Living at Riverstone Heights on Reed Avenue has been a genuinely positive experience overall. The transport links are a real highlight — Bromley-by-Bow tube station is literally a 2-minute walk, putting Canary Wharf just 14 minutes away and Bank under 30. For anyone commuting into the City or Docklands, it's hard to beat. The building itself is well-managed with a concierge, roof terrace, and shared spaces that make day-to-day life comfortable. The River Lea is close by for walks and cycling, and Victoria Park is reachable on foot — a great green escape. A big Tesco is 2mins walk and Sainsbury as well. It's also very reachable to Canary Wharf and Stratford Westfield shopping centre.

The apartment itself is very spacious with good-sized rooms, which makes a big difference to day-to-day living. The local area is very convenient, with a wide range of shops nearby and plenty of options for food, including a large selection on Uber Eats and Deliveroo. There are also weekly food trucks from local vendors, which is a great addition. For families, there are around 4–5 schools within walking distance (roughly 2 to 15 minutes), which is really helpful. Transport links are excellent, with Tottenham Hale station just a 3–5 minute walk away, making commuting very easy. In terms of downsides, on-street parking is quite limited, which can be challenging if you have a car. However, overall the area is lively, convenient, and well-connected.

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

I’ve personally experienced very quick and efficient responses from the building management whenever needed, which has been reassuring. Maintenance issues have been handled promptly and professionally. I also think residents play a part in how well the building is maintained, and in the block I live in, this has generally been positive, as I’ve had very limited issues overall.

Living in Birmingham city centre is vibrant and convenient. Great mix of shops, restaurants, bars and green spaces like Cannon Hill Park nearby. Excellent transport links via Birmingham New Street station make commuting easy. Parking can take planning, but a lively, friendly atmosphere make it a great place to live.

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

I have nothing bad to say, but my experience here disturbs due to the flat size. To be honest it’s average size of the same other flats in the city. I want to feel more comfortable in larger places which I can’t found it here. Also I felt the prices were increased and I think they follow the market prices.

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

The area itself is very well located, with easy access to shops, restaurants, and entertainment, and it’s close to the city centre. Transport is also very convenient, with trains, trams, and buses all nearby.

The only downside is that mobile signal can be quite poor at times. That said, even if I had known this beforehand, I would still have chosen to move here, as it’s not easy to find a good place in this city.
