Loads of local independent coffee shops and restaurants within 5 minutes of walking from Dockside. Where the apartments are located it’s got a lot of open space around, you’re literally on the water so sea views for miles! It’s a really quiet area and the buildings well sound proofed. No issues with bins being collected so no smelly stores.

Loving fountainbridge! Tesco and Co-Op within touching distance, joined the gym at FountainPark and located right off the bus stop which takes me directly to my work. The coffee shops on Grove Street are lovely and Loudon’s restaurant looks great. Parking can be tricky to find, we usually park at the other side of the canal. The only noise issues so far have been from the development finishing up the path outside however it is not too loud.

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

We have not had many issues as of yet. Our questions have been replied to quickly.

As we are high up and the window frames are made of metal, when it rains there is quite a loud dripping noise which could affect quiet levels. It is not too distracting for us but if you need complete silence to sleep it may be difficult when it’s rainy outside. Also make sure to close the curtains when it’s dark as the offices across can see right in.
