A guide to living in Yorkshire and the Humber

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

Great location with easy access to all the amenities of sheffield centre. Right next to a tram stop and 15-20 minutes walk from main bus stops and train station. A very convenience Tesco Express is basically across the way for quick groceries with a larger store about 10 minutes walk away. No anti-social behaviour encountered while here and no noise complaints. Dont drive but general observations and hearsay is that parking can be limited.

Building management have always been helpful and have resolved any issues I've had.

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

As previously mentioned, heating and corridor soundproofing although both where very minor for me. Deliveries going to wrong address which happened twice over 3 years, definitely always add additional delivery instructions for tilt works reception if possible. Everything else was fairly described and what I was expecting.

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

The neighbourhood is safe and just a short walk from the city centre, the only downside is there is a bit of an uphill walk into the centre and other bits around as well. Kelham island is just down the road and there is R1se yoga studio nearby and other gyms like pure gym just down the road as well. There is on street parking, and you can get a space. But sometimes it is difficult and many other people are also trying to use the free on street parking. And the traffic wardens seem to patrol a few times a day around this area so getting a ticket is not uncommon. There are also free events around Easter, Halloween, Xmas where you can meet the neighbours.

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

Very good all in all, I have always had my issues fixed. Sometimes it needs a bit of a reminder but I have had no major issues.

The surrounding area can be a bit of a hilly walk.

The Tilt Works is well placed within Sheffield, with most popular areas in walkable distance. To get further afield, the tram stops right outside the building to you can quickly reach areas in the city that aren't as close or head straight to the train station.

The customer service team at the Tilt Works are excellent and go above and beyond to help residents. They also understand the needs and feelings of the residents and can offer them help or advice when needed. In the past, we've been able to approach the building management about maintenance issues and they have worked quickly to resolve the issues. In other cases, the customer service team have been incredibly helpful and understand with issues between residents and respectful living.

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

Prepare to bring/buy your own storage! Also, be aware that this is a student area and to expect that whilst the residents of the Tilt Works are mostly respectful and quiet, the surrounding areas can have some noisy late-night revellers.

Overall it's good and specially now we have a convenience store in the building. Parking on the street sometimes become and issue. I think terrace garden and garden outside of building needs some immediate maintenance .
