Use the facebook closed groups to find out local trades in the development

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

Convenient location, but you would need to own a car due to a lack of safe walking routes and public transport. The residents group are putting in a lot of effort with the city council to get this resolved.

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

Very quiet on the estate, even with lots of kids and increasing traffic.

What is the best feature of your home:

Convenient location: next to main links to Perth and Aberdeen, but also near parks, woods and countryside.

A quiet and pleasant countryside estate

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

A quiet neighbourhood where parking is not a problem. It is served by a small local shop and there are mainstream supermarkets within a couple of miles. The development is not currently served by a bus service and I think this would be a benefit. It is possible to walk approximately 1.5 miles to a bus stop but this is on unlit country roads with little or no footpaths.

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

No show house available to view for the property purchased.

What is the best feature of your home:

Well designed layout for a compact house. Decent sized lounge with a good layout. Also the is an En Suite shower room to the master bedroom.
