Fizzy Stepney Green, E1

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

Good value for money, close to central London. The area is getting more and more gentrified by the year.

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

Any issue I have had has gotten sorted the next day.

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

The building can be a tad on the hot side. It is still Stepney.

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

Love the proximity to the station and parks. Also proximity to halal restaurants. Parking is a bit of an issue for my visitors. Peaceful from a noise perspective.

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

They respond quite efficiently but haven’t been able to fix the heating issue mentioned above.

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

Peaceful area, maintenance is not a big hassle, heating is a drawback. Check before you take the apartment.

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

Building is a short walk from a number of stations, shops, the canal and park. The roads are relatively quiet as the one way system at the front works well.

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

Responses within the day to any issues with friendly staff always on hand to help and advise around maintenance

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

The wider location is really positive with a lot of green space at the parks and canal, the local Stepney Green farm and cafe. Good pubs and shops and other amenities nearby.

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

Great transport links to central London and Canary Wharf. Lots of restaurants on Mile End Road and close to Victoria Park for dog walks.

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

Issues are dealt with promptly, even on a bank holiday someone was able to assist.

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

I wish I had known more about the community sport at Fizzy.

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

Quite a few convenience stores around, and a nice Stepney Green Farm to visit on the weekend + stroll along the canal is always good.

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

We had some issues with the floor material and that was fixed in the first week of moving in, any questions on electric/water meters we’d always get replies so very helpful!

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

The surroundings might be dirty from time to time either from people littering, bad waste disposal from the council or some other factors, so be ready. Apart from that, it’s quite a nice development where energy efficiency is the key. But as I live in a one bed apartment I’d prefer to have a 2 bed instead.
