Vibrant and young neighborhood

Review Date Mar 2023

One of the biggest advantages of living in East Village is its convenient location. It is well-connected to the rest of London, with excellent transport links to the city center and other areas of London. The Stratford station, which is one of the largest transport hubs in London, is just a short walk away from East Village. This makes it easy for residents to commute to work or explore other parts of London.

East Village is also a very safe and secure area. The community is gated and has 24-hour security, which gives residents peace of mind. The area is well-lit at night, and there are plenty of CCTV cameras around, making it one of the safest areas in London.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

London. It was built as the Athletes’ Village for the 2012 Olympic Games and has been transformed into a vibrant and diverse community in recent years.

There are plenty of amenities in East Village, including shops, restaurants, cafes, and bars. The Westfield Stratford City shopping center, which is one of the largest shopping centers in Europe, is located nearby, providing residents with a wide range of shopping and dining options.

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

Noise levels can be high due to the nearby school.

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

When I raise a problem or issue, the building management team responds promptly and professionally. They acknowledge the problem and provide a timeline for resolution.

Manager Response

Hi Mattia

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us such positive feedback. We are so pleased that you enjoy living here so much, and that you have been so happy with the service we have provided – we promise to keep it up!

If you need anything at all please do not hesitate to contact us.

We love East Village!

Review Date Nov 2023

The townhouses are well renovated with modern and stylish furniture, with a spacious layout across the floors and more than enough storage space. Also really grateful for how quickly maintenance requests are attended to (usually next day), and the care taken to keep hedges and courtyard looking good.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

Love living in EV. The best parts about the local area are the green spaces and transport links (buses, the DLR, south eastern trains and multiple lines from Stratford station). Safety is also a big thing. The area feels safe as it’s well-lit and it’s great that there’s a route from Stratford station that cuts through Westfield throughout the night!

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

What sort of events are going on in the local area

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

We usually get a quick and helpful response to any maintenance requests.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

There are so many cute local cafes, green spaces and stores. Overall, it is a very safe neighborhood.

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

That it is a quite and safe area, perfect for families.

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

Management is easily accessible however completing procedures take time.

Get Living have an amazing range of developments, they’re all in great condition and ideally placed. They are expensive, but pretty much in current market range so it’s probably worth it over anywhere else. Green spaces galore, and loads of links to central or local spots like Hackney Wick. 10/10

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

A great range of both amenities and green spaces. Shops are great quality and all restaurants locally are dog friendly.

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

Nothing really, all pretty transparent. Probably the cladding works if I’m really nitpicking

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

Yes, consistently and within a few hours normally.

Flat is spacious and well designed

Review Date Nov 2023

Very pleased with our building. We have green space just nearby and my partner and I both have underground parking. Communal areas have a cleaner weekly and neighbours are friendly. Our flat is very spacious and well designed. It’s a shame that we currently have scaffolding up but I understand the importance of the works being completed

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

Very good. Quite noisy as we are close to the road. Gorgeous open spaces and fab small businesses. Doesn’t feel like living in London

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

All very good, just wish we would’ve been aware of the building works that were to begin

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

Yeah: whenever we have had maintenance problems they have been very quick to respond

Great location!

Review Date Nov 2023

Design is very modernised, suitable for commuters and families too. Great location and access to everything you need. Houses are spacious and kept clean, streets are safe and tidy with daily bin collections! Everything you could need, would renew contract.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

Great small business, local supermarkets and shopping centre. Train station distance is perfect and lots of private parking!

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

Parking permits – privately not through the council

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

Yes – great communication and any issues resolved promptly

Review Date Nov 2023

Getliving has provided outstanding support for the residency in East Village! The onboard process was also very straightforward and comprehensive. The facilities have a great price-quality ratio all things considered. The building is managed reasonably well.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

East village is THE cute little corner of East London. The olympic park is a delight for runs and dog/people watching.

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

The area around a bit more, in terms of transport as Stratford station can be a bit overwhelming.

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

For most part in great form. They are also informative and provide suggestions for addressing with the issues whilst maintenance is on their way.

Lovely place to live

Verified Resident

Review Date Nov 2023

The building is well maintained and any issues are sorted out very quickly. The postboxes could be placed somewhere not visible from the street so when parcels are left in front of them they are not stolen by tailgaters. Otherwise the building is very nice and well managed.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

The area is super close to Westfield Stratford shopping centre and has a lot of good links to the rest of london with the central, jubilee and Elizabeth lines as well as the overground and DLR.

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

We can get a lot of noise from the westham matches and there has been a bit of antisocial behaviour in the area.

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

For maintance they are amazing and usually fix it very quickly. For other areas they are pretty bad. They don’t even let you leave keys for other tenants with them when a new tenant is moving in.

Easy living

Verified Resident
Verified Resident
Review Date Nov 2023

The design of the buildings and features of the properties, especially the newer ones, are fantastic – high spec, excellent quality, and service and maintenance on demand when required. There are also loads of communal areas and community groups to join to stay involved with your friends and neighbours in the area.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

The area is full of really nice independent coffee shops, restaurants, and lots of green spaces. It is also nice to be part of a historical area of London, given the proximity of many of the Olympic games venues.

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

I wish I had moved in sooner. I really like living in the area.

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

Yes – using the Get Living app, it is very easy to book a quick maintenance appointment

Very clean and serene area

Verified Resident

Review Date Nov 2023

Well laid out and very clean and serene area. Building and property management is done very well. The use of the app to log maintenance works very well and is efficient and turn around time is quite fast. Would have been nicer if buildings had gyms within them.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

Easy transport links with multiple options available. Limited visitor parkings available in the area. Limited convenience stores within then village as the Sainsbury is quite small. Range of local and niche shops around the area.

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

Check how the inside of the cupboard had been build. Can be quite difficult to register with a GP nearby

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

All responses have been quite fast and all issues resolved timely.
