Great location, great building, could be more energy efficient
The building itself has been well designed and is lovely to live in. Modern design with great amenities including a washer/dryer, dish washer, fridge freezer, oven and hob etc. Energy rating is awful and the lack of insulation of the property means bills are incredibly high, however can be overlooked when considering the overall ease of living here. Building management is handled well, always clean in the hallways and outside of the property is well kept.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Great range of local shops, not many restaurants but as to be expected further out from the centre. Open space next to abbey park is fantastic and convenient. Abbey park road hasn’t been developed well and the road leading into the housing development is heavily populated. Would be better as permit parking to allow residents to park only. Lots of littering happens outside our property from drivers, I have personally picked up a lot of waste from local littering individuals which has been harmful to local wildlife.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The building is always quiet and all neighbours are friendly. Bills will be higher than expected and there’s a lot of bugs being next to the river.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
We requested an extractor fan repair which took 4 months to be attended to however everything else has been dealt with really well
