A Guide to Living in Buckinghamshire

One of the standout features is the proximity to shopping and entertainment. The building is just a stone’s throw away from the bustling city center, where you can find an array of shops, restaurants, and cultural attractions. The ease of access to local amenities has made my daily life incredibly convenient.

Transportation is another area where this location truly shines. The building is conveniently situated near public transportation hubs, making it a breeze to navigate the city and beyond. Whether it’s the train station or bus stops, everything is within walking distance, providing a seamless connection to different parts of Milton Keynes.

The nearby green spaces are an unexpected bonus. Despite being in the heart of the city, the building is surrounded by well-maintained parks and recreational areas. It’s refreshing to have these serene spots just a short stroll away, providing a perfect balance between urban living and natural tranquility.

Security and safety were important factors for me, and I’m pleased to report that the neighborhood feels secure and well-monitored. The community here is friendly, adding a welcoming touch to the overall atmosphere.

In summary, the central location of this building in Milton Keynes is a major asset. It combines the convenience of city living with easy access to amenities, transportation, and green spaces. I’m excited about the endless possibilities this prime location brings, and I’m looking forward to exploring more of what this vibrant city has to offer.

Base carpark is paid, this is understandable but outside community carparks are expensive though. Yearly subscription can be requested by council but permitted area is a little bit far.

The Almere is well-designed, and more importantly well maintained and kept clean and tidy by the team on sight. The property management is a big positive for us as the team is always around to help and are very responsive. Mustafa was the first team member we met for our viewing and one of the main reason we chose to rent this property!
Facilities such as the co-working area, table tennis and the exercise classes make the overall experience of living at the Almere really positive.

The management is very prompt with any issues I may have at my apartment unlike any other buildings I’ve stayed at, they typically take weeks to get anything fixed but at the Almere no services like it. 100% would recommend to anyone who is looking for a modern apartment who is looking to meet great people.

The Almere is a great place to live. The apartment is modern and well laid out with lots of storage space and good quality appliances and furniture (I especially love the massive dishwasher). There’s a ventilation system in each apartment which can be “boosted” as necessary. I really like that the two-bed apartment also has two bathrooms. The Almere is pet-friendly which meant we could finally get a cat! Any maintenance issues get resolved super quickly and efficiently.

The facilities are also very nice. Downstairs, there’s seating + tv + coffee machine in the lobby, as well as the Gathering Place which is used for events + table tennis. Upstairs, there’s the large sky lounge with seating + tables + games, as well as a kitchen, a coworking space and a huge outdoor terrace with bbq. All the shared spaces are kept clean. There’s also regular events on like exercise classes and cooking classes. At this price point, all that’s missing is an on-site gym.

The staff (management, reception and maintenace team) are all really friendly. When I first enquired about renting, Mustafa replied promptly and was with us through the whole process from viewing to moving in. He and Natalie were both really helpful answering questions – Mustafa even sent us a video of the unit we would be renting. Since moving in, they’ve always replied really quickly to emails and they’re always happy to help or just have a chat when you pass through reception!

Bit of a weird one but the beds are really heavy so it’s not really practical to move them if you want to rearrange the furniture.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Any maintenance issues have been dealt with promptly and efficiently. The maintenance team are friendly and I never feel like they’re cutting corners or trying to do something they’re not equipped to do.
