Excellent, well thought out facilities like secure mail box access, roof top communal areas, access to an electric grill etc makes this a comfortable home.

Any maintenance work you request is carried out impressively fast by the on site team, and when it requires more time, I was always kept informed.

Overall, an excellent place to live. With the opening of the Elizabeth line, rents in the area has gone up more than it used to be, but even then, I really think that it’s a great value for London.

The only negative is being locked to one gas (electric can be changed) supplier… They use a communal heating system, and I don’t think it is the best value for money…. with the energy prices going up and set to increase even further, there is no option to switch to a supplier with lower rates.

On the flip side, the insulation is excellent throughout the apartment.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

Excellent transport links with the Elizabeth line less than 5 minutes walk from the building.

The high street is also less than 5 minutes walk away. With access the most stores you need. There is an ASDA less than 10 minutes walk away….

In terms of Food, you have access to really good chinese / Indian restaurants and the usual fast food chains like KFC / MCDonalds, all within walking distance.

Parking is available in the building, but it costs £100 a month which is normal for the area. In terms of traffic noise, I guess you will probably only be hearing the trains as the flats are right next to the track… But given the excellent sound isolation in the apartment, I barely notice them with the windows closed.

I generally feel safe going out at night in the area, but it can get a bit dodgy past mid night

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

I’d try to sign up for a long term contract that limits rent adjustments for the whole term, with the current rate of inflation, I don’t think it would be long before the rents hit 2k a month in no time.

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

Always, and very quickly. They have an excellent maintenance request system via the tenant portal

Excellent transport links and local amenities. Area itself is not the best, but within the complex all is good!

I like the location for ease of getting to London and the motorway network but wouldnﾒt go out in Hayes shopping

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

The social gatherings are great, a good way to meet people. Will be great to have the new facilities on the roof terrace but just be aware that you canﾒt take your pooch on there currently. This may be reviewed though
