You're rather spoilt living centrally here, the location is incredibly convenient for a number of reasons. Having lived in Brighton since 2011, The Lanes have always been one of my favourite parts of the city, and now living just a 5 minute walk from the North Laine is brilliant. You'll find some of the quirkiest independent shops around, as well as a whole host of practical ones. From shops selling musical instruments to socks, independent coffee shops and bakeries to comic books. There are countless little local cafes and eateries offering a wide range of foods from all over the world, whatever you're looking for, you'll find it here. Snoopers Paradise is an Aladdin's Cave of vintage and antique trinkets and I'd challenge anyone not to leave with at least something! Infinity Foods is a local organic supermarket with everything you could ever need, including the best organic sourdough bread, always sourcing delicious and exciting new produce from around the world while supporting local and seasonal suppliers. Brighton Station is a stone's throw from the building and you can be in London in an hour. London Road is a 2 minute walk with great transport links, a post office, chemists and supermarkets. Preston Park is an 8 minute walk and is a lovely area of greenery, very popular with runners, walkers and dog owners. Parking has never been an issue for us, whether using the nearby London Road Car Park or finding a space on the street outside. Traffic noise in the summer can be a bit overwhelming if you have your windows open, but the soundproofing is excellent and ensures we sleep very well at night!

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

I haven’t really had too many problems living here as the building is thankfully very well built! However, when I do email, my queries are always responded to on the same day, usually within a few hours. Maintenance issues are dealt with promptly with good communication. We have 2 cats so I like to be here whenever checks are carried out on the doors or fire alarms and the team are always accommodating around my availability. I always feel listened to, heard and respected, and any concerns I have had have been handled with care and professionalism.

My one and only quibble living here is probably the bar on Elder Place, which can be very loud in the summer months. Depending on what side of the building you live however, this wont be an issue for all apartments and is subject to your tolerance level for noise!

It’s a nice and quiet neighbourhood and the building is next to river Wandle. With some cute boutique shops and restaurants/cafe plus the train station at 5 mins walk, it’s a perfect location and well connected. There’s also ample parking space and no traffic noise at all. Close by you have a beautiful park and also a nature walk track along the river. Sainsbury’s, M&S, and Tesco are all 5 mins away and at about 1.5 miles there’s a shopping mall.

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

I did not have any problems but whenever I had even a minor issue, the management team was extremely responsive and helpful. A special shoutout to Eriona and Nicco, who are the warmest and most generous people managing the development.

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

I didn’t know about the community events in the building, so that came as a pleasant surprise. Loved being a part of the community and thoroughly enjoyed every gathering and event.
