Property design is good, I like the en-suite. Love the doors and the size of the balcony. Kitchen is very nice and functional.
It would have been nice to have a bit more storage cupboard space and larger wardrobe. The central heating system is not easy to programme and the washer/dryer doesn’t dry the clothes properly so had to buy an airer and hang my clothes out to dry.

Thank you for taking the time to review your home!
The nicest place I’ve lived!
The building itself is great and the Bob’s are really helpful. The local area could use some more social venues but it is very easy to get public transport. The lift has been a problem, but on the whole, bobs have been good at updating us
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The tube and busses are a few minutes walk away.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
That the people here are approachable and animal friendly.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
They email or call within a day or two and fix the problem.

Thank you for your great review Jo, we hope you continue to enjoy renting here.
Recommend it
Property managers are fantastic. Very efficient and effective. Highly personalised.
Higher quality materials could have been used for the building but it’s being mitigated by excellent maintenance and being a new building.
Apartments are spacious. Rooms are good sized. Better than comparable new builds around the area.
I would have liked to see more parking spaces and at more affordable prices.
I definitely recommend this place particularly if you don’t use a car.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
There’s not much to do in the area but the development is 2 mins walk from the tube station which is amazing.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The landlord is transparent and as long as you read the agreement beforehand you will not have any surprises.
What is the best feature of your home:
The property managers are definitely great. They handle everything from deliveries to maintenance without having to take time off work.

Fizzy Blackhorse
The building itself is exactly what we needed, modern, clean really practical.
A real highlight is that parcels can be accepted during the day while we’re out, it makes shopping online far too easy!!
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Blackhorse Road is a great area, well connected via Victoria line and Overground.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
We anticipated it would been easier to have a cleaner and that that would be something the BOB could facilitate.
If there is one thing you would change about your flat or property what would it be:
Fizzy management must sort out the refuse situation in the block, it’s unacceptable.

Thank you for your review, we agree the location is ideal. We are working on the refuse situation, obviously during these unprecedented times it is a little trickier to police but we hope everyone takes more responsibility and the situation will improve in the near future.
Good place to live
Main gripe about the building is that it has a communal heating and hot water system which has broken down numerous times, leaving us with cold showers and cold buildings.
Other than that, the Fizzy development is very good for a number of reasons, pets being allowed is great for a start. The buildings are very modern and relatively easy to keep clean and warm. Couple of areas of strange design where the architects didn’t think things through properly. Concierge service for parcels is fantastic and the building managers do a good job.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The development is super close to Blackhorse Road tube – so very well connected. Local area is a bit quiet but improving all the time.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Take a look at co-working space, very nice with treats for your pets.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Generally fast to respond. Main issue we have had is that the hot water issue, which is usually fixed within the day whenever it occurs.

Fizzy Living
The flats are pretty spacious, and you hardly ever hear your neighbours. Everything is pretty new and kept well. Building management responds to things in a quick fashion, they’re always alert and aware of what’s happening in the development.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The tube/bus stops are conveniently located. There are shops near by to do last minute shops. Also a quiet and safe area.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
If construction is happening next to your building, check how long it will take.
What is the best feature of your home:
All the natural lighting coming from the windows and doors.

Living at fizzy!
The design of our flat is perfect. Aesthetically, the flat is clean and homely – whats great it’s functional too. You can also rent out furniture which is super easy for those who aren’t willing to take the leap of buying their own now. The building has a co working space which is great if you’re getting cabin fever in your flat. The best bit about Fizzy however is Jason and Meena, who look after the building. They are super helpful when it comes to answering questions or checking things.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The development is right next to the Victoria line, meaning easy access to almost all of London. The wetlands are a stones throw away and are a great place to see some amazing birds and connect with nature. St James street has a few great places to eat a 10-15 minute walk away. More locally there is Yasars for kebab Armstrong Audio for great coffee, and Wood Street Kitchen for breakfast. If you enjoy yoga and climbing Yonder is great also.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
One thing I would have liked to have known is the insects in the summer, due to being by the wetlands.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
They have always responded quickly and efficiently.

Thank you so much for your amazing review! We hope that you continue to enjoy renting with us in Fizzy Walthamstow!
Excellent location, great design!
The Development and the apartments themselves are great, beautifully designed and spacious. It’s great having concierge for post. However, management is slow to respond and can be a bit frustrating to deal with. Any maintenance issues take far too long to be dealt with.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Transport links are ideal being so close to Blackhorse Rd. It’s a short walk to the wetlands and 15 mins or so into town.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
That the property managers and maintenance would be so slow to respond to issues.
If there is one thing you would change about your flat or property what would it be:
It would be good to have parking included with each flat.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review!
Great flat, poor building management.
The flat is great, well furnished and spacious.
However, we have had several issues with building management such as hot water not working and the lift being out of service for over a week.
There is an app to report faults but we have found that we still have to follow this up with an email to get issues resolved.
Response times to queries and general communication is poor.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Great transport links, close to local high street and wetlands.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
There are no visitor parking spaces available and no on street parking nearby
If there is one thing you would change about your flat or property what would it be:
A larger heater in the kitchen/lounge, it takes a while for the flat to warm up.

Review
The design of the building is generally quite good. However, there are frequent issues around the facilities in the complex; the lifts are often out of order and the gates to the complex are frequently open due to the failing magent strips on the entrance gate. In terms of value, I would expect better service for the price and more support from the company itself.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The local area has great transport links and convenience stores
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
That there is no contact at the weekend except for emergencies.
What is the best feature of your home:
The flat design is nice and the communal gardens are pleasant
