A guide to living in Nine Elms

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

Bloom East has exceeded our very high expectations!! We knew it would be great to have easy access to the Battersea Power Station (and its tube station) but we didn’t fully appreciate how great it would be. The M&S supermarket is a particularly nice resource, in addition to the waitrose that’s so close to Bloom 9 Elms

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

Yes, the maintenance team, including Malachy, has always been extremely prompt and courteous

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

The availability of tube and bus transport is excellent but takes some time to figure out

There are plenty of restaurants, supermarkets and cafés nearby, as well as excellent public transport connections, making it very convenient for everyday life. The facilities are also exceptional. Everything is beautifully maintained and there are fantastic spaces and amenities that really add to the overall experience. A great combination of location, convenience and excellent facilities. We’ve been very impressed!

Nine Elms is a very convenient area to live in. There are plenty of supermarkets, cafés and restaurants nearby, and public transport is easy to access.

I would recommend checking the exact layout, orientation and specific features of your apartment before moving in, as these can vary between units. If there is anything you are unsure about, it is worth asking the Bloom team in advance. In my experience, they have been very helpful in answering questions and providing additional information.
