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.

Don’t believe what shared ownership buyers say - they want to protect their investment value. This is a badly designed estate - no consideration for quality of life. Zero facilities, no tenants assoc, no community room. Negligent & zero management

But overall the block of Saxon Court itself has been year on year a disappointment down to non existent management. The only time I heard from them was recently offering my family with disabilities support but this was cruelly withdrawn with no explanation after a very humiliating and confusing conversation whereby I was asked how grateful I was going to be. My side of the block houses majority of families with disabilities. Yet we were given no choice or compensation for the unprecedented dust, noise, lack of privacy from surrounding monolithic building developments. Since moving in the area has become overdeveloped with no thoughts to the mental and medical health impact on inhabitants. I feel our vulnerability has been taken advantage of. If you complain then the landlords respond by withdrawing all communications even when the building is in a state of extreme dilapidation from building faults left by Coriolian the original constructors. I’ve known people here developed health conditions but there was no investigation or visible attempts to meaningful help or manage families or the property. It’s shocking that in this day and age so little regard is given to human rights. Less shocking that under a Conservative and corporate government - money comes before everything and anyone else. Humans were not supposed to exist under these conditions. But it’s hard to be heard when your own landlord won’t even fix my child’s bedroom window . To top it all there is a night club that means anti social behaviour and load crowds up and down York Way in the night but if you try to complain you are silenced. I’m guessing the trade brings money into the area in whatever way it chooses.

Excellent Morden buildings. The design fit well with Morden standards. In terms of Property management, I think it would be good for Housing Management Teams to constantly check with residents on current needs and give appropriate advice in terms of new legislation.

Designed by the architects Maccreanor Lavington along with adjacent Fenman House and Roseberry Mansions, this building is in an amazing Kings Cross Location near Coal Drops Yard and a huge Waitrose with a weekend Canopy Market. I love that the flats have great views, for the most part and really decent sized rooms.
