We believe the best information about a residential development comes from the people living there. Owners and tenants have a lot of useful information to share with their prospective neighbours, not just on the property itself and its locality, but also on the developer and the building’s management.

The build itself is of great quality with the flat and building nice to live in. Flat is very warm, with access to multiple areas of green space. The surrounding area has also been done up which makes for a nice commute. Property management is a work in progress but being resolved by residents as part of a strong group of like minded individuals.

I moved in 10 months ago and love it here. I’ve seen a lot of complaints about the quality of the homes and noise between them. I haven’t had these problems. Completely sound proof from adjacent flats and only the occasional bump from the flat above. Can hear through the windows etc, but that’s pretty normal for london and a lot quieter than anywhere I’ve lined before. As far as putting shelves up etc, most of the walls are fireproof double lined plaster board, there’s no problem putting shelves up, you just need to find the beams if it’s holding a heavy load. I’ve only had very minor issues with the flat, all cosmetic, and were reported as snagging and fixed within a few months of moving in. Eons heating isn’t the cheapest and you don’t have the option to switch but the flats do hold the heat well. I’m a single woman and I’ve never felt so safe. The appartment is very secure, the building and garden has a fob entry system and you even need a fob / buzzer to access the lift to your floor. There’s a digital concierge machine that takes parcels for you securely whilst you’re out. Every room has a fire alarm and sprinkler, and each apartment has a 2hr fireproofing. The balcony is a great size and gets the midday sun. From a building management point of view, there has been a few disruptive neighbours who have moved in. You don’t seem to get much of a response from complaints, but I have noticed an improvement from the situation so I think it’s being addressed. If like to see a stricter response from the management on these matters. I’ll wait to see what happens but I’d say that’s the only negative I’ve had so far.

I like the design of the flats around central courtyards and being near to water. Wish I had more of a view of the Wetlands but they are covered over by buildings! The building is super secure all the boring stuff like bins etc. are very convenient! Also huge bike store so I may be forced to buy a bike!

On the outside the building looks nice however there are multiple issues that we've uncovered in the ONE month we have been living here. We are literally counting the days until our contract is up and we can leave. No response from management when you try to raise any issues

I've been living in the development for about two months. So far it has been lovely. The flat is well designed and spacious. After years of living in small places, I literally am happy waking up in the morning. The development is just opposite victoria line tube station, this makes travel around town so much easier. The neighbourhood is fine, I would only mention one negative thing - the lack of parking. This is difficult for visitors as well.
