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

One thing I wish I had known before moving in is just how strong the sense of community is within the development. It’s easy to miss on a viewing, but neighbours are friendly, considerate, and there’s a real feeling of shared pride in the building. I’d also share with new neighbours how useful it is to explore the local area early on — there are so many great amenities, walks, and independent places nearby that really enhance day-to-day living. Taking a little time to get familiar with the building systems and shared spaces early also helps you settle in quickly and make the most of everything the development offers.

Leith is a great location to live and since moving away three years ago I’ve been working out ways to come back, and I’m very grateful about moving to Dockside as it’s still quiet, yet very close to public transport, buses and city centre availability for taxis and driving. There’s a host of hidden gems nearby and can only recommend the location!

The Tulu vending machine is more used than expected, you can’t rent hoovers, hair dryers and even games, which is very handy or short term uses.
