Traditionally, neighbours Chiswick and Ealing dominated the spotlight when it came to West London. But thanks to a burgeoning property scene, plentiful parks and stellar transport links, Acton is finally stepping out of the shadows. Where are the best places to live in Acton?

Nice flats, but management and price lets it down.
Area is fine for takeaways, basic shops and cafes. A big bonus are Chiswick Business park 10 min away, Grovesnor Park 10 min away, Chicswick high street 20min away, and Acton Town tube station right at your doorstep. It’s a well lit area with lots of transport links.
Please review your development:
The flats themselves are great. Clean, relatively new, spacious, and everything inside works. L&Q management makes it a not great experience. the rent agreement process is a faff, they are near impossible to get a hold of, our property manager ignores our emails. For the 1750 we pay a month for a 2-bed I think we’ll find something just as nice in either a better manager building or a more central location. It’s a pity because I do like the flat, but it doesn’t feel like value for money.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Management will milk every penny from you that they can, especially when you leave.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
They have barely responded. It takes 3 emails to get a response and usually that reply is “I am not your property manager anymore, contact this person instead”. We’ve had 3 managers in a year and none of them announced when they left/started.
