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

The local area is very convenient and pleasant to live in. There are plenty of shops, supermarkets, cafés and restaurants nearby, which makes day-to-day life easy. Public transport links are good, with bus and train/tube options within a reasonable distance. There are also some nice open spaces for walks and exercise. The street is generally quiet and feels safe.

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

Building management has generally responded well to any issues raised. They are polite and helpful, and most problems have been dealt with within a reasonable timeframe. Communication has been clear, and I feel that they take residents’ concerns seriously.

One thing I wish I had known before moving in is that parking can sometimes be limited at busy times, so it is worth planning ahead if you have a car or regular visitors. Apart from that, the development is convenient, comfortable and easy to settle into.

There is always construction work going on. Lovely facilities but doesn't really mean much when you can't use them all the time. Super easy to get to central London though, and lots of options for walks/running.

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

Trying to get help from them is the equivalent of speaking to an Amazon chatbot that doesn't understand English.

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

If I had known how much money and sleep I would lose from these issues and the lack of help from management, I would not have moved in. I'm not sure if any other apartments have the same issue, but apparently, there was another person who had a similar issue in the past, and they also provided no help in his case. Lovely place, but would not recommend moving into *number removed* or even trying to seek help from management.

The Draper is in a great location. Bus services are just on the main road and Colindale tube is 10 minute walk. There is a Tesco local just 5 minutes walk away and larger supermarkets just a few minutes by car. Life in the building itself is very quiet. The local area is also very peaceful and the park on the estate is lovely. I feel very safe and haven’t experienced any anti social behaviour.

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

We had an issue with our washing machine and the maintenance team were very quick to respond. The appropriate professionals attended. The issue was resolved very satisfactorily and with minimal disruption to myself.

I haven’t experienced any downside as yet. I don’t think I will. I’m very happy here and very pleased to have been able to secure an appartment.

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.

Staff are very friendly and keen to help whenever I have some issues.

It is Dog friendly; It doesn't have gym; The common space is so good!
