Excellent temporary accommodation between moving home, which ticks all our boxes.

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

Excellent central location with convenient parking provided. There perhaps should be some arrangement for 'home shopping' deliveries as this is common practice. How do you get home shopping from the arrival point to your appartment ?

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

2 small issues quickly resolved at our convenience.

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

Can't think of anything off hand; all information required was provided.

Top location, top management team. Helga is the best!

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

Tube station 1 minute walk away and 30mins to Liverpool st station direct , large tesco next door. What else do you need ?! Potentially a good cafe will make this location spot on. Whats great is a loading bay area for your delivery van (basement, if small enough, and outdoors for the rest) to bring in your belongings conveniently.

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

Yes, almost immediately . We had minor issues in the toilet and the ceiling which they helped address - theres a convenient whatsapp number u can message the team on.

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

At your doorstep you may not necessarily have access to a good cafe for your barista fixes - the nearest is at Bow Road which is not too far and the fact the a huge Tesco and the tube station a minute away from the entrance meant that the tradeoff is fine for us. This is a build- to-rent property which means that the team will have your keys and may need to enter while you are away to conduct maintenance.

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

The area is commute convenient, but there’s not much yet to do in terms of restaurants - that being said, the coffee shop and Friday food truck pop up is great!

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

Promptly I would say - no complaints. Was generally happy.

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

Paying for the communal area bookings upstairs and the cost of them - though this was implemented after move in

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

Absolutely love the proximity to convenient stores and the station. Theres a good amount of takeout pots to discover. It’s also quiet and safe neighbourhood to live in. The only thing I wish was better is availability of free parking.

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

I’ve raised one issue and it was dealt with as quickly as possible

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

I would have love to know that some service providers don’t work efficiently here

A High-Quality, Quiet, and Well-Managed Waterside Home

WHC (Tenant)

Verified Resident

The Kell, ME4

Nov 2025

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

Location & Setting - The Kell is beautifully positioned on the waterfront of Chatham Docks, which gives it a very peaceful, scenic feel. It’s lovely to have riverside walks nearby, and the surroundings feel modern but not sterile. The area is quiet and friendly, with local shops, takeaways, and an Asda very close by. Transport & Connectivity - It's fairly well-connected: there are bus routes, and although the train station is a 20-minute walk, the trade-off is the tranquility and the quality of life here.

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

Any issues raised are dealt with efficiently, which really adds to the feeling that this is a well-run community.

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

Transport Limitation - While buses are nearby, the distance to the train station is a downside. Network Limitation - Mobile signal inside the building can be weak due to the building structure.
