Write a Review Upload PhotosVery good communal facilities
Very good communal facilities, areas like the gym, cinema room and co working spaces. I enjoy the development and enjoy the use of the amenities and have gained many friends living in this complex. I often have good discussions with the night team Dashelle & Nathan and they’ve been very helpful throughout my time at Moda

There are many good aspects as we have use of local amenities and shopping centres in the heart of Leeds, there are many restaurants and transport links which is always helpful. We also have a local Sainsbury’s on site
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I feel there is a good community spirit but the development is close to a college so you have kids congregating on steps close to the playhouse
What is the best feature of your home:
Kitchen and appliances and bedroom, very good sized beds and also spacious apartments
Design of the development is absolutely fine
Design of the development is absolutely fine. The courtyard in the middle looks very pretty and there is a lot of greenery around the development which adds a sense of calm.
Facilities are good; bike shed, bins, lift etc are always clean and tidy. When there are issues with the bin room it’s usually residents being lazy and dumping stuff in there that should go to the tip.

Good development
Not great building and property management. Great design and very good looking development. Expensive for the area. Facilities are okay, could be more. Communal areas aren’t kept in the best condition considering the cost of fees. Would still recommend

Great location and close to station
Design and facilities of building is great. Building and property management are fair and provide updates as needed. I would like the parking bay situation sorted though so other drivers don’t park in my parking bay.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Local area seems pretty safe and enough amenities around and very close to the station. Only feedback would just love the local co op store to have more products compared to other co op stores in other areas. The one near my flat is like a corner shop and not so much a grocery store.

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

Nice development with short commute to the centre
The design of the development is good with nice landscaping and streets, undercroft car park and central patio. Property management has room for improvement but good thing is it can and will probably be changed. Overall were unite happy with our property.

The fact that they are building a cemetery/crematory nearby
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Good quality of living
Fairview is a mid-class developer, the design is simple but functional.
The insulation or the apartment is very good, and the balconies are well sized.
They covered the 2-years warranty on a professional way.
The property management is not very efficient on dealing with the issues

Venue Anerley is in a great location. Close to lots of public transport as well as bars and restaurants in Crystal Palace and beyond. The development is friendly and there are lots of like minded people.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I would have liked to have discovered the surrounding areas beyond Anerley and Crystal Palace quicker than I did.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes – whenever we have had any large of small issues, management have responded.
Good overall design and flats finishing to reasonable quality
Design of building is great, and the gardens and landscaping is very high quality. The secure central communal garden is a bonus to having your own balcony and is often used by resident families and people relaxing. This was particularly useful during lockdown. The internal flat features are all a high standard however the external places such as bike storage, bin rooms and corridors all feel very low quality. Many bikes have been stolen due to the flimsy cheap lock/doors that were installed which has led to more secure doors replacing these but increasing our service charge.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Good travel links from Anerley station, however many of the central London train links have been removed recently. Bin collection is good, and immediate development is neat and tidy however residential roads surrounding are often littered and crowded with cars. Parking in the development is good for those with an allocated spot in the locked garage but everyone with outdoor spaces it is a nightmare, people always park in other peoples spaces causing issues. It is very peaceful though due to it being at the end of a road so no passing traffic.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Service charge estimates were more realistic. Deliveries often end up at the wrong place & not to leave bikes in the bike store as they get stolen
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Slowly and it often takes multiple emails to get an outcome. Cleaning service is not good, they only hoover and none of the other surfaces e.g walls skirting etc are cleaned
