We believe the best information about a residential development comes from the people living there. Owners and tenants have a lot of useful information to share with their prospective neighbours, not just on the property itself and its locality, but also on the developer and the building’s management.

Building is well designed and has a decent concierge service. On the downside, the property management is generally useless. Slow to fix anything and impossible to get on the phone. Tenents meetings are few and far between and more like a comedy night than anything productive. Some nice people live in the building. There is a Facebook group for tenants to discuss building matters and most are friendly and helpful. Unfortunately there are also few lazy residents who can’t be bothered to separate the recycling from the general waste in the bin store, in some cases just chucking it in the room and walking away. Also if you value your bicycle, don’t leave it in the bike shed. It’s constantly being broken into and stripped out. Keep it safely on your balcony.

It’s owned by Peabody, so you have an effective charity managing the property. Flats are well designed and all have some outdoor space. Price is still reasonable and you can get a good rental yield. I don’t think that all the facilities (gym, roof gardens) are needed by an average person living there though.

Really good quality building , well taken care after. Great design and safety Management company proven to be great so far (been here for 7 months) Slightly slow but in an acceptable manner prioritising important requests. Great meetings for taking actions on every topic, and newsletter to inform tenants about everything! The gym could be a bit better with some dumbbells, or/and other weights. Though it’s great so far! Loads of nice green areas! The big doors in windy areas might need redesign probably to avoid so much maintenance

The development is kept clean and tidy and has an excellent concierge service. There are residents meetings held every now and then. Residents communicate through a handy Facebook group and seem a friendly, helpful bunch. Most residents are pleasant to talk to, and mostly keep to themselves. No nosey parkers or gossip mongers. The building is well designed well lit.

I have lived on the Pembury circus development since it was built and have thoroughly enjoyed my time here. Whilst everything isn't always perfect and Peabody take some managing I think we are generally quite lucky with how the development is managed in comparison to many in London. The development has its own gym alongside a yoga studio, Coop and nursery which are other commercial premises built in. There is a small post office directly opposite and great local pub the Pembury Tavern on the corner which is supported by its own brewery also within walking distance. Great pizzas, pints and sunday roasts can be found here. The building is very secure with people only able to access each floor, the lifts and stairwells with the fob systems that also opens the main door. The concierge service is also located by the front door offering lots of great services including taking in parcels.
