Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Whilst the building does not have any shops/restaurants/bars in the immediate vicinity, there is a local convenience store a 5-minute walk away and the building is situated a 15-minute walk to the city centre with the Leeds city bus station nearby. What’s originally grooming to the building? Was the fact that it has secure underground parking which is quite rare in the city centre the facilities of the building are great. It has its own gym and lounge/ social area and bookable meeting rooms. The building is situated near the ambulance station so you can regularly hear ambulance sirens which can be loud, particularly if you’ve got the window open However, when the windows are shut, they really block the noise out.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes, upon moving in I noticed some very minor snagging issues. I noted them on the portal and they were fixed appropriately and efficiently.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Given that the building is new, applying for things like council tax and electricity/water accounts is a little tricky given they use different postcodes. for example I use one postcode for council tax and another for utility bills, so it’s just something to be mindful of. Also the size of the apartments are much larger than other ones available in the area. They have large windows both in the bedrooms and in the kitchen so plenty of natural lights in the flat, along with a lovely view looking over the city.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Super central which is good but living by the college isn’t great as often noise and skateboarders nearly running you over 😅 but in general good and very close to the bus station too!
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Very responsive to issues about noise complaints, or problems with neighbours, also 24hr concierge means he’ll can be offered immediately
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I had taken more advantage of the amenities sooner, as they are great and really put this development a level above just a regular apartment block :-)

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Living here has been a great experience — comfortable, convenient, and full of character. Everything you need is right nearby: great restaurants, bars, and our favourite bakery (Bake!). We’ve loved jogging along the canal, spotting river barges and local wildlife — such a nice way to unwind. The building itself is really well set up. There’s a gym with modern equipment, co-working spaces, and even a photocopying service at reception, which has come in handy. We moved back to the UK after several years in Spain and needed a temporary base. These apartments were perfect — quiet, well-equipped, and ready to go. We moved in with just suitcases and bedding and felt at home straight away.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
A real highlight has been the team here. Ellen and the staff are incredibly responsive and helpful — any issues (like a faulty window catch) were sorted out quickly and efficiently.
