Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Not enough parking. Only enough driveway space for 1 car when most households own 2 cars. This then means people park on the street making it difficult to drive/ see oncoming traffic.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Asked about the development of the football pitch on the estate. Was lead to believe by sales team it was going to be returfed but in fact a club house and 2 large car parks were built. Lovell promised to finish the car park and club house, but 2 years on there are still piles of bricks and unfinished fencing.
What is the best feature of your home:
Good value for money. Good sized 3 bed for a reasonable price.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Principal point is well situated on the edge of telford in Wellington. A short drive from the Wrekin, and a stones throw from the town centre there are a good number of shops easily accessible whatever your choice of travel. In terms of location the only downside may be being a few miles out of the range for delivery from restaurants such as Nandos and the like meaning you have to drive into telford centre to collect should that want to indulge. Within the principle point development for the most part parking seems to match the demand although the are a few streets which do become a single weaving lane particularly in the evenings due to cars being parked on both sides of the road narrowing the free way. We also are looking forward to the roads being surfaced hopefully once the final developments are complete as it is quite a bumpy ride driving within the development - particularly on burgess road. There is a children's play facility which was constructed early on but however it still has restrictions on access which renders it most useless with eager kids waiting and wanting to enjoy what appears to be a finished facility. We are still waiting for this opening.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Quite slow but to address the issue. We had to persistently pester them however we’ve only had one problem.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
A little more about the landlord and how they deal with tenants
