The management team has been really helpful and responsive whenever I've needed anything.

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

Great area with proximity to Battersea park and power station. Shops and restaurants are opening in the building and close by developments which is convenient. Flats are insulated from noise which is a lovely and rare feature in London.

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

All our requests are answered over email or the resident app in a timely manner

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

The pool gets extremely crowded in the summer as many residents don’t follow the rules about bringing guests.

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

The Nine Elms Lane is under construction, which creates too much traffic and narrower walkways. Other than that it is okay.

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

they respond in one business day. I had my hob replaced in 45mins. Kudos to Orlando from maintenance!

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

The tulu app. I wish that I knew about this app beforehand. I hired a cleaning person before I moved in. It was not necessary.

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

Battersea is a fantastic area to live in, offering a great balance between a peaceful residential atmosphere and a vibrant city lifestyle. There are plenty of lovely cafés, restaurants, supermarkets and shops nearby, making everyday life extremely convenient. The area is well connected by public transport, with easy access to central London. I particularly enjoy the neighbourhood’s modern feel, beautiful surroundings and welcoming atmosphere. Overall, it is a lovely and convenient place to live, especially for students and young professionals.

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

The building management team is approachable and professional. Communication is generally clear, and the staff are friendly and willing to assist residents whenever needed. I appreciate their efforts to maintain a comfortable living environment and address residents’ concerns.

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

I wish I had known just how convenient and enjoyable living in Battersea would be. The location offers a great combination of modern city living and a peaceful residential atmosphere. My advice to future residents would be to explore the local cafés, restaurants and transport connections, as they really add to the overall living experience.
