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

It's a beautiful setting that has a good community feeling to it. We were blessed to to new home that no one has stayed in was cleaned and very nice size room with a huge garden. There's nice shopping centre just short distance as well as schools and doctor surgery also.

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

I'm going to let them know there few issues like patio doors was not opening and garden door was not shutting and I'm sure they will help us quickly.

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

Family oriental. Beautiful area. Lake near by good place for dog walkers School under your nose literally.

Nice but need further work

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

The neighborhood is nice. But since it’s a newly developed area it needs Countryside to support more as the facilities are not ready.

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

It’s quite slow. I’ve come in for two months but the radiator still hasn’t been fixed.

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

Check the facilities inside the home as there was no preview before move in

Manager response

Hi Matthew, Thank you for your valuable and balanced feedback. We're sorry that there has been a delay to some of the completion of facilities on-site. As this is a build to rent development, inevitably we do lease up our properties whilst wider construction works are being completed. We can also confirm that this particular development has faced some delays to the build process which has unfortunately had a knock-on effect but we're pleased to confirm everything is back on track now and Countryside are making good progress. We'd like to investigate your issue with your radiator to ensure that the team have picked this up correctly. As we are unable to identify you based on the information available to us via your review, could we ask that you pop an email to maintenance@simplelifehomes.com and the team will check up on this item for you.

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

It is very close to work and shopping areas like the Trafford Centre, there is enough parking for us and local supermarkets within a 20 minute commute by car

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

Not the best our washing machine was broken from when we moved in and stop hasn’t been fixed

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

I wish I had more details on who the water bills were with and how to use the alarm. Never got a welcome pack or bag

Manager response

Hi Rohan, Thank you for your honest and valuable feedback. We're pleased to hear that you are happy with your home and that you would recommend Simple Life, however, ew note that you didn't receive a welcome pack, which you should have done. Also, all manuals and information regarding utilities etc is available within the My Simple Life mobile app. Your washing machine should get fixed within a 30 day period. I will pass this review on to the maintenance team and hopefully they will be able to identify you based on the info given in your review - I will get them to check the timeline of your repair and also request that they get a welcome pack out to you.

Comfortable Living with a Few Drawbacks

Ahmed (Tenant)

Verified Resident

Simple Life at Millbank Lock, M31

Dec 2024

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

Good Aspects: The neighbourhood is quiet and peaceful, making it an ideal place for families or those seeking a calm environment. Bad Aspects: It has fair connectivity, with public transport links that make commuting a bit challenging. There is a lack of recreational facilities like cinemas or large shopping centers, which means traveling to neighboring towns for entertainment.

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

The building management has been responsive and quick to act, addressing issues efficiently and ensuring clear communication.

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

I wish I had known more about the challenges with public transport.

Manager response

Thank you for your excellent review Ahmed!
