Kirkwood Homes at Countesswells, AB15

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

Only 10 mins to city centre and 10 minutes to Aberdeenshire - great location! Walking distance to Kingswells, Hazelhead and Cults with huge amount of walking areas from the front door including fields and forests. Regular bus route into city centre but could do with more transport links. Still a relatively new development but easy to find and deliveries are able to get here ok. Very quiet, no anti-social behaviour and all our neighbours are lovely.

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

Make sure to look for storage space - it’s extremely important!

What is the best feature of your home:

Storage space, size of rooms including height of ceiling and the quality of finish.

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

Private built houses are lovely, however had we known the amount of social housing which was to be built we may have looked elsewhere. So far amenities are poor with only one commercial unit occupied by Sainsburys. The area around the shop is in desperate need of a bin. Overall however, we love our home and the location - woodland walks on our doorstep and not too far from the city.
