Testimonials

“Oswald Court is well planned, making good use of the space that’s there, and is extremely convenient for transport.”

“The spot they picked was well chosen for both people on their own and people with young families.”
My home is situated at one end of the development. The ground around the flats has been landscaped and new trees have been planted to complement the mature trees already there. There are very good schools around for children and a number of small shops close by. I’m within an easy distance of Sainsbury’s supermarket too. The location they’ve chosen makes it very easy to get anywhere by bus or train, and they’ve made sure to plan in enough parking space here as well.

“My flat is as I saw it on the plan; it’s to the quality and standard they said it would be.”
The three blocks of flats are well constructed and very well designed. The way they’ve organised them in a U-shape means that they are filled with a lot of natural light throughout. Each flat has a veranda giving us our own private outside space. Inside, I have every convenience I need.

I’d definitely recommend Stewart Milne Homes...
...because I've had a very good service from them and the quality of the flat is very good.

“Charleston is the whole package.”

“Before moving we had apprehension about new buildings in terms of whether they would be finished and completed to a high standard.”
We’ve been in over two months and we’re happy that everything has been done to a high standard, and we’ve had support around us for any snagging issues. People expect new builds to be quite small, but we have plenty of space. We were blown away by the size of the bathroom, kitchen and living room. In terms of insulation, coming from an older home we used to hear quite a lot from the neighbours, and we don’t hear anything here. We have a beautiful new home with lots of space that’s comfortable to live in.

“It’s very family friendly, homely and quite original.”
The layout of the development is brilliant. We have good access to a park across the street and there are nice, wide roads. On our street some of the houses are timber fronted and some are brick, so there are different styles, whereas with the other developers around us the streets just look like carbon copies. It’s very friendly here and we’re very happy.

I’d definitely recommend Stewart Milne Homes...
...because doing a part exchange only made it more comfortable for us as we had no stress trying to sell our home. We moved in without any worries or concerns and it was such an easy process.

“The location of Spen View just couldn’t get any better. It’s on the edge of the countryside and an idyllic place to live.”

“I love living in a more rural area; it’s just what I was looking for so I had no reservations about buying here.”
As I speak, I overlook farmland and can see sheep and cows as well as a farmhouse and farmers fields in the distance. It’s quite a small estate and not overpopulated so there’s not a great deal of traffic and that makes it’s a really peaceful place to live. There are no 3 properties the same on the development and no matter what road I go down, there’s no uniformity and that’s something I really like. My wife is thinking about retiring in a few years and I think this is going to give us a really nice place to be.

“Although Spen View is in the countryside, everything you could need is close by so living here would suit a variety of age groups.”
I’ve family who live around 4.5 miles away so I knew what the area would be like before I moved here. Being on this side of Congleton, which is only 2.5 miles away, it’s the more rural side and gave me just what I was looking for. If I travel another .25 miles there are local restaurants, local shops and shopping facilities. A playground is just about to be put in so that will be a great addition and something my grandchildren will enjoy when they come to visit. A local pub/restaurant/indoor soft play area is about 150 yards from my front door and the high school is very close by as well. There’s even a lake a mile way which is an ideal place to go for a walk.

I’d definitely recommend Stewart Milne Homes...
...because the location is wonderful, I’ve got the best of both worlds, peace and quiet at home but shops and restaurants just a short distance away.

“The residents said Monarchs Rise was a neighbourly, quiet and cosy place to be and that gave me the confidence to buy here.”

“It was great to hear how happy people were with their new homes.”
When I was considering buying my home, I met a few of the residents who were very friendly and who introduced themselves. They told me how they enjoyed living here and how happy they were with their houses, they said it was a very neighbourly, quiet and cosy place to be which reassured me and it felt the right place to buy.

“Monarchs Rise feels a bit different from the usual new build developments, it’s got lots of character.”
It’s a very modern looking estate and all the houses have a different finish. It’s not all mono block and white like other developments and I think it’s got lots of character. It also feels very green and fresh and as well as being clean and quiet, the development is quite private.

“I’d previously lived in a city so it’s been refreshing to move to such a friendly area.”
The town is really nice and there’s lots more there than I first realised. The mainstream shops are nearby and even the people working in them are friendly, they say hi and have a little chat which is lovely. I’ve not been used to that and it’s something I welcome very much. There are lots of places to take children out and there are the open spaces for those who like to walk their dogs, it’s feels very safe here.

I’d definitely recommend Stewart Milne Homes...
...because I’m very pleased with my new home, it’s in such a friendly place and Stewart Milne Homes has been very attentive to my needs.

“Den View is a good place to bring up a family.”

“It’s just the right size and it’s in a good area.”
It’s not a massive estate, it’s limited to fifty new homes, and all of the houses are nicely finished and with good views. Within a ten-minute walk we have access to excellent nursery facilities and schools and that’s going to be ideal for us in the spring and summer.

I’d definitely recommend Stewart Milne Homes...
...because I've had a good experience so far and the house is good quality.

