Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Close to the waitrose, botanical gardens, Nuffield centre, Ecclesal road. It feels like in the city centre but just outside so not that busy.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
They have always solved my issues. Recently they changed my mattress which is the highlight of this season
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Allowing pets is not common in every building. I’m very used to having pets around now, but when I first arrived, I assumed it was like that everywhere.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
This is a great area, close to the tram line, and at a walking distance from Kehlam and the city center. Next to Tesco and other big supermarkets like Aldi and Home and Bargains. Not so good on green spaces, but there are Ponderosa and Philadelphia gardens nearby. It has always felt safe, although the neighborhood can be a bit chaotic in fireworks times
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
generally, they always sent someone promptly when I need it. There are issues with the boilers that sometimes affect hot water supply. The main issue for me is not having a direct point of contact for the development. I would like to have someone I can refer to who know the place
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
how bills are organised - managed by Ginger Energy, and on a share of the development rather than based on consumption

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Lovely area with really nice amenities and views in the area. The building is beautiful with a victorian facade. Living on the side by Tesco however means the noise can be quite loud from local pedestrians and shoppers.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Normally quite quick for any structural damage and issues.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The windows are quite thin and make rooms quite cold

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
It’s a great place to live in terms of access to Kelham which is full of great shops, cafes and bars. Theres on site parking which is a huge plus although it does cost £20 a month. The main downside is that it is quite noisy, especially at night.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The management haven’t responded well to our mail box being broken. It has been broken since we moved in. They have however responded very well to other issues that arise such as leaks, showers breaking and paint issues. All in all they’re very quick to get back to us
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I really wish I’d known the mail box was broken as this has caused some issues. They had other flats for rent at the time that we could have considered instead
