About Legal & General

I really enjoy being a resident at Spring Wharf. My one-bedroom flat has a modern, yet simple, design with big windows in the lounge and bedroom, meaning that we get lots of lovely natural light. The flat is an ideal size for me and my partner. The under-bed storage is a clever feature and after buying a couple of extra storage units, there is now plenty of space for all our stuff! I originally found the kitchen worktop space a bit limiting, but that was easily solved by adding another unit in here too. The extra facilities at Spring Wharf are amazing! I love having a shared garden space to sit out in and the resident’s lounge with its free hot drinks is a really lovely touch. The gym is brilliant and although it is quite small it is very functional and I use it regularly. Last but not least, the team at Spring Wharf are wonderful! They ensured we has a smooth move-in and are always very friendly and helpful!

The location is great! There is a Tesco Express, Lidl and M&S less than 10 minutes walk away and Sainsbury’s is only 5 minutes in the car! Oldfield Park station is really close by (about 7 mins walk) and if you need to go to Bath Spa station it’s about a 30 min walk or 10 mins in a taxi! I regularly walk into town, but there are also lots of restaurants and shops nearby. For example, there are some lovely cafes and shops on Moorland Road or Chelsea Road, which are both only 10 minute walks away! You are also not far from the river pathway and can either walk towards town, or if you go in the other direction you come to a lovely pub called the Locksbrook Inn.

It is advertised that you can make the apartment your own by decorating, but it is worth noting that you have to pay an approved handyman to come and do any of the work for you.

The new builds are very nicely done and have the feel of a posh hotel. The gym, residents lounge and residents deck give the place a luxury feel. All the team are very friendly and approachable. Little touches like free coffee and residents events make the difference. Only downside is parking which is expensive and guest parking is lacking.

Walking distance to Bath city centre and Moorland road high street. Supermarkets and pubs on door step. Downside is it’s on a busy main road.
