Very solid and good quality development

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

Place has a wide variety of shops, restaurants, supermarkets, entertainment, market and trendy places - you have all you need within walking distance. Transport links are solid Victoria Line, Overground and Bus routes plenty! Very good for cycling to as there is good cycling infrastructure and plenty scenic routes - I cycle to Canary Wharf at times but canal and cycling routes plenty! Its very safe, good strong and diverse community!

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

Yes and if it cannot be fixed there and then they always give me something to get by until its fixed. Cannot mention how good the team have been - they make you feel welcome and at home.

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

Would be good to know that some formalities cannot be completed until a formal handover of ownership happens to the landlord. IE utilities switch but this is a minor point and has not affected my enjoyment of the place.

Living in the Lansdowne is a really enjoyable experience

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

It’s a very nice and safe area and the building has many facilities so you don’t even have to leave the building for gym for example. However, the transport links to university aren’t the closest so it isn’t the most ideal.

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

They are very quick to respond and friendly and helpful, like Augustina helped a lot.

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

I wish would’ve known that there isn’t a microwave in the kitchen.

Living in The Kell, Gillingham is great — it’s a quiet and friendly area with everything nearby. There are local shops, takeaways, and big ASDA.

The building management team has always been very helpful and responsive. Any issues I’ve raised were dealt with quickly and professionally. They’re easy to contact and always follow up to make sure everything is sorted.

I wish I had known how peaceful and quiet the area is — it’s even nicer than I expected. Everything is well maintained, and It’s a great place to live, especially if you like a calm and modern environment.
