Write a Review Upload PhotosGood not excellent
We are very happy with the flat and the building in general. However, the state of the common areas is frankly very concerning for a new building.
The common areas such us stairs, entrance, etc are showing a high level of despair after only 3 months of living here. The property management is not cleaning the place to a high standard as require for the service charge paid.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Good aspect – walking distance to the New Malden high street and a good 15 mins walk to the train station.
Bad aspect- the shops close to the building are not very appealing with the exception of Aldi supermarket. Hopefully the council will revamp the area at some point in the next years.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The whole building complex is not finish yet so the noise is very disturbing from 8 am to 5 pm.
Also I was expecting rules from the management company to maintain the building in good conditions as this affects the reselling price.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Building management not great. As explained in the previous points, the building after only 3 months of living here is not in a good place. Some walls have been badly treated, stairs and entrance not properly clean, lift dirty and was broken for a whole weekend and this only happening in the first 3 months.
I am happy with everything
I am happy with everything. The only bad thing I could say is that the elevator broke already even though it is a new built. However, it has been repaired after a day or two. Customer service is okay as most of the time they respond quickly and there are times that they would ask you to wait for months but overall okay for me. Delays are reasonable and valid. Therems also a common garden area if you want a breath of fresh air but no gym facilities. Overall I am satisfied with customer service. Just no visitor parking space if you didn’t buy parking space.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
The area is really nice, plus the flat design is nice as well. Bus stop is very near, Aldi and Matalan is just a stone away as well. The only bad thing would be the limited parking for visitors I guess.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Nothing really as everything has been discussed to me prior to moving in.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes. They have responded to me however with my balcony issue they told me it will take time. But overall okay for me. I would recommend them and the delays are understandable and reasonable.
Kingston East – a great home!
Building management is quite efficient given rising costs of energy these days. The inner courtyard is near completion and looking much better than expectations. And the sales team (Sinthia and Qasim) is just the most friendly and relatable group of people!

Loving the Kingston East development being right next to an Aldi, within walking distance of all the good things Kingston and New Malden high streets offer! Bus stop right in front of the flat, which is super convenient any time of the day!
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Would have been great to know who will be leasing the commercial spaces in the building
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Always addressed my concerns on a timely basis, including following up after resolution!
