The building is generously sized and the homes and communal areas feel light and spacious. I like the brickwork design on the outside of the buildings, much classier than cladding! The specs for kitchen, bathroom and appliances are high and the flat feels modern and luxurious to live in.

Energy efficient flat, which in this day and age with the price of energy is a great help. The location couldn’t be any better, easy reach of wood street station .We have a health centre and a dental surgery within a five minute walk and Whipps cross hospital just up the road. All in all very happy with our flat.

Overall, the external and internal layout of Braithwaite House is great. However, the placement of the radiators in the flat has been an issue (for others in the building too) particularly in the main bedroom where it looks like the main focal point. While the bike storage room is a great addition to the building, the on-wall vertical bike storage isn't user friendly and other options such as bike racks for the floor would have been helpful. Furthermore, the service charge itinerary wasn't well-explained to us and so it came as a surprised that our windows would not be covered. Our biggest annoyance is with EE Monitor. We have a recurring problem in our building in that we never have hot water and considering we have only been here since November this if proving very frustrating, not least because we had no choice and that the EE system was sold to us as the best alternative. The reality however is that we pay extortionate daily fee for the upkeep of something that simply does not work as good as it should.

The flat, i am enjoying with my family and disabled mum, is perfectly meets the requirements we need as large and wide rooms, extra spaces, balcony, two toilets and store rooms. The are also well ventilated and constructed keeping in mind the direction of sun so we can have max sunlight.

The flat itself is beautiful and has actually been somewhere I've been pleased to be locked down in! The kitchen feels high quality, as do things like the flooring - which in comparison to other apartment blocks is quite unusual. The communal areas are simple but what do we really need? Overall the whole building and the flats just feels completed to a really high standard.
