Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
There is a good range of shops, restaurants, and cafés nearby, which makes it very convenient. There are also several open spaces and parks within walking distance, which is great for relaxing outdoors. Transport links are reliable, with easy access to buses and the Underground, although rush hour can sometimes get quite busy. Even though the apartment is near the main road there is barely any noise.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Honestly we haven’t had many issues yet, but any small questions that we have are being addressed by the management which is lovely.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I didn’t realise how supportive the Gessner team would be. Kitti especially made our move so much easier by helping us set up electricity and water straight away, which I thought was going to be a nightmare.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
We have lived in Vantage Point for over 5 years now and honestly its the best! We even tried to move out at one point and came straight back! The area does have some work to be done with the "locals" but apart from that, the transport is superb (literally above northern line) there are so many supermarkets within a 20 meter radius and every Saturday there's a delightful market just outside in navigator square. The only negative is the constant ambulance and police sirens when the windows are open, but if you can oversee that, its perfect!
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Always promptly and with the utmost care. Everything was dealt within 24 hours.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Always enquire directly with building letting agency rather than outside as there's always hidden gem apartments available. We got ours right when we needed it the most simply by picking up the phone.
Manager response
Thank you so much for your lovely review, Kim. It’s wonderful to hear that after so many years Vantage Point still feels like home for you and your family, and that our team has been able to support you along the way. We’re delighted you’re enjoying the spaces, amenities, and community, and we’ll be sure to share your kind words with the whole team.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Local shops, grocers, and transit links make this development convenient and well connected. However, the area tends to be noisy at night between the hospital close by, busy roads, and taverns and clubs.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Building management always deals with issues quite promptly and is always friendly. The only recurring issue which seems to be an ongoing problem is the trash chute not working.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I had known more about the specific area as it’s quite loud and busy more often than not & has a decent amount of homeless activity.
Manager response
Thank you for your thoughtful review, Will. We’re so pleased you’re enjoying the quality of the building and the friendly, responsive support from our team. We also appreciate your feedback on the terrace grills and facilities, which we’ll keep in mind as we look at ways to make the resident experience even better.
