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

a few local shops around the area, tram stop near by about a 15 minute walk apart from that not really an accessible area but as a driver it’s ok for me, parking can be challenging as we constantly get people parking all on the side roads blocking entrances to our drive ways at times

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

Any issues I have had m recently they have been resolved and management have been attentive.

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

The lack of storage in the long run is an issue and the quality of the works around the home is poor leading to faster wear and tear

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

Living in this area offers a great balance of convenience and comfort. For those who enjoy the outdoors, there are several parks and open spaces nearby, making it easy to get fresh air or go for a walk. There’s a few range of local shops within reach, covering day-to-day essentials. Transport links are a real positive — buses and trains are frequent and it’s easy to get into the city centre.The street itself is a pleasant place to live. Overall, this is a convenient and friendly area to live in, with good local amenities, decent transport connections, and a street that feels safe and welcoming.

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

Yes. Just like any other building management. We use an app to raise repairs and can track or communicate the status of each one which is good

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

I wish that the living room & kitchen were separate areas & not open planned

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

Some good aspects of living here is the short distance to shops like Tesco and Sainsbury’s. And the distance between the house and the bus station is very short less than a half mile

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

Took them just two days to fix a problem I had complained to them about

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

These young lads who are not killing each other on the streets

Manager response
