Great neighbourhood Beautiful properties Quiet and safe Safe to walk around No traffic disturbances Regular waste segregation

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Really happy living in the development its clean and well managed , Shops are close by. neighbors are friendly. lots of parking for visitors.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes very quick and professional. Always by email or phone.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
My Building had the internet server positioned in the downstairs cupboard which is under the first floor made of concrete . For any future builds I would suggest placing the modem in a more central location to help with the overall signal strength throughout the rest of the property.

Great Location, Poor Management

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The location couldn’t be better, right next to the railway station, and with a convenience store downstairs. Plenty to do in the local area and easy to get to.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
As previously mentioned, building management has previously either ignored issues entirely, or taken weeks to respond. A basic maintenance fault has taken nearly 10 weeks to fix.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish we had known that the poor building management would have existed - it probably would have swayed us to just rent from a private landlord, rather than a proper managed company.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Nice co-op. Decent upmarket cafe, but not much else in the way of restaurants/bars. Buses to station are OK. Very peaceful neighbourhood, no anti-social behaviour or excessive noise/disturtbances at all.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Any maintentance issues were dealt with very promptly and effectively.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
There's a very nice walk from the development through the Echelon Walk via several nice playgrounds for the kids, ending up at a good little Sainsbury's.
