Great atmosphere and community

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

Without being right on the busy high street, there is quick and easy access to shops, restaurants and a library, just a walk away. Only downside is that traffic does tend to build up quite a bit right outside at certain times in the day.

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

Management has always been quick and efficient in responding to problems. Always approachable and friendly.

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

How much bills would actually cost. This was made out that it would be low and affordable, but even with being scarce the bills are high and there’s not much you can do about it.

The Eades, E17

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

The Eades is situated in the heart of Walthamstow: Victoria line, Weaver line, bus station with routes across London, independent shops and much-loved chains; all on your doorstep (literally). Whilst parking in Walthamstow is notoriously difficult, with many new developments not building in parking spaces to meet the council's 'Greener Borough' plans; The Eades went against the grain, meeting the residents' needs of allocating parking spaces for a fee. And to still match (rather exceed) the borough's 'Greener Borough' plans, has built a large space in the basement for bike storage and has a mixture of indoor/outdoor greenery. We are fortunate to have a clear and thorough bin collection system in place at The Eades, with bins collections happening weekly and residents provided with various options on how to dispose of our waste appropriately I.e. Waste bins, recycling bins, food waste bins and unwanted clothing collection services by TRAID. Waltham Forest as a whole is an incredibly vibrant, inclusive and proud Borough - represented by over 250k residents, from all different backgrounds, religions, ethnicities, experiences, gender identities and family structures... The list goes on. The Eades is a miniature, yet true reflection, of the borough. But more precisely, the talent, kindness and supportive attitude of Walthamstow.

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

Yes, they are entirely on top with any issues raised. Residents are offered multiple pathways tor side concerns: Way of Life app, email and speaking directly to the concierge team.

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

I can't really think of anything I wish I would've known beforehand...

Multiple range of shops in the area like a Asda, Lidl, and a Londis. Just over the road is a restaurant. Amazing convenience to anyone living here.

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

How nice and respectful the other residents are in this building, even when passing another resident they always look happy and when I talk to them they have nothing bad to say about the place or the staff.
