If you want to live in a residential complex that is stylish, comfortable, and very affordable, I recommend it 100% for you.

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

It’s Wembley Stadium, and obviously, there are a bunch of shops here and there is no doubt about that. Still, with the London Designer Outlet it goes beyond expectations in terms of accessibility to everything. The only downside of the neighbourhood is something that depends on your personality because on game days the area is closed off and also full of people, if you like to have a crowded and lively area it would be better for you but if not about 20 days a year it discomfort you.

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

At this moment, the building management issues are solved and they are great right now.

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

Actually, I have researched the area and the building. I have seen a lot of buildings around here and in other neighborhoods, and I have no regrets or anything I wished to do before moving here. I love here.

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

Good Aspects: It's in a great location, very close to public transport and feels very safe as a woman who commutes to work at all hours. There is always security around and it is well lit. If you have a dog, lots of the nearby stores/bars/cafes are dog friendly and the building has private dog parks which are so handy when you live in an apartment block. Bad Aspects: There can be a lot of noise from the Nursery below. Have to walk the long way round if there is an event on as no two-way system.

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

They always respond promptly. You can contact them via the app, via email or go down in person to speak to the friendly team on the desk. Last issue we had that required maintenance, they turned up 10 minutes later. A problem we had with another resident was investigated accordingly, and they spoke with me to let me know what action had been taken and the outcome. They keep us up to date with any issues we raise, even if it does seem like there has been no solution.

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

I wish I'd known the nursery below us was open air - it's the only caveat to our current flat is hearing Baby Shark on repeat. I also wish I'd known they didn't allow two-way system on event days. All you would need is a small section cordoned off for people heading against the crowd when an event lets out, instead of making residents walk the long way round which is darker and feels unsafe. Also not suitable if you have mobility issues/wheelchair or pram.

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

It’s a great location close to both the Northern and Victoria line and loads of bus routes at Vauxhall station. The building is also a short walk away from Waitrose and Sainsbury’s, and then you have M&S at the power station. There are more cafes and restaurants opening up in the area which is nice. The only major issues are the road works and the school being built close by that create a lot of noise and traffic issues at the moment - luckily neither can be heard from the flat!

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

We are currently having an issue with really loud neighbours above and Bob has been really proactive and helpful with this.

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

We really worried the noise from the train tracks behind us would be an issue but actually it’s barely noticeable and not a problem at all.
