"Greenbank feels like a village in the city, there’s such a friendly, inclusive atmosphere. We love living on Daisy Road. There have been family friendly street parties, Christmas time advent windows and there’s always a helping hand around to lend tools or last minute ingredients! The house has been a joy to decorate and we will really miss it. Our favourite memories are having friends gather round the dining table with us, and lounging around in the hammock in the garden on a sunny day."
