A nice place to live

Lucy (Owner)

Verified Resident

Gainsford Road, E17

Apr 2024

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

Walthamstow is a great place to live for transport links, lots of shops, local breweries, William Morris gallery, community feel with the market. Gainsford Road is a nice quiet road to live on.

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

I would say that for people with kids that will need buggies etc, it may not be that easy to store them anywhere as residents are not allowed to leave anything in the corridors and there is not much storage within the flats

What is the best feature of your home:

The best feature of my home I think is the large windows and door so it’s nice and light and doesn’t feel claustrophobic

Lovely non practical design

Gainsford Road, E17

Apr 2024

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

There’s not many bars or restaurants yet but I think the area is still growing and improving so it does get better over time! Were not able to get residents parking for our road which is difficult, especially for those who have kids or trade jobs in the flats. We’ve had loads of issues with security, people breaking in and stealing bikes and parcels, and people using our bin shed to shoot up. Particularly in winter. Also lots of rats

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

I would advise anyone buying to rigorously challenge the security of their new build especially in areas that do have high crime rates

What is the best feature of your home:

Big windows let in a lot of light and make the space feel bigger and more open. The walk in aspect to the shower is also a clever use of space and makes it seem bigger than it really is

Mapleton Crescent, SW18

Dec 2022

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

Within 5 minutes walk you have Southside shopping centre with Cinema and food courts, large Sainsbury's and Waitrose, 4 gyms, two swimming pools, 6 pubs, large green areas of Kings George Park. Bus stop at the doorsteps.

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

There is the space for improvement. All major ideas executed through hard work of dedicated residents directors.

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

Wished we have moved here two years earlier, when first build. You can do your swim, grab a coffee and make shoppign all before a day even start.

Okay, not perfect

Cameron (Owner)

Bollo Lane, W4

Apr 2022

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

Chiswick is a delightful west London suburb with plenty of boutique shops, cafes, and amenities. We are very well connected with the overground, district, and Piccadilly lines

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

I wish I had known that pocket were going push back so hard on every issue raised during warranty. A lot of similar issues were seen by all residents and the after care was not great at all.

What is the best feature of your home:

The two shared roof terraces are lovely, hell with the communal feel, and provided a much needed outdoor area during lockdown.
