A guide to living in Borough of Haringey

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

The location is amazing. So many fantastic shops, restaurants and bars in close proximity. Local people were very helpful with directions and advise. We ventured out to the superb stadium just down the road, home to Tottenham Hotspur’s.. During our stay we ventured out to a few of the local bars Mother Kelly’s and The Beehive to name a few. Great service and food. On the Sunday we travelled by train in to Oxford St for a bit of shopping and lunch 15 minutes by train each way and less than one minute a walk we was back in the apartments. Connections to everywhere and so convenient.

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

Staff were extremely efficient in responding and resolutions. Communication was great.

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

Commuting is very easy and with the connections to major station on a few minutes away I don’t see myself needing a car. The station with underground and overground trains is less than a minute’s walk away . The community is relatively new and developing, it feels safe and secure when you are walking around near the apartments,

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

Beautiful building with amazing amenities, well connected with Victoria Line close by. Downside is not many restaurants or bars around or near, yet that is exactly what I wanted (to avoid crowds). Would be great to have a grocery store near, but Lidl is 12 min walk away.

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

Very fast and diligent response, all issues raised were addressed and resolved

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

No restaurants or cafe near by, other than Coco. Yet the area is developing, this may change soon

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

Transport links are excellent and I always felt very safe coming hoke late on the tube line. The park next to the Sessile is an excellent open space , very friendly with a community feel. My apartment looked inwards over the lovely garden on floor one so I was not really aware of traffic noise or any other noise. And lovely to hear life going on around the Sessile-certainly not anti-social behaviour. Loved Little Coco at the Gessner and Mother Kelly's. Hopefully a few eating places will open soon.

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

Always. Quick response, problem sorted. Totally trustworthy team if entry is needed without myself being present.

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

The friendliness and general kindness of residents. WhatsApp groups.

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

The area is very nice, we have had delays with the council in collecting bins but the building management were very helpful in resolving this. The streets are very active so its good to be mindful walking at night like most other urban areas. Its not too far from Hotspurs stadium so the nighbourhood can feel a bit overrun on matchdays, but its usually an okay vibe despite the crowd.

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

Yes all of them! They are very responsive snd friendly.

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

Just wish that it was priced more to reflect how many young tenants there are, and that mailroom was more secure.

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

Tottenham Hale is a fantastic residential space, with the nearby wetlands providing a number of excellent jog and/or hiking spots. The Sessile is situated very close to the tube station however there is very little noise from outside thanks to the large communal area of the building.

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

I've not raised any problems since moving in last month.

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

I would strongly recommend visiting the area and local establishments to see what Tottenham Hale is about before moving. It's an excellent town with pockets of culture to get lost in - privately owned businesses are still prevalent and support each other. It hasn't been hit by gentrification like other areas I've visited and lived.
