They found their perfect match at our Oakleigh Fields development in Carlisle, choosing a Sanderson home that suited their lifestyle and future plans. From the first visit to move‑in day, the couple experienced seamless support from the Story Homes team, making their purchase smooth and stress‑free.
We were looking for a quality new build in Carlisle, and Oakleigh Fields immediately stood out. I’d heard great things from a couple of my teammates who had bought Story homes in the past, and I was also aware of the company as a sponsor of the club. The Sanderson home had the space and layout we wanted, and overall, it just felt exactly like what we were after.
We visited the on-site Marketing Suite and Amanda, our Sales Executive, was brilliant. She was welcoming and took the time to understand our needs and what we were looking for, explaining all aspects of the process and how she would support us at every step. It was during this first meeting that she introduced us to Damien at WiseOne Mortgages and Watson Ramsbottom Solicitors.
Honestly, it made a huge difference. The on‑site team kept us informed at every stage – from Reservation to Completion and beyond – and were always there to answer questions, no matter how small. You could tell they genuinely wanted us to help and provide a positive experience.
Yes – we chose to work with Damien at WiseOne Mortgages for our mortgage advice, and Watson Ramsbottom as our solicitor. Both were recommended through Story Homes and provided free expert support. Damien helped us secure the right mortgage with patience and clarity, while Watson Ramsbottom made the legal side smooth and stress-free. Having trusted professionals on hand took a huge amount of pressure off us. The whole process was made easy and with seamless support from all.
We’re really happy. Our home at Oakleigh Fields is exactly what we hoped for – spacious, well‑finished, and perfect for our lifestyle. And the whole process, from Reservation to Completion, was much more straightforward than we expected thanks to the team behind us. This has gone past the day we moved in and now if we have any problems, we just contact the Customer Aftercare team who support us with any problem we may have.
Definitely. The combination of a great home and an excellent support team made all the difference. We felt looked after from start to finish, and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome.