“For my first home, my house is everything I’d hoped for.”

“It’s the perfect size for me and everything was included.”
It was nice that I didn’t have to worry about getting carpets or upgrading tiles and worktops. I had built-in wardrobes as well, so that massively cut off the price of putting more stuff in the house. As it’s disability accessible, the doors, stairs and hallway are a lot wider, so in the future if I have friends or family over who need that access it will be easy for me to host them.

“There’s nothing I’d change, it’s just perfect.”
The houses are beautiful. They’re different to what I’ve seen before, with very aesthetically pleasing colours and build. It’s all really well thought out and the location is great for me too. I’m not too far from where my family lives and I have a great commute to work. It’s central to Manchester and Liverpool so it’s very easy.

“I’d always been told by people who’d bought new builds to expect delays and expect things wrong with the house, but it wasn’t an issue for me.”
From beginning to end, it’s been brilliant. I was told a date and the date didn't move, so all my expectations were met. Any snags were dealt with quickly and they’ve all been really helpful.

I’d definitely recommend Stewart Milne Homes...
...because there was no change in my move in date from day one, and for the price everything is included. Everything is top specification and the people on site have been amazing; they sorted everything out so quickly. I was very pleased.

“Letham Views is a nice, quiet place to live in.”

“I’m looking forward to the surrounding area being finished and seeing what it will look like completed.”
I was happy with the quick time frame of getting in, and it was good to have regular contact from them throughout. Letham Views itself suits my lifestyle. It’s peaceful, and there are parks around us, so we have a lot of places to walk. There are also plenty of shops that aren’t too far away.

I’d definitely recommend Stewart Milne Homes... because they were easy to deal with.

“Calderwood II is a very friendly, beautiful area that caters for everything we’re looking for at this stage of our lives.”

“We didn’t want to live in a busy, built up area.”
We did have concerns about what it would be like moving out of the city and into a smaller, rural community, but with such good access to Edinburgh, either driving, or going by bus or train, commuting is easy. We can get away from the city and enjoy more relaxing time with the family. In fact, we barely go into the city anymore.

“We’re in a beautiful setting, right next to the country park.”
It was a big selling point for us when we viewed the house and had a walk through the park. They’ve opened up a lot of pathways from the development to go into it, so it’s great to get out and about with the family. They’ve also planned for a gym and a gastropub in the future, so there will be a lot to do.

“We have two young kids and it’s the perfect environment for raising children.”
We wanted to move somewhere with a lot of people who, like us, were also raising families. Stewart Milne Homes has worked very hard to create a nice, friendly community. They’ve had planning permission to build a school, and we have access to a little community garden where kids learn to grow vegetables. There’s also a café right in the heart of the development, a children’s park right around the corner. They’ve provided a large, green area where the kids can play football. They can safely play outside because the whole estate is designed with cul-de-sacs and narrow, winding streets so cars can’t race around them. The way it’s done, even the fencing in the gardens encourages you to speak to your neighbours, so it’s a very social place to live.

I’d definitely recommend Stewart Milne Homes...because the experience I’ve had with the sales team has been good, and the standard of the house is nice.

“Living in Charleston, Cove you have a good balance.”

“It’s handy for the city centre and we can see the beach from our house.”

Years ago, my parents owned a Stewart Milne home in Glasgow, so I knew about them as a developer before, and as we had friends in the area we bought here on impulse. I work in the city, so it’s convenient and well connected by public transport. We also have good access to amenities like local supermarkets, hairdressers and convenience stores on the development, so we don’t have to go far. The fact we’re on the coast and by the beach means it’s handy for walking the dog and it’s really good for relaxing.

I’d definitely recommend Stewart Milne Homes... because the whole process has been easy.

“If you are looking for a new home that’s easy to heat and maintain and one which is in a very good area, then buying from Stewart Milne Homes at Dunnottar Park is an excellent choice.”

“It’s a nice, family friendly development that has a bit of an exclusive feel to it.”
Dunnottar Park is a modern development with grassy areas around which are appealing to the eye. It’s in a good location and as it’s central to the town it’s very easy to walk to the shops and train station. At the same time the development almost feels like an exclusive housing estate because it’s not in a congested housing area but set on its own. There’s quite a family feel here and as there are a variety of house styles there’s something to suit everyone. I’ve gone for a mid terrace house, that suited what I wanted, and I think because it’s up with the latest standards, it’s going to be very easy to heat and to maintain in the longer term.

“The support and care from the people working here has been second to none.”
Fiona and Darren the site manager have both been absolutely fantastic. Their communication has been good and the support they’ve given has been great. They’ve checked I’m okay and if I’ve had any issues or concerns then I know I can speak to them and they will act on any little thing I’ve raised. They’ve just got good people skills.

I’d definitely recommend Stewart Milne Homes...
...because I’ve got a new home that’s going to be easy for me to maintain and the people working here that I’ve met along the way have been so helpful and lovely to deal with.
