Horrible experience living at The Watermint

The Watermint by Berkeley Living, NW9

Oct 2026

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

I would describe my experience of living in the local area as bad - in fact, terrible. That is my personal view as a resident.

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

I have raised a formal complaint about repeated parcel problems and unreliable reception coverage. I want a clear explanation of what will change and a parcel-handling process that actually works.

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

I wish I had known how unreliable the concierge service would feel when I needed help with deliveries.

It's a great area, great transport, the flats with parking spaces are amazing. Close to Kingston and New Malden, both with loads of restaurants, bars, shops etc.

Parcels can be challenging occasionally, but can get delivered to pick up spot opposite.

What is the best feature of your home:

How soundproof it is - the windows lock and the flat becomes silent.
