No.26, CR0

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

It's Croydon, not the Beverly Hills of South London, and shops have closed down but thats the council and not No26. Nice restaurants opening at times but stores are closing at the same rate.

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

They have responded promptly if a request comes through via the building portal or emails.

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

The Utilisation issue has been ongoing, if its miscommunication from the billing company or N26, this can cause frustration with estimated bills instead of actual usage.

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

Very good location that we are in offering several options for food and drink within a close proximity. Generally no problems on the street, constant development in surrounding areas does mean there are building works constantly

If you're looking at No. 26, you're buying into a lifestyle of pure, unapologetic convenience. I'll cut to the chase—this place is practically built into East Croydon station. 1. The Proximity is Life-Changing Forget "proximity"—you can get from the building lobby to the London-bound platforms in about 120 seconds if you walk fast. My commute to London Bridge is 15 minutes, start to finish. If you travel for work, Gatwick is 15 minutes away, which is a game-changer. You don't just live near transport; the building is the transport hub. The Super-Pro: That SL7 Superloop bus stop on Dingwall Road is a hidden gem. You can jump on a rapid bus to Heathrow without messing around with the tubes. 2. High-Spec, High-Rise Perks The apartments themselves are solid. The floor-to-ceiling windows are a non-negotiable feature; they make the compact flats feel airy, and the views from the higher levels are genuinely spectacular, especially at sunrise. The Conran furnishings are stylish and save you the hassle of moving bulky furniture. Amenity MVP: The rooftop terraces are where the value truly kicks in. When the weather's good, having a 23rd-floor view while having a drink is amazing. The communal co-working space is a huge help if you WFH, stopping you from getting cabin fever in your studio or one-bed. 3. Management and Vibe The on-site team (concierge/management) is the heartbeat of No. 26. They actually know your name, they accept all your Amazon parcels (a lifesaver), and they run a decent number of events, which helps stop the building from feeling like a sterile high-rise. Maintenance issues are usually fixed within a day or two. The Local Scene: You're not just near the high street; you're right next to BOXPARK, which is great for spontaneous food and drinks. The new bar, Trickle, is right on Dingwall Road and is a popular after-work spot.

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

No26 is superbly located with East Croydon station 2mins away and a great mix of local coffee shops, restaurants, gyms and supermarkets all within walking distance, plus Park Hill is nearby if you like green spaces. Transport links are excellent, making commuting easy and ability to park your car is great too.
