Burlington Square, M15

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

The location of Burlington Square is great, transport into town is very easy and bus stops are within a few minutes walking distance. The area is great as Asda is a 5 minute walk. There is a newsagents across the road so everything is very accessible.

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

They have responded okay. In my first year of living here there was one situation which I feel could have been handled quicker. However the staff are all very helpful and reassured me since then.

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

I would recommend parking downstairs and making use of the facilities. It is just safer, especially since living here I have heard of quite a few robberies happening!

I have been residing in Burlington Square for the past 3 years and a half (since 2021), and I think I can fairly put a good judgment of the property and the team for now. First, the team are slow in reported issues as they hardly get back with no consistent follow-up. First year, I had a window incident, which took about 6 months to fix it and it was a high-risk broken entire window from lightening. Also, there is always been the issue of pedestrian walk right outside the property, which I also reported earlier (a year ago). As when you step on the bricks, when it rains you constituently get splashed. These small things, I think add up to the overall image I think about when recommending someone to the property. Somehow could be also demotivating at certain times, as they are the way the management is looking after you as a resident. Also, another bad point I want to mention is the lack of windows in the property, it has caused me allergy, and I think having no window (in my case not even in my room), is a big concern for the health of individuals over the long-term. Apart from this, location is good, and the infrastructure is good enough for property.

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

The lack of windows will cause future health issues for my end.

What is the best feature of your home:

location and view is great! These two things were a priority for me that I did not find in other local properties.

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

Great location, bus round the corner very useful some parking availability but I think the private parking offer is too expensive.

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

Beautifully designed gym but very limited facilities, doesn’t have barbells, cable machine or any pull up bar.

What is the best feature of your home:

Layout of the flat is brilliant and the receptionists are great!
