You'll also find plenty of open space, including Willen Lake. For commuters, MK Central station is a brief walk away, perfect for grabbing a coffee before your journey. What more could you ask for?

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

A very convenient location with a good range of bars, restaurants, cafés and a large supermarket on the doorstep. Very accessible by foot to the train station, with multiple trains going to London and across the country. Having the shopping centre close by is also very handy which has a wide variety of shops and restaurants. The downside is the lack of parking availability in the building, otherwise you have to park your car quite far away in the council's residential parking bays. Occasionally there is some traffic noise from the road outside and at the weekends with people going out to drink and eat.

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

They have always been quick to respond and fix any maintenance issues.

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

None that I can think of, the building accommodates a lot of things.

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

There are great local shops and restaurants in the area. Various bus services are close to the building. There is parking both in the underground floor and outside the building. Excellent.

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

The management staff Mustafa and Natalie are present to respond to problems or issues very quickly. Perfect.

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

I wish I had known that all the utilities, such as gas, electricity, and water, would be set up by the management staff and that I wouldn't need to do anything regarding this before my arrival.
