Greater London

Greater London is the name of the ceremonial county that covers the London region, excluding the City of London. With a population of over 8.9 million (2018), this 607 square mile area is split into 33 districts that stretch from Hillingdon in the west to Havering in the east, south as far as Croydon and Bromley, and up to Enfield in the north. London real estate is some of the most coveted in the world, thanks to consistent demand, top universities, clement weather, a dependable legal system and the city’s plentiful green spaces – among many other factors.

Close to East Croydon station – although none of the local supermarkets are full size stores.
Plenty of food/take-out/restaurants

Please review your development:

DESIGN – spacious, open plan foyer, secure entry system
FACILITIES – onsite laundry, good broadband/WIFI – easy setup
5* service from the onsite management team.
Special mention to the onsite TIN (Tida, Indrea, Nermin) Dream Team .
Excellent customer service, very responsive, always smiling and friendly.

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

On first viewing the rooms will like any other standard room.
When you move-in, you quickly realise how deceptively spacious the room is i.e. hidden storage space and plenty of drawers etc.

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

All reported issues have been attended to and resolved on the same day.

Blackhorse Mills is fantastic for anyone who commutes or works from home as you have excellent transport links, lots of cafes, bakeries, breweries, workspaces and the beautiful wetlands to top it all off!

Please review your development:

There’s a lot to love about living here, especially the communal spaces and how they nurture a real sense of community. We have lived here for 3+ years and have met some wonderful people in this time.

I also love the gym and the pool, they are well maintained and all the staff here are helpful and personable.

As a dog owner, I find the space for dogs somewhat disappointing and wish that we could have a larger more natural space for our dogs to be off lead. Our current ‘dog park’ isn’t fit for purpose but still grateful to have some lovely dog walking options close by.

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

That it was fully furnished and that there is limited worktop space in the kitchen if you happen to live in one of the townhouses.

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

Any issues we’ve had have been swiftly and professionally dealt with.

It is a nice area with shops and local market around and supermarkets like waitress and aldi in walking distance range also south Harrow Station is very close which makes this development nice place

Please review your development:

Flat is big and nice facilities like underfloor heating and airwent system. Property is managed by origin which is a shame because they are really struggling to manage it and making it bad or deterioration of Property. But good things are like automatic doors. Only drawback is cctv which is not accessible remotely

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

No window in the kitchen which is not good but it has extractor fan

What is the best feature of your home:

U shaped kitchen and underfloor heating along with big carpet area
