High end design, interior is quite stylish and good finishing. Management is top value and really great people who take your side and act on your behalf rather than against you as is the case in most properties.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The flats here are high end and stylish, and a single minute from the station. I get to Central London in under 30 minutes, to Oxford Circus in 17, Kings Cross in 12 minutes! If there is one thing we love about this property its the location. Far enough to be quiet and green (near the wetlands) and close enough to be prime location. And what we love more is the service provided by Fizzy staff whereby you always know something is asking for your rights, someone is always making sure you get things repaired that you ask for such as an appliance breaking down, and since the property is relatively brand new (2018 build!) that hardly ever happens anyway. Hotel service and we feel privileged to be one of the longest residing tenants here as we were one of the first to move in.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
We have never had a problem last longer than a couple of days at most no matter how serious of a technical problem. Fizzy have always come through.

You should live here.
Apartments are very spaciously designed with good storage and lots of light in all rooms. Concierge/ work from home area with tea and coffee. Communal garden with events through the summer. Building is managed well with good communication on what’s going on in the building, local area etc. Parcel delivery to your doorstep is also a nice touch.
Any issues in the flat are quickly resolved with an in house repair service.
It’s a lovely friendly atmosphere throughout the building and pet friendly to boot!
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
A co-op and a Tesco nearby for those little bits you’ve forgotten. A couple brewerys close by – and the tube is about a two minute walk with central London only 20mins by Victoria line! Perfect location.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes, any repairs needed are attended to quickly!

FriendlyBest Fizzy Flats
We live in a 2 bedroom flat, and the sizes of the bedrooms are nice,very spacious. One very good thing is that you get 2 bathrooms which is the best thing i would say,and belive me what I’m saying i used to live in a shared house it is a nightmare to share the bathroom with someone else other than your partner. The only thing i dont like,we consider the only minus thing is that they are building new blocks, and from around 8 ish in the morning up until it gets dark you get to see builders just right looking at you,it’s a saying, and you get all the noise. Our flat is facing to the buildings in construction. Other than that every thing is ok, the flats are warm in the winter, and in the summer when we had high temperatures we cooped with a fan as everyone else. You have a washing machine and a tumbler dryer which is very handy in the winter,and a dishwasher and let me say it it’s a life saver! Not many properties have a dishwasher so this is a big plus to us as we just save more time,because you all know we live in London and time is money and important. About neighbours i have yo say that everyone we’ve meet were friendly and nice, but sometimes the bloc is so quiet that i have the impression we live alone in the building. Too quiet,no noise! I know the rent seems to pricey for some people but you have to think at your priorities, and facilities but i would definitely say this is the best place to live in.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
I love the fact that the flats are pet friendly,and even though we don’t have a pet yet,hope in the near future,i get to see so manny doggies and i can pet them, if the owners allows us. It is a lovely neighbourhood area, it is quiet and you are very close to tube station/victoria line,in a good day it takes me 35 min to get to liverpool street station where i work,overground station to Barking and you have 4 buss options 123,230,158 and W11. You have Tesco at 7 min walk, and a Coop right as you go out the building which is very handy when you need something that your missing in the house. I used to live in the area before and i got to see how they were building and i and my husband we said we are gonna move in there,because it’s one of the best place in the area. If you love Turkish food there is a restaurant right cross the street, and few more coffeehouses.

Review of property + problems faced
The design and management of the property is fairly good with the management responding quickly to solve problems of the tenants however, the facilities such as the rubbish pickups and rubbish bins are always delayed as there are tenant who simply throw their rubbish which causes problems for the rest of the tenants. Maybe this could be fixed by guiding tenants on how to sort their rubbish befoee they move in and install a fine if caught simply throwing the rubbish?
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
This area is easily accessible by tube which is only a 3min walk from the area. There’s also a fairly decent amount of shops to eat though it’s a 10mins plus walk away from the area.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Try to sort out the council taxes and also telling the management to sort the letters from previous tenants as they will fill up your mailbox pretty fast and it gets in the way of your own mails
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The repairs for my homes lighting was fixed quite fast and they’re mostly in the office during weekdays, however it could be helpful if they were also there during the weekends for us to access the common area as well as to respond to some of us when we’re passing through.

My flat is nice but the response time for repairs or any action for the overall building are poor I.e. damage in communal areas, mess/spills around the buildings, broken lift, etc. And the rubbish bins are always an issue- overflowing, not emptied on time, in wrong place, etc.
I think some of the other Fizzy properties may have better facilities.
On the positive, the location is extremely convenient for commuters; flats are new; and pets are welcome.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Not many local shops but everything is a bus ride or tube stop away. Probably will be more in the area in the future because there is a quite bit of development and construction.

I couldn’t make a better choice!!!
I really like the design of my flat, modern minimalist and very well ergonomic. I used to leave in a 2 bedroom apartment and I managed to fit my staff in this flat (one bedroom). Amazing!!! The electrical utilities are very good and easy to use. Building management or our Bobs are very helpful.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Ideal location closed to Blackhorse Station, only one stop away from Walthamstow Mall, Empire Cinema, Walthamstow village, very close to IKEA. Co-OP is nearby and it’s very convenient for anything that you may need.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes always responded on time!!! Caring and helpful

Thank you for your kind words! We hope you continue to enjoy renting in Fizzy Walthamstow.
Amazing place with great management
We moved into Fizzy Walthamstow recently and so far we have been really impressed by this place. It has been difficult to move back to central after living in the South-West for a number of years, yet Fizzy is reasonably priced for what you get with great location, transport link and efficient and friendly management team.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Likes – great management, great flats, great transport link (20 minutes to oxford Street!). Supermarket right next door
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I was slightly worried about the busy road outside, as our flat faces the main road. So far we are very surprised by how good the double glazing windows are, and absolutely no trouble sleeping at all.
If there is one thing you would change about your flat or property what would it be:
The depth of the bathtub, maybe. But that’s just personal preference!

Thank you Bosco for your review! We are glad that the move has been smooth, we hope you continue to enjoy renting with us.
Excellent choice
Excellent design very ergonomic modern flat. The only that I don’t like is the building constructing across and I can’t see the lakes. Is quite expensive the council taxes as is property B taxed but is worth it.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Amazing and well equipped apartments brand new with very helpful staff! Great and convenient location. Only few minutes away from tube station. I couldn’t make any better choice.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Nothing particular I am really happy with my choice
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes with great attention and concern. And almost immediate solution

WOW – Thank you for your kind review. We are happy to hear you are enjoying living in Walthamstow!
My life in Walthamstow
I have been living in this development for 18 months now. I really enjoy living here. The house itself is a typical new build and nicely decorated and very modern with all the latest fixtures and fittings. The building is very clean and the other people in the building seem very nice.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
I particularly enjoy the businesses downstairs which include Empire Cinema and Nandos. In addition, I like living so close to the tube station, only a 1 minute walk. I don’t like the amount of undesirable people the tube station attracts.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The amount of noise there is at night. There’s often screaming and shouting until the early hours.

Thanks for your lovely review Oliver! We are so happy that you are enjoying living here and we agree the Empire Cinema is great.
The design of the flat could be better
Very good facilities, everything runs very good. The flat came unfurnished. The gate was broken a while ago but it was promptly fixed. I have a big balcony. The hallway is a bit strange to be honest. It has an L shape , you feel as if the space has been wasted. The bath ia a bit shallow, I wish it was deeper.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
It is an up and coming area and you know there will be things happening here soon. Close to the tube. The Walthamstow high street is nice as well.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
A lot of flies and spiders flying in the flat
