Vantage Point, N19

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

Local area is great. Being so close to Hampstead Heath is a particularly wonderful benefit. Super well connected being right above the tube.

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

I had very few things go wrong but anything that did was fixed incredibly quickly!

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

I already knew the area well so there wasn’t much I didn’t know before moving in!

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

Archway is a great place to live, especially if you're new to the city! Right downstairs you have at LEAST 4-6 grocery stores within a 1-2 minute walk, plenty of cafes and restaurants, and access to the Northern line and a plethora of buses to get wherever you need to go! Sometimes the plaze can be a little noisy and rowdy on occasion, but the windows on the building shut out all the noise.

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

After submitting any maintenance request in the online portal, I usually get service within 1-2 days. And for any other needs, the residents team is quite responsive via email.

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

Be prepared to get creative with your plan for storage and wait for the elevator to the basement to take the trash out. But you really will love living here!

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

Good: Location, location, location! Everything you need is just downstairs - lots of supermarkets and shops of all kind. No need to travel for your shopping. Bad: Located on the main junction and also near the Whittington hospital, so lots of dust and noise, especially from ambulances, is coming into the flat.

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

Maintenance is good. All of our requests have been attended.

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

I'm the oldest tenant in the building, already living here for about 8 years. No regrets, apart from the disappointment of the way they bump up the prices.

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

Great location, right by the tube. M&S, sainsbury and co-op few steps away. Hamstead heath is only 20 minutes walking distance which makes for a great walks on the weekend

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

Yes, had many issues with appliances and most were resolved within a reasonable time.

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

Relatively cheap appliances, weird MVHR system means range hood is almost non-existent.

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

Vantage Point has as one of its main perk the fact that it is literally standing on top of Archway tube station. The neighboorhood offers a wide range of groceries shops, a couple pubs and all services you may need (barber, laundry etc..).

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

Luckily, I only had few issues with the flat; but any time I needed something the residents-team has been available and helpful.

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

When I moved in, the only thing I haven't planned was the absence of pillows, but surely someone more prepared would have thought about it. There is a parking space for bicycles and cars, but a motorbike will be treated as a car, same price and same random spaces, with no possibility to lock it to something.
