Spinning Fields, CM7

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

We chose Spinning Fields as it was just a 10 minute drive to work for me in town but set in the more rural part of Braintree. Walking into town is about 25 minutes but local transport is also accessible. There is still a lot of building work being carried out as the next phase of the development is underway but our road is complete. Road and driveways nice and wide unlike some developments where houses are literally on top of each other and roads barely take two way traffic.

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

We have had a couple of minor issues but they have been dealt with in a timely fashion and contractors that have come into my home have been polite and respectful,

As a new build we had an issue getting the property registered with Royal Mail in good time. As soon as you know you are going to sign a tenancy on a new build contact Royal Mail and Council Tax straight away.

Great location and a quiet neighborhood. I like the fact that you have your own parking area which is big enough for two cars. Lovely parks around and nice walking area for dogs.
