Hatfield Rise, AL10

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

Good shops, restaurants and other essentials. Good distance to train station and local buses. The parking isn't great as terrible restrictions have been put in place and we aren't able to apply for permits. Some anti social behaviour due to the pub, but not often.

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

It would have been nice to know that the council were going to implement terrible parking restrictions which have caused a huge inconvenience to the residents with 2 cars.

What is the best feature of your home:

We have 2 bathrooms a balcony and a parking space.

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

It is quite an isolated area at times, there's 2 good restaurants and that's about it. The local pub is great, however on the weekends it does get very noisy when pub goers are leaving. The transport is good! The parking availability and restrictions are awful, the limits are more than the have in central London, this prevents me being able to have guests for longer than 3hours which isn't fair, as when I bought the flat I wasn't aware they were putting these restrictions in place. There can sometimes be anti-social behaviour, which does frighten me at times when I'm walking alone.

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

I wish I had known about the plans to implement extreme parking restrictions.

What is the best feature of your home:

I love that I have two bathrooms and the balcony is fantastic and excellent storage space.

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

Great area to live in with good schools and basic amenities near by the building. Good part is easy access to M25, and A1M

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

Near by park which was not completely developed when we moved in

What is the best feature of your home:

Sun set view from the balcony is the great feature

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

Good range of shops all very convenient. Ample parking, good public and road transport links. Ample bin storage.

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

Nothing actually, I had an excellent experience throughout.

What is the best feature of your home:

Spacious modern design. Very nice quality fixtures and fittings.

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

Shops nearby (Tesco) are the same as restaurants. Chemical cleaning, post and pharmacy are also around the corner. Every other aspect is excellent, but the bad fact is the drunk people coming from the pub near the entrance to the building. This is quite scary.

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

That gas, electricity and water need to be sorted ASAP, even before moving in, as it will take a lot of time.

What is the best feature of your home:

I really like how well-insulated this place is. The layout is nice, providing a lot of light for the flat.
