The area is very convenient, with excellent transport links via the Victoria Line and just 30 minutes from Stansted Airport, making travel easy. While not everything is within walking distance, there is a good range of shops and amenities nearby. Sadly, most shops aren’t dog-friendly, but cafes, pubs, and other social spots generally are, which is great. There’s also a big dog community in the area, which is fantastic. The area can get busy during events at the Drumshed or games at the stadium nesrby, but overall, the location is very convenient for us and suits our lifestyle well.

An insight we’d share is that the landlord opted to use Evinox for heating and hot water. Unfortunately, this has been the most problematic aspect for us. Their system has had downtime, which has resulted in additional costs for residents. Their rates are also quite high, and currently, there is no option to choose an alternative provider, which can be frustrating.

Good points: Large retail park and grocery stores nearby Right next to Tottenham tube station and railway Bad aspects: Sorry but it’s Tottenham and some of the clientele around there are dodgy! But the actual development is so safe and there’s heavy security so you feel segregated from them. As far as rentals go this is absolute ace.

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

Acknowledged and fixed in a timely manner. No major problems.

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

None. The only new experience for us was the Evinox hot water where you have to top up the credit and the second the meter runs out of credit the hot water cuts off. Was so confusing for the first few days then figured it out.
