Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Great open spaces and walking trails for our little Dog. The area would benefit from more local facilities such as a gym, a Swimming pool, restaurants, and convenience stores. The access road is somewhat disappointing. But I believe this is just while the building is ongoing. It has caused many delivery attempts to be aborted and angry uber drivers
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Mustafa Dar has been quick and responsive to any issues that we have come across.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
It would be nice to know when the Shetland drive road will be open from all directions.

Modern, Convenient Living at The Almere: A Comfortable City Experience with Excellent Staff.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Overall, living at the Almere has been a smooth experience. There are plenty of high-quality shops and restaurants nearby to suit any mood. Whether you're after a quick bite or a fancy meal, there's no shortage of options. The green spaces are lovely, with places like Willen Lake providing a great spot to unwind. Bin collections are generally reliable, and anti-social behaviour doesn’t seem to be an issue. Most streets feel quiet and safe, though some roads can get a bit noisy. The train station is convenient for London trips, making commuting easy. All in all, it’s a comfortable place to live.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The building management has been responsive and efficient, quickly addressing any concerns raised. Maintenance requests are handled promptly, and communication is clear, making it easy to resolve issues without hassle. Overall, they provide a smooth and well-managed living experience.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
We only did the viewing online since we were moving from abroad, but the process was smooth and hassle-free. The online viewing service provided was clear and well-organized, giving us a good feel for the apartment despite not seeing it in person. We had no issues throughout the experience, and the platform made it easy to explore the property remotely.

Life at the Almere

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The location of the Almere is second to none! Sainsbury's is across the street and we're surrounded by restaurants and bars of all cuisines and budget. The road links are great to get in an out of the City via car, plus one of the best Malls in the country is in walking distance. Its quite at night with no road or City noise and it feels safe to walk around at night too. The garage underneath provides excellent parking plus there's electric chargers for vehicles too.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The Building Management team have been amazing and have gone way beyond the norm to help us settle in and answer any questions we have. They are so genuine and friendly and it resonates in the environment and atmosphere within the Almere building.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The unit doesn't come with a microwave (but maybe that's normal in the UK?)
