Irwell Riverside, M3

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

I dislike that there's too many apartments being built which are to high. This is blocking out the light to our houses

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

The actual houses built and lovely. I just think there's too many high rises apartments and flats

What is the best feature of your home:

Design of the house is lovely. Lovely and spacious.

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

The houses are very well located, close to the city centre & just a little stroll from Victoria station. All amenities are close by. Further regeneration of the area must be carried on to enhance the area.

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

I wish we were told about the changes of the flat development at the end of our street.

What is the best feature of your home:

The best features of the houses are the space, the garden and the location.

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

It's great being able to walk into town in a few minutes whilst still being able to sit out in the garden on a sunny day. The bars/restaurants and shops are all so close and if you fancy some open space the meadow and Peel Park are only a 10 minute walk away.

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

It would have been nice to have Internet connections already fully set up as it took several months to get the Internet installed.

Please share one thing (or more) which you would change about your development:

I would have air con installed as the top floor gets incredibly hot in summer.

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

Great access to city without being right in the centre

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

Wifi boosters are firmly needed, and you need to be on the front foot with the landlords

What is the best feature of your home:

The size of the house, including garden and high ceilings

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

It’s a great place to live! It’s a 10 minute walk to the city center, close to great road links, and pretty much any amenity you can think of is just a stones throw away! To have a house so close to the city is amazing!

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

On a whole the building management are friendly and helpful. But as mentioned there has been times where communication has been poor and waited a prolonged period of time for an answer.

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

We love living here, and the sense of community is amazing, we didn’t anticipate having such a great community around us. The heating panels aren’t particularly great, and in the winter months the house is incredibly cold, even with the heaters on.
