A Guide to Living in Camden

Please review your development:

The building is managed impeccably. There is an efficient concierge service. The car park is easy to access as is the garbage system. I tend to enter mainly through the car park entrance as that is more convenient so I don’t get the full benefits of the beautifully designed front entrance. The common parts are always kept clean.

Plimsoll is well designed and a joy to live in. We also benefit from Argent being a very responsible and far-sighted developer, who is crucially thinking of the wider picture for the developments role in the community.
Facilities are good , and life is made to be very easy for residents here with 24hr concierge , good security in the building and the surrounding development and plenty of parking availability for guests and residents.

Surprised how amazingly easy it is to get everywhere – can walk to the city or west end in 20-30mins , tube there in 5mins – pretty much everywhere in London is accessible in 30 mins or less- and of course when we can, go to Paris ( or even Nottingham to watch my football team ) in a couple of hours .

If there is one thing you would change about your flat or property what would it be:

There is still considerable building work going on in the redevelopment zone ( including the new theatre that we are excited about) , but this was always known about when we purchased so we have no complaints.

You can tell that design and amenities were front of mind for the builders of Plimsoll Building – it feels more like a high-end hotel than an apartment block, which isn’t a bad thing! To name a few of the facilities, there’s a gym with most equipment you could need, a bike storage room, and an observatory with a terrace. The 24/7 concierge support is also fantastic in terms of package delivery and overall safety, and the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

The walls are quite thick – we rarely hear noise from our neighbours through the walls.

If there is one thing you would change about your flat or property what would it be:

The landlord has been slow to fix maintenance issues, but that’s not the fault of Plimsoll.

I absolutely love the Plimsoll Building – it’s light, beautifully designed, and modern, with facilities like a gym, a winter garden with 12th floor balcony, a reading room with piano, a conference room, and more.

Apartments are well spaced and specced, and the fittings are all top class: down-lighting that’s stunning (and nourishes plants), built in dishwashers, and heated mirrors in the bathroom so they don’t steam up. The designers thought of every little detail.

The building is wonderfully maintained and is stocked with friendly concierge staff. I love it here.

The council tax is on the higher end of the scale (£150-200/month for a 1 bedroom), so one definitely pays for the nice area we’re situated in.

If there is one thing you would change about your flat or property what would it be:

We’ve really struggled to get our landlord (actually the managing agency) to fix our dishwasher. It’s been 6 months of emails, and nothings actually been done.
