The local area has developed since moving here 5 years ago. The brewery’s are a short walk from equipment works, as well as independent cafes, restaurants and shops. Parking is fairly limited, but there is feee parking down some residential streets between certain times and a payable car park within a short walk. Parking at the property has a very long waiting list and a charge of £250 per month. Transport links are brilliant with the Victoria line getting you into central London in less than 20 minutes.

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

They do try their best to respond/fulfil our issues, however recently because of lack of staff this has taken much longer to sort. Most of the time, anything raised to management is resolved.

The excessive increase in rent each year (we are aware it has become a popular area but the increases seem to be extreme to other flats surrounding ours). Lots of spiders and bugs in the summer on the balcony because of the wetlands.
