Living at Millet Place near Pontoon Dock Station offers a mix of convenience and tranquility. The local shops include a Sainsbury's and Nisa Local, both of which cater well to daily grocery needs with a decent variety of options. While there aren't a vast number of restaurants or bars nearby, there are a few nice spots for casual dining. The area is complemented by lovely parks, providing great spaces for walking and relaxation.

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

Excellent location, only a 10 minute walk to the city! Parking availability is rare, so if you can, get a private space in the flat. There is a retail shopping park literally 10 mins walk or a short 4-6 mins drive!

Usually very quick to respond. I had an issue with my windows, and it was sorted within 2-3 weeks.

I wish I’d known how important it is to have a management team that cares about your tenancy experience, always keep this in mind when you’re viewing flats. It’ll make or break your living experience.

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

Great restaurants around the area and amazing coffee shop with the best coffee. The tube station is only 2 minutes walking distance from the building. The bad side of the area is the noise level... there's always loud noise in the street (drilling noise, construction noise, people shouting, etc.), so bear this in mind if you like living in a peaceful environment. Even if you keep your windows closed, you will hear the noise!

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

Building management is often responsive, but there are a few issues in the building that are still unresolved.

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

Loud street noise and lots of pigeons in the area (which always go to our balconies too, creating a mess!!)
