resident testimonials
dear environ
It is now over 15 months since we moved on to Oaks Hamlet and having just had our 2 Christmas at home, we thought we would reflect on why we still love the property we purchased.
We were the first residents to Oaks Hamlet and made a point of welcoming other new buyers with a needy tea or coffee, as we never seem to find time to do this on the day of the move. Since that day, we have all seemed to get on extremely well, to the point where we now tend to socialise on certain occasions.
As with all properties, there is always something to do and we decided to build a deck to the rear garden to bring the Lounge and dIning area together at the same height as the doors. Having planned the project, we statrted work and to our surprise day after day, we had a very willing band of volunteers to help dig the footings for the decking that has worked out extremely well.
The designers Environ of Oaks Hamlet have brought complete strangers together to form a great village community and one that can only be described as enviable. We all have different standards but a common aim, to continue the village feel and to help one another through good and bad, without being obvious.
Apart from the design and build quality our house works well for us. We seem to utilise all of the property when previously we have tended to have rooms that were rarely used. Irrespective of the current market one thing is certain that prices will return, nevertheless we have no intention or desire to live elsewhere. We find Oaks Hamlet irresistible with great neighbours, the village atmosphere, together with its boundary next to the Country Park plus the convenience of Kings Hill. By combining all these elements, we feel we have the Environ 'Designer Label' of houses.
We are very fortunate to have found Environ, Oaks Hamlet and the new friends we have. We firmly believe that as more properties sell the hamlet will further enhance.

I moved into this house just over a year ago having already lived in Kings Hill for the previous ten years. I had decided not to move further afield from this area because I had made many friends during that time and was part of a vibrant Christian Fellowship here in Kings Hill.
Once I had decided to move I looked at old and new properties in Kings Hill and eventually fell in love with this house, partly because of the position, but also because of the large open space on the ground floor and the ability to close off rooms with the special sliding pocket doors between the sitting room, office and kitchen-diner. The house also felt solid and well built with splendid large sash windows which let in plenty of light. The garden was especially pretty and well stocked with cottage plants.
Since living here I have felt safe and part of a special community with kind and friendly neighbours. Altogether I am happy here and have settled in well.
The staff and workmen have been outstandingly helpful and small snags which have occurred during this time have been dealt with promptly and efficiently.

Having lived on Shoesmith Lane for a year I can honestly say I have never lived in a more friendly community we have had numerous get togethers and I feel that I among good friends.
A lot of this must be down to the thoughtful layout of the houses and the way Environ have designed the landscape.
I have no hesitation in recommending this development.

Moving to Oaks Hamlet is one of the best decisions we have ever made. The house and surrounding community are exactly what we were looking for and our neighbours have become friends for life. I would definitely recommend an Environ home.
