First-time buyers highly recommend Northstone

My partner and I moved into our Northstone-built home in early July. As first time buyers, we were anxious about the buying process being challenging to navigate, but the team with whom we were in contact at Northstone were professional, candid and extremely helpful. We reserved our property one month prior to moving in and Northstone were not only clear and timely communicators but accomodating when we had a hiccup with the bank facilitating our mortgage. Since settling in over the summer, we have fallen in love with our first property and any issues - or "snags" as we now understand them to be called - were dealt with swiftly, within a week, after our 7-day check in. My partner and I are very grateful to the Northstone team and if you are on the fence about buying with them, please don't - the friendly team and modern, innovative properties are wonderful.

We couldn’t be happier with our Northstone home. It’s so refreshing to have a builder like Northstone enter the new build housing market, bringing a completely different approach compared to many traditional developers. We’re especially glad they’ve come to Lancaster.

Cant believe these people are thinking of using Barn Lane Golborne as an access to a building site. Your 100 meters from a corner and a school and its absolutely grid locked every day. If you are reading this you need to come and look before you do anything. Absolutely terrible what your thinking of doing impossible for trucks to go down there. If your thinking of using these id think again as their planning isnt very good and im sure this will be objected TERRIBLE PLANNING AVOID AT ALL COSTS

Christine · 3 November 2024

Agent replied · 24 September 2026

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. However we believe there may be some confusion, as Northstone does not have, and has never had, a residential development in Golborne to date. As such, the issues you have raised do not relate to any of our developments or operations. You may wish to check the name of the developer responsible and direct your feedback to the appropriate company, as they will be best placed to investigate your concerns regarding parking, access and highway management. We wish you all the best in resolving the matter. Kind regards, Northstone Customer Care Team

Disappointing complaints handling and lack of accountability

My experience with Northstone’s customer service and complaints handling has been extremely disappointing.

K · 21 July 2026

Agent replied · 24 September 2026

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry for the inconvenience and frustration caused. Following a review of the evidence provided, we were unable to establish that Northstone's site operations directly caused the damage to your vehicle and therefore could not accept liability for the repair costs. We also regret that you were dissatisfied with the way your complaint was handled and will use your feedback to help improve our customer and community engagement processes.

This company are trying to build a Housing Development off barn lane golborne. Nothing against housing developments but why are you trying to use access just down from a bend and a SCHOOL. This road is gridlocked most week days and the access your looking at is not wide enough other developers have tried. You wouldnt get a fire engine down there in the event of a fire so why you continue to try and use this access is not professional at all. You need to review what your trying to do and we will be opposing this We will be downloading a video as proof as you have no idea of the traffic on this road.

Had the most rudest experience ever me and my partner had turned up to look at the show home (because we were looking for our second home) at 3pm because the website said they were open till 4pm and the salesman was complaining that he’d been there since 9am and acting like we’d personally made him come in at that time and was owed 2 hours so he was going home to which he then had a go at my partner for daring to just drop in (which the website says you can do) Safe to say just from that experience we’ve been put off buying a house from Northstone completely just from that one interaction

UPDATE - Received a response to our complaint from the Sales Director. My partner and I are very happy with the resulting conversation and follow-up site visits. Moving the rating up to 3-stars solely due to the disappointing start., , Our experience with Graeme, the sales representative for the Airie development, was truly disappointing. On Saturday, we arrived at 3 pm and were taken aback when he abruptly closed the office, attributing it to owed hours from his early 9 am start, which involved helping someone move in. During our interaction, he appeared visibly frustrated and directed his anger towards us, two potential customers seeking a new home. This frustration surfaced when I pointed out the website, which prominently states a 4 pm closing time, suggesting that it might be worth updating. Graeme suggested that we "should've made an appointment" and that "you can't just turn up." However, Northstone's website explicitly encourages visitors to "Book a visit to see our beautiful show homes in person or simply call in.". This information is placed prominently under a header that says "We’d love to welcome you for a brew!". Right from the beginning, Graeme's demeanour was dismissive. It's important to note that his early start was not our fault, and it was disappointing that he chose to take this out on prospective customers. We were unable to view any show homes, and as a result of Graeme's behaviour, Northstone has now found a place on our "avoid" list. Just for clarity, we were not first-time buyers; we previously purchased from a large volume builder 3-4 years ago. We were exploring whether a smaller builder would provide a more personal experience and better-quality construction. We have already emailed a formal complaint to Northstone (I did this from the visitor parking bay out of sheer frustration) and are eagerly awaiting their response.

Non-responsible Developer

For two years, there has been a decline in the quality of customer service. Numerous tickets, even those on the inspection list, have been closed without the consent of the owner. Service representatives occasionally visit, but subsequently discontinue contact without resolving the issues. Currently, homeowners are instructed to contact suppliers directly to claim their warranties. I am tired of chasing and monitoring whether my tickets being close suddenly by the company.
