A rare gem in Leeds

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

With the location being as central as it can be, the local area provides unlimited choice of cafes, bars, restaurants and shops. The train station is only a five minute walk away which makes transport links incredibly convenient. The development backs onto the river/canal which is great for nice waterside walks.

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

The building management team, as well as, the maintenance team are all incredibly friendly and helpful. Any issues (no matter how small) have been seriously taken and swiftly resolved. From the very first viewing to once I'd settled in, Steve Houghton was extremely responsive and on hand to help with any queries or issues (including providing updates which is always much appreciated).

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

Nothing - just how nice of a place it is to live! After an underwhelming search for a flat in Leeds City Centre, I just wish the development had been available sooner!

Great place to live

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

Really good convenient. Only issue is it’s close to the train station so you could hear the trains when you have the windows open.

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

Really well, logged an issue with my washing machine on the app but it got sorted really quickly and on the same day

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

Made aware of all hidden fees right from the beginning, I do wish that the process of moving in could be better and faster. I booked the apt in April but only got the paperwork sorted the day before moving which I thought was really late and stressful.
