Been here almost a year and it’s a brilliant place for me and my partner. She works at the Airport so being close to the motorway she can jump straight on and be there in no time. For myself I work close by so I can walk to work, but I do love about so easy for me to utilise the motorway or the public transport.
Train station right on our doorstep to get to Manchester in 15 minutes or we can walk 5 minutes to Stockport town centre where they have shops, restaurants and cinema. Plenty of local bars and restaurants. The building itself is managed really well, constantly being cleaned and any problems that arise are sorted as quick as possible. A brilliant place to live, close to everything, but once inside it you have your own little space where you don’t get disturbed.
Centralised location, train station and bus stops on our doorstep. Stockport town centre 5 minutes walk and Manchester Centre 15 minutes by train. Lots of bars and restaurants close by, but not directly on the doorstep which is nice. Located on the A6 which is one of the busiest roads in Manchester, only problem is the sirens from the emergency services all hours of the day and night. Windows do a great job of blocking out the noise from all the sirens and traffic though.
Lots of emergency service sirens which you get use to and the windows are really good that it blocks them out.
A couple of plumbing problems arose but we sorted within a couple of days. Very quick to fix things.
Overall review is this apartment is great. Great layout and plenty of space with a modern design and gadgets. Property management is amazing as well as lovely and welcoming and attentive staff and landlord.
Very very attentive land Lord! If any problems arise, he attends to it or assigns a staff member the same day. Lovely staff. However, the location is in town centre and as expected there is a lot of traffic and noise sometimes even at night time which is irritating.
I wish I could have known about the quality of paint is not great as it stains very easily.
A staff member was assigned for any problems or issues raised to the landlords the same day and was solved within 1 day.
Apartments are well finished and warm. However, they do tend to get too hot in the summer. On the plus side, not much heating is used in the winter. A free gym is available in the basement and there is a roof patio for leisure. However, indoor social spaces are somewhat lacking ( there is a central atrium, but this is overlooked by a lot of flats and therefore using it for social gatherings is not convenient).
Excellent transport links with buses and trains from Stockport station, great public transport and driving link to Manchester airport, development is very close to a variety of shops. Unfortunately, parking in the development is limited and while multistory third party parking is available, it is more expensive. Traffic noise from Wellington Road is also noticable.
We wish we’d known how hot the flat would get in the summer. The rooms are very generously sized but because of this, they tend to get quite dark as while the windows are very large, they are located at the end of the long rooms.
Management generally responds appropriately although occasionally responses could be faster.
The design and management of the building is great, they have thought of a lot of aspects when designing the building. The only thing I would like improved is the gym facilities, apart from that everything is great and they stay on top of it ad well.
The location is optimal with public transport links surrounding the building but there is a parking issue, both for the residents and guests
I have nothing to say about this point as I’m happy with the building
I had an issue with my kitchen sink and they were quick to respond until it was resolved
