Renting with NO DEPOSIT We know that moving home can be costly, that's why we have partnered with Flatfair to offer our tenants the option to move into their perfect new home with no deposit. With Flatfair, you skip the traditional deposit and just pay 28% + VAT of one month's rent—it's a simpler, more flexible way to move in. This frees up cash for the things that matter such as new furniture or home décor.

From Northampton, trains to London Euston take about an hour, or you can drive to Milton Keynes and catch a train to the City in under 40 minutes. Heading north, Birmingham New Street and Birmingham International Airport are only about an hour by train.

Great experience overall.
This is a great building and the design, I would say too many doors by the kitchen area however this is great.
The location where the shed is it could have been down the garden.
Overall, this comes with solar panels and great space inside. Most houses are smaller in the bedrooms but this is great.
Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Compared to where we came from, this is so close to shops and restaurants. Very nice calm traffic as well.
Families around and my kids can connect and play with others.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
We haven’t had any problems as far as we know lol.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I had known that the house next door to us has the same price but more spacious garden. I would have gone for that one.

Best letting consultant
I cannot recommend Claudin Luchetti highly enough. From the very beginning of my house move, she was professional, approachable, and incredibly supportive. She kept me informed throughout the entire process, responded promptly to my questions, and made what could have been a very stressful experience feel smooth and manageable.
Claudin’s kindness, patience, and dedication to providing excellent customer service truly stood out. She went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled efficiently, and I always felt reassured knowing she was there to help.
Thank you, Claudin, for your outstanding support and professionalism. It has been a pleasure working with you, and I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a reliable and caring letting consultant.
Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The area is a lovely place to live, with a good range of local shops, supermarkets, cafés and restaurants all within a short drive. There are plenty of parks and open green spaces nearby, making it ideal for families and outdoor activities. Transport links are excellent, with easy access to major roads and regular bus services, making commuting convenient. The street itself is quiet, friendly and well maintained. Parking has generally been good, bin collections are reliable, and I have not experienced any significant anti-social behaviour. Traffic noise is minimal, creating a peaceful environment to live in. Overall, it’s a safe, convenient and welcoming neighbourhood that I would happily recommend.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The building management has always been responsive, professional and helpful whenever I have raised any questions or concerns. Any issues were acknowledged promptly, communication was clear throughout, and they worked to resolve matters as quickly and efficiently as possible. Overall, I have been pleased with the level of service and support provided.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I had known before moving in how responsive, professional, and supportive the building management team is\. Any questions or concerns are acknowledged promptly, communication is clear throughout, and issues are resolved quickly and efficiently, which would have made the move\-in process even more reassuring\.

House seems a bit rushed in finishing
House seems a bit rushed in finishing, there’s small defects around the house. Garden size is lovely but we’re not sure what part of the grass we’re responsible for on the outside of the house and have enquired but still waiting response. Kitchen, bedrooms and bathroom are a great size though feel lounge could be bigger to give more opportunity for a dinning table so it doesn’t feel cramped. Otherwise we love the house and the space and that we get to make it our own! We’re all enjoying and thriving here and looking forward to having a lovely garden for summer.
Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Plenty of outdoor spaces and nice to walk around the development. No traffic noise, parking is great for us, we know there is a bus route near us. Walking distance to shell, short drive to main shops. Enjoy the greenery in the area a lot
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
I sent an email a few days ago asking about the grass and another query but have not heard back.
We had an issue with the WiFi which we were assisted on though it awkwardly happened over the Easter holiday and had to wait a while for assistance
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
That we needed our passports before check in, that we can’t personalise the broadband, otherwise that’s it!
