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

How close it is to both central London’s vivid life but also the calm nature of Highgate Woods. I sometimes forget that you can have that too in London.

The building is extremely close to local supermarkets and restaurants. All of those are high quality, or affordable, or both.

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

Apex Gardens is located right in the heart of the high street area, with a major Tesco Superstore just minutes away and the famous Seven Sisters Market which specializes in Latin food. There are a variety of other food shops like kebab, Costa Coffee, Malaysian food and even a well stocked Chinese super mart which sells fresh lobsters and crabs! Transportation is the best aspect because it literally takes 1 minute to get to Victoria Line Seven Sisters tube. Nearby, there is also Seven Sisters Overground and South Tottenham Overground.

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

The management team is very responsive, and it's really straightforward to report any issues through the Grainger App. We had an issue with our freezer not working and they coordinated with Electrolux to replace the entire fridge unit.

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

There are no other high rise buildings around the vicinity of 1km, so the view is really nice from 2 sides of our apartment, facing East (morning sun) and facing North. The management team organizes some really cool events like Summer Festival, Halloween Party, Christmas Night, Easter Egg Hunt etc for all the residents to come together and mingle, with free food, drinks and fun activities. If you can, secure the longer 3-year deal to lock in the rental pricing because you will get a better rate.

The on site team are very quick to respond to any repairs, a few times even came up to my flat and unclogged my sink for me!

there is no parking on site which did catch us off guard but there is a loading bay for moving in
