The development is great, I love the layout of my flat. We are three girls living here and the layout let’s us have space and privacy from each other but is still nice and open spaced. The facilities are good, large bin stores and very secure entrance into the complex.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
I love how close the fizzy apartments are to everything that Blackhorse lane has to offer. A few minutes walk to the underground station is a god send! My commute has drastically shortened and in the winter I’m forever grateful. The flats are super close to coop and a grocers just across the street. We have access to everything we need and more.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I’d have know about the ongoing building works that are opposite our balcony and the working times. It’s very noisy.
If there is one thing you would change about your flat or property what would it be:
The only thing I would change in my flat would be the living room blinds! They break easily and could be a better quality. But other than that, everything is great.

Great place to live in a nice area with lots of potential
We were really pleased to find this modern flat with a nice balcony in a cool and growing neighborhood! Fizzy really makes life easier (no better test than moving houses during a pandemic!). What impressed us the most was Jason and Meena’s (our BOBs) responsiveness and friendliness at all times, all our questions answered and minor issues resolved super quickly. The building is really well kept and the app brings a sense of community that you don’t find easily in London.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The location in blackhorse road is super convenient to get to central and the wetlands around the corner are just superb for a walk or a run. Great transport links but not an awful lot of restaurant and bar options. It surely will become more attractive for new business as soon as the pandemic is over considering the amount of construction around and number of young professionals coming to this area. In any case, we’re really enjoying life here.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I think this was mentioned in other reviews but the bathtub is quite shallow so not the most comfortable for baths.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes, very responsive to any query or issue raised, before and after moving in.

I’ve been really happy here the flat is well designed, good insulation so it keeps warm, it has everything I need it’s all felt very comfortable and convenient. Anytime there has been an issue the property manager has been really helpful and it’s been sorted quickly.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The location is great it’s only a few mins away from the tube, lots of coffee shops around, supermarket etc.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I was given all the info I needed before I moved in so there wasn’t anything that took me by surprise. I would definitely recommend living here.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The property manager is really friendly and helpful. When I moved in he took me through everything I needed to know which was great

Wow, full marks – thank you so much for your review!

I am still very new to the apartment and building but they are really nice and of a high standard, and the other residents seem great. However some of the layout choices are less than optimal e.g. the kitchen layout does not have a natural flow or good positioning of plug sockets for appliances etc and the bathrooms have no built in storage. The building managers are great and super quick to help with any queries etc.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The location is great being so close to the tube and the wetlands, as well as good coffee places nearby and a selection of food places.
If there is one thing you would change about your flat or property what would it be:
Better layout of the kitchen, with more plug sockets! Added bathroom storage which is definitely lacking.
Manager Response
Thank you very much for your review!
Very happy here!
We’ve only been here a short while, but it’s been great. I wish there was storage in the bathroom as it ruins the interior trying to find suitable storage furniture – wish there was something under the sink! Also that the kitchen layout had a more thoughtful design when it comes to location of appliances / plug sockets and worktop space. In terms of property management, maybe nice to spruce up the communal areas such as paint chipping, scuff marks, signs falling off but other than that it’s great.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The area is fantastic, and excited to fully experience it once we are out of lockdown. For now, even though close to a main road it’s super peaceful, and travel links are excellent.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Recommendations for things to do / eat in the area.
If there is one thing you would change about your flat or property what would it be:
The storage in the bathroom! And the things outlined above.

Thank you for leaving your home this review! Great feedback re. the local area guide, we will look into this for you. The Fizzy app is a great place to ask your neighbours as well for local recommendations 🙂
Different take on renting!
Building is nicely maintained. The flat itself is cozy. There are just a few amenities – such as bike parking. Building and property management is really good. Our “bobs” are extremely helpful and supported us a few times when we needed most. Being pet-friendly is also a plus.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Good: Close to groceries and local shops/ tube – overground / green areas.
Bad: Limited parking / choice of restaurants
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
It is a very quiet and peaceful place. Lots of greens around. A tad far from the high street, but manageable.
What is the best feature of your home:
It is a sizeable three bedroom where is cozy and comfortable enough for my family.

Thank you so much for taking the time to review your home! We hope to see more restaurants and breweries opening up once the lockdown is lifted!
It is the people of Fizzy that make living here so great and hassle-free
The flat is very spacious and the balcony is great during the summer, but it is the people of Fizzy that make living here so great and hassle-free. Jason and Meena manage the property and are always available to help out when needed (even during the pandemic). Paul from the maintenance team has been awesome at fixing anything that goes wrong, or even just to help put up pictures, coat hooks and mirrors when we first moved in.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Lots of coffee shops in the local area with more opening up. With the Victoria line 2 min walk away, it’s not far to go to get some great restaurants.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
It is so quiet living here – you can barely hear the neighbours or the road.
If there is one thing you would change about your flat or property what would it be:
More wardrobe space would be the only thing I’d improve

Hi Harry, thank you for your review! Hope you continue to enjoy living with us in Fizzy Walthamstow.
Exactly what we wanted
Very secure. Have to get through 3 locked doors to get to the flats. Nice courtyard in the summer. Bobs are always available on email if you need them and are generally quick to respond to anything you need. Very useful that bobs are there for deliveries. Good sized flats.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
breweries and a climbing wall nearby. A few local shops. Great access to takeaways. traffic noise if windows are open but soundproofing is good.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish we had known that the communal area is only open 9-5 and the courtyard does not allow pets
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Building management are quick to respond if an issue is raised.

Thumbs up
Cannot complain about design, flat is spacious, light and still feels homely due to having enough freedom of space for furniture etc.
Noticed a couple minor issues when moving on however our BOB had someone round the next day to fix this which is brilliant service and turnaround!
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Plenty to discover with the local breweries (when they reopen). Larger supermarkets not so close however great transport links/relatively short walk makes up for this.
Street is surprisingly quiet considering not too far from a busy main road so all good. Also great view of the wetlands which makes home working easier
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The app is a great place to ask others in the community for tips one becoming a new tenant
If there is one thing you would change about your flat or property what would it be:
A little more storage space would be great for possessions.
Manager Response
Thank you so much for your review! We are very happy to hear that you are finding the app useful, we too are looking forward to the breweries re-opening!
