Its a very nice property with lounge, gym and play area. The gym can have more machines but its still better than nothing. The interiors are very nice and view from the property is amazing. But the chute is not often working. The people and habitants are ve try nice.

There are many benefits to living at Vantage point and within the surrounding area but I’m sure a lot of other reviews will go in to those things in detail. Instead I’d like to point out three big quality of life benefits one gets from living here that you would probably struggle to find elsewhere.

Firstly, the greatest strength VP has going for it is that the whole building is centrally managed. No dealing with individual landlords and no dealing with letting agents. It’s hard to express how much of a pro this actually is in London as both of the former can be nightmares to deal with. At VP the teams who run both the letting process and the management side of things once you move in are great. I think if your expectations as a tenant are even slightly realistic they will comfortably surpass them in all ways. Especially if you compare against renting elsewhere in London.

Secondly, there’s peace of mind in knowing that should anything break down or malfunction in the flat you have direct access to an incredible handyman who’s usually available within just a few days to get things fixed. I’ve had very issues in my 1.5 years living here but when I have they’ve been resolved quickly and painlessly.

Third and finally, I want to say just how incredible it is having access to the amenities 24 hours a day! This isn’t super common as amenities in buildings like this will often close around 10pm. Being able to use the gym/games room/dining room/living room/co-working space/or balcony areas at any time, even the middle of the night, really makes your flat feel bigger than it is. You’re never restricted to being solely in that space. Having constant access makes the shared spaces feel like a continuation of your private space and that’s a truly lovely feeling.

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

I already knew the area well so there wasn’t much I didn’t know before moving in!

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

I had very few things go wrong but anything that did was fixed incredibly quickly!
