Amazing apartment

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

Living in my area is generally convenient and pleasant. There are several supermarkets close by, and both the tube station and bus station are only a short walk away, making transport easy and reliable. The chute system for rubbish works well most of the time, although it does occasionally stop working. Overall, the neighbourhood has good access to daily essentials and feels comfortable to live in.

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

The building management has been really responsive whenever I’ve raised any problems. They usually acknowledge issues quickly, keep me updated on progress, and follow through until everything is resolved. Their communication is clear, and they make an effort to ensure that any concerns are handled professionally and efficiently, which I really appreciate.

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

Honestly, there wasn’t really anything I wish I had known before moving in. Nothing unexpected has come up, and everything has been pretty much as expected from the viewing.

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

The good aspects of living in my local area is the fact that we are surrounded with shops, supermarkets, restaurants, markets and a great transport links to the rest of London city. I have not seen a school near by so far .

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

They respond to the queries by email most of the time.

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

I wish I had known that I would find the apartment partially furnished and wardrobe quite standard before I moved in.

Review of the Eades!

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

You can find transportation within a few feet from the apartment, with a train station and bus station just opposite eachother it’s very handy to get from place to place. Loads of shops within walking distance for groceries or housewarming amenities. There is also a great market with amazing finds!

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

We have had a few issues with our hot water and pressure, even though it was a few times the management team noted it and sorted it straight away, they even went a step further to provide us keys to another room with a working shower for the meantime.

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

I wish I had known the trains next to us would be a little bit noisy (doesn’t bother me but I heard some mixed reviews from other residents)

Generally really nice - the building is new and clean, the area as well is really convenient for travel with a nearby tube station

Yes, we had a small issue with our towel rail heating and when reported, they came the same day to show us how it works.

I wish I had known that the building was this close to a big grocery store because I wouldve decided to move in sooner!

Manager response

Hi Jacob, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! We’re delighted to hear that you’re enjoying the building, from the cleanliness and recent updates to the greenery in the lobby—we love that it helps create a comfortable environment for residents. It’s great to know the location has been convenient for you, and we’re especially happy that the proximity to the grocery store turned out to be such a pleasant surprise. We also appreciate your kind words about our maintenance team; we always aim to respond quickly, so we're glad the towel rail issue was resolved promptly. Thanks again for your thoughtful review—we’re really pleased to have you as part of the community! Kind regards, Darek

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

The location is perfect and close to lots of shops and public transport but the noise from the train is the downside and no allocated parking for residents and visitors.

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

Yes. They make sure to get it resolved right away.

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

Nothing. The agent has kept us well-informed with all the things that we have to know prior moving in. Great team!
