Our Vendors' Perspective -

"This home has been in our family since 1986, and it holds countless fond memories for us. Our family grew up here, and the woodlands provided a wonderful playground for our daughters; they absolutely loved exploring it as kids. The tower, with its unique spiral staircase, has always been a special feature, offering an amazing vantage point to see far and wide, including the castle. It's a reluctant sale for us, as this house has been such a significant part of our lives.

"Living at Kearsney Court has been a unique experience, balancing private lives with a friendly and helpful community atmosphere. We, as residents, have always supported each other and enjoyed our interactions. The Kearsney Court Management Ltd. holds meetings a couple of times a year, which are always social and friendly events. Each house has a representative who acts as a director within the company, ensuring everyone has a voice. Decisions on communal matters, such as hedge maintenance or new plant purchases, are made collectively at these meetings. It's a collaborative and enjoyable process that adds to the charm of living here."
