A guide to living in Leeds

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

There are plenty of restaurants and bars in a close walking distance so there is always a nice atmosphere on a weekend in those areas. The courtyard in Tower Works is also such a nice open space with the canal on our doorstep and the train station a 5 minute walk away. Although the accommodation is a stones throw from the centre of Leeds, it has a nice calm feeling to it.

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

They have always been very quick to try and rectify any issues I have experienced and in the event it is not a quick fix, have kept me updated on its progression.

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

The freedom to do what you want! Not many apartment complexes allow you to paint walls or hang TVs or picture frames on the walls etc but MW @ Tower Works do and it’s such a nice added touch to make the space feel more personal to yourself and homelike.

The range of local shops, restaurants, and bars around Mustard Wharf at Tower Works is excellent, with plenty of convenient options for everyday shopping and eating out. There are some lovely open spaces nearby for walking and relaxing, which makes the area feel pleasant and well-served. Transport links are good, with buses and trains easily accessible. Living on my street is generally peaceful, parking is usually available, bin collections are reliable, and I’ve not experienced any anti-social behavior. Traffic noise is present at times but isn’t overwhelming. Overall, it’s a very convenient and enjoyable place to live.
