the large French doors. The property management is so easy through the simple life app, the communication and customer service is excellent.

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

Loved every second in my new home. Plenty of shops nearby and places to walk my dog. Very quiet street with friendly neighbours and a lovely view of the Pennines. Unfortunately the public transport has been little to none in the area for a number of years but hoping that changes with the new development coming to the area.

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

The admin team have been excellent. I noticed a leak coming through the living room ceiling. However, the contractor/plumber hasn't been in contact and tends to just arrive unannounced.

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

That although the rent may appear high for the area, it is more than worth it for the property and how cost efficient it is.

The development is well built and beautifully aesthetic. There is a good sense of community and togetherness. The gardens and homes are quite large for new builds. Property management and facilities and top notch! Any issues or query we have they sort asap!

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

There is a good range of small local shops near the house. We are also 5 mins away from the town centre with access to large stores and travel links.

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

They have responded quickly and efficiently to all queries

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

I wish we knew the process of how to get the bins.
