A guide to living in Hammersmith

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

The street is very safe and lots of nice shops and restaurants nearby especially being near to Hammersmith, chiswick and shepherds bush. There is also a nice park nearby which is nice to walk around. The safety of the area is good too. I just feel there are often dog poops but these tend to be managed well and cleaned up shortly.

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

Very well. We haven't lived here much though but we felt concerns were addressed well.

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

The water pressure. It seems like something affecting the whole hamlet court building. We believe it could have been improved. Hopefully, something is done to it.

Hammersmith is a great area to settle down thanks to its proximity to shops, cafes, pubs. Having the Thames river right next to the building is just amazing especially in Summer. You can have a nice walk in the neighborhood, stop for a nice pint. You live in London without the hassle of the city centre.

I would have liked to know the reason why the previous tenant left and the sun exposure

Building management by Centrick is the worst I've even seen. They do not act on the issues we raise.

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

Wish I knew how bad Centrick, the management company is! I activelly loocked for a flat in this block because I love the location and was in search of a modern flat. Unfortunately, once I moved I realised the buiding management is the worst.
