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

There's an Aldi supermarket for affordable groceries, Morrison's, and retail parks for everyday needs. Restaurants offer a good mix, like the Bang Bang Oriental Foodhall for East Asian cuisine, authentic Italian at Spaccanapoli, and kosher options at Mr Baker. Transportation is generally accessible, providing a 30 minute ride to central London by tube northern line or bus no.113. The street feel is mostly calm and safe.And the free RAF Museum with historic exhibits and play areas

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

The management team Mr Yusuf Khalifa are helpful,smart and good efficient.He will reply your email within 1-2days and try his best to slove the problem.

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

The new underground station is under construction.There is little traffic jam in peak hours .

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

We hope to have parking availability and more shops and restaurant come in. But there are a metro Tesco and a park around here.

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

Our fridge cabinet was broken, and it had been repaired after two days.

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

We love the small park around the building. And it is really close to the underground station.

Manager response

Hi April, Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and detailed review. It truly means a lot to us. We’re delighted to hear that you’ve been enjoying your home and that our reception and maintenance teams have made your experience feel welcoming and well-supported. Knowing that you feel comfortable coming home every day is exactly what we strive for. We’re also really glad to hear how much you enjoy the 27th-floor common space. It’s wonderful to know that the design, layout, and overall atmosphere make it a place you genuinely like spending time in — whether you’re relaxing, working, or catching up with friends. Your suggestion about increasing exterior window-cleaning frequency is very much appreciated. Feedback like this helps us understand what would make your experience even better, and we’ll definitely review what can be improved moving forward. As for the local area, we completely agree that the nearby park, Tesco, and close access to the Underground station add a lot of convenience. Hopefully, as the neighbourhood continues to grow, more shops and restaurants will join in as well. We’re happy to hear the small park has been a pleasant surprise for you since moving in. And thank you for mentioning the repair — we’re glad the fridge cabinet issue was resolved quickly for you. We’re genuinely grateful to have you as part of the community, and we’ll continue doing our best to maintain the high level of service and care that you’ve come to expect. If there’s ever anything more we can do, please don’t hesitate to let us know. Warm regards, Darek

Excellent location with easy access to tube, train, and supermarkets. The building is well-designed with good facilities—having two dishwashers is handy, though a professional one in the middle area would be even better. The staff are genuinely helpful, especially Kitti, Imran, and the lovely cute female team at night shift member. The only downside is that late-night support can be hard to reach despite being advertised as 24/7. Overall, a positive place to live.

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

The area is excellent — very close to both the tube and train, plus great supermarkets nearby. It’s super easy to get into Central London. Overall convenient and safe, though late at night the street can feel a bit quiet.

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

The management team has been very helpful and responsive. They follow up on any issues promptly. I’ve always received support from Kitti, Imran, and a lovely female staff member on the night shift.

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

I wish I had known more about the day-to-day routines and the best ways to communicate with the team. Tips from neighbours, such as which staff are most responsive at certain times, would have been really useful.
