All around positive

The houses have a modern layout, very comfortable with all top appliances and even a guest bathroom on the lower level. When I raised my concerns, the property maintenance manager followed through until each and concern was handled. Any visitor or friend would give so many positive complements about the place and whole community layout.

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

There are so man close by shops coop is a couple min drive, Aldi and BQ are a 10 min walk. The bus stop is a 3 min walk , 15 minutes to the train station, or 20 min by bike . Parking is plenty in front or tonthe side of house. Just had couple of new build issues, property maintenance were very professional about fixing all.

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

On viewing day, my family and I took an uber to town in order to have lunch. :) that became our leisure walk because it is pleasant and close. On the negative side, I wished the rent wouldn't have increased to the amount it did.

What is the best feature of your home:

Simple, nice, has 2 bathrooms and a guest WC on the ground floor, which until now I haven't seen in a reasonably priced property

The property management has been first class, the properties are great and neighbours are all lovely. The design of the property has been great and I have been very happy living here over the last year. It is also very convenient to get out into the countryside.

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

Everything is great apart from parking for visitors can be a little problematic. Watling grange is quiet and convenient to get into Harrogate and beyond.

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

Quickly and efficiently, and checking in to make sure items have been resolved

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

There is nothing that I could have been informed of in advance

Both building and property management are very responsive and friendly. It's easy to have any issues resolved. Facilities, I haven't seen or used any. For design, it seems to work. Except for the parking part. This place needs an ASDA sized parking lot thrown in to help. Overall though the place is excellent. Location is great.

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

The area is great. So far the few interactions with neighbors has been nice. Management is very responsive and friendly. It's easy to have any issues resolved. For parking, It's kinda crammed around here. Bin collection can be hit or miss. Sometimes they'll just forget the entire area. It hasn't been a major problem though.

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

I can't think of anything off the top of my head currently.

What is the best feature of your home:

Having a fenced in yard. Excellent for any pet owner.

The design of the property is well thought out and open plan which works for me as a mum of a 2 year old. Very spacious and facilities included are great. Property management is very up to date and the team are always willing to help you with any issues.

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

Close to shops, parks, post office and public transport. Very quiet even though we live near a main road and very safe.

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

Everything has been great since we moved in however there are some social housing issues where there is anti social behavior from young teenage children which can be intimidating.

What is the best feature of your home:

Open plan house and spacious garden and garage storage

Lovely new built houses

Lovely development, bit far from town. There is pathways to walk or go for a run and green areas around the development. not much of close supermarkets around. The house’s standards are not built perfectly as there are few defects and improvements that they can work on.

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

No play grounds in the development yet. I believe one will be built soon. Private parking available.

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

None that I can think of. They respond to our emails quickly

What is the best feature of your home:

Very efficient and doesn’t cost us much for the bills
