It's amazing living so close to Preston Park, I go there pretty much every day and have met a lot of people from the local area there. We are out of the hustle and bustle of central Brighton, so it's more peaceful. But it's still easy to get everywhere on foot or by bus. There are corner shops and supermarkets close by too

The management team is generally very good – they are prompt, responsive, and helpful when dealing with any issues. However, I do wish I had known that the gym might not be completed, as it was initially advertised and played a big role in my decision to move here.

Great location, tucked away from town enough to be peaceful but a nice stroll into town/the lanes. Right opposite lovely Preston park. Close to Brighton; Preston park and London Road train stations. Ten min walk to a good size Sainsbury’s.

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

Promptly and friendly, haven’t had any big issues, maintenance issues were sorted quickly.

It’s a shame we are a year in and a gym is still a question mark; would be great to have one. Though this never promised.

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

The location is almost perfect. There are a couple of bus stops nearby that can take you in both directions. You are just opposite the Preston Park which is amazing. Not too far away to walk from the train station. Plenty of small shops, cafes pubs and restaurants nearby mostly towards the London Road side. The only small downside is that the nearest large supermarket is a bit further away than ideal if you don't have a car.

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

We have recently moved in so we haven't faced many issues yet but the building management was very efficient in assisting us with our move in process. They are also very friendly in our daily chats and always willing to answer our questions.

How great living right next to a park is. It feels amazing going out the front door and seeing all the green.

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

Great location in central Liverpool with easy access to public transport (bus and train station 5 minutes walk away) there is a Tesco extra attached to the building that is open until 11PM which is great. Nothing bad to say about the location aspect of this building. It must be stated that the staff managing the property are welcoming and very helpful.

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

There is an easy to use app for maintenance requests / metre readings and things logged here are completed quickly. Alternatively talking to staff in the central reception is easy and they are extremely helpful

I have lived here for 4 years now and I believe my original rent was just below £900. Currently this has increased to just below £1200 about just over an 8% a year which is pretty high in my opinion.
