Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The location is great! It is in a hotspot for restaurants, bars and shops. Many would think being in such an area would make it loud. It is the opposite, the building is very quiet, making it a much more enjoyable stay.

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

Any issues in my flat have always been resolved quickly and to a good standard.

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

Nothing comes to mind, having a tour of the building before committing my stay here ensured myself I was going to be living in a good environment.

Feels like home .

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

I’ve really enjoyed living in this area , there’s a good mix of shops, cafés and restaurants close by, and everything you need day to day is within walking distance. The local parks and green spaces are lovely for a quick walk or some quiet time. Transport links are reliable, and it’s easy to get around. The neighborhood feels safe and welcoming, and the community has a really nice, friendly vibe.

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

Any issues I’ve reported have been handled quickly and efficiently. The management team usually responds within a day, and repairs or follow-ups are sorted without unnecessary delays. They also keep residents updated through the app, which makes it really easy to track and get quick responses. Overall, the service feels well organised and reliable.

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

I wish I’d known how easy everything is to manage through the resident app , it makes communication and maintenance requests so simple. Also, parking can get a bit tight at busy times, so it’s worth checking that before moving in. Overall, though, it’s a great place to live with a friendly community.

Manager response

Hi Elhadj, and thank you for such a thoughtful review. We’re so pleased to hear that living at The Point has felt like home and that you’ve had such a positive experience with the building, community, and management team. It’s great to know the resident app has made communication easy and that any issues have been dealt with promptly, as that’s exactly what we aim for. Thanks again for your feedback and kind words.
