A great place to live!

A great development that is well maintained with lots of quality of life upgrades! A gym- barbecueue area- multiple roof terraces and a courtyard. Resident event aplenty too. Also dog friendly with super friendly on site team!

Layouts are well designed and future proof for each unit. Appliances are of good quality and choice to rent furnished or unfurnished.

Amazing views and great natural light !
Superfast Internet ready to go from day one as part of the building too!

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

The location is fantastic, an abundance of local retailers, from big named chains to independents- your also only a 20 minute walk from deansgate or white city!
The building has parking- but there is roadside parking a plenty too.
Easy to access town while also being a peaceful retreat away from town.

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

Just how easy the overall process was! The team have been so welcoming and proactive in the provision of information. Signing up and getting settled in has been a breeze !

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

The team have been phenomenal. Keisha is a legend!

Great place to live overall

The building design and management is really good. I enjoy having social areas, terrace, gym etc and the resident events are great. Management are really helpful and friendly and nurture a community feel in the building. Flats are spacious and have good storage space. Most flats also have a balcony or a juliette balcony.

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

The placement of this building is very central which means good access to shops, bars, amenities etc. The only downside is the fact that we are right next to a student building which generally isn’t too much of a problem as the windows are very well soundproofed but can be noisy if you have windows open at night.

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

I wish I had known about the student building nearby. I probably would have still moved into the building if I had known but would have instead selected a flat that didn’t face alexander street. Otherwise I can’t really fault this.

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

Any issues are dealt with in a timely and efficient manner. No complaints generally.

Good amenities for a reasonable price.

The building is designed well with communal areas and structure. They have concierge, small gym, private kitchen and cinema room as well as outdoor BBQ/ Grill. Fully equipped kitchen. I feel like they could have explored balcony and shower room options. The layouts are a bit smaller than other competitiors. The residents app took long to be of use to maintain all under one like payment of rent, filing repairs etc. The mobile app to unlock doors was something that would have been useful when informed during move in.

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

The apartment is in a good location with all grocery and meat shops within walkable distance. Reading Station is 12 min walk. Bus stops within 5 min. Indian grocery stores and eateries within reach. The apartment has bin collections every Thursday from the onsite trash disposal room. The parking on the property is limited. The windows seal pretty well and the noise levels are low. I haven’t seen any anti social behavior around the site during my 1 year of stay.

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

Reasonable wear and tear is accepted by the team, but the standards are expected at a professional level. They have a non refundable deposit option of one week but is not used towards the cleaning charges on vacation.

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

Any issues or repairs have been attempted promptly. Since this is a new property there aren’t many complaints. The intercom was not fixed for a long time due to required off site help. I couldn’t use it much because it wouldn’t work most of the times.

Great place to live

We love our flat, from the layout to the view. Some more storage would have been appreciated, for example under the bathroom sink. Also some materials are quite high maintenance (eg the matte kitchen cupboards). When we first moved in the management seemed confused with regards basics such as heating, internet providers etc and we had to do a lot of sorting out and research ourselves. However, now nearly two years in, everything is smooth and the staff are responsive if any issues. Love having the courtyard as well!

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

Very close to transport links, bars, restaurants and shops. Slightly far from open places. Road can get noisy (very close to police station, plus traffic 24/7) and dirty – windows, balcony etc get soiled. Some tenants are not the most mindful, littering in bin room and being noisy at night, leaving front door open etc

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

Noise levels from the road and other people’s balconies

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

Initially confused but helpful. Now more knowledgeable and fast.
