We believe the best information about a residential development comes from the people living there. Owners and tenants have a lot of useful information to share with their prospective neighbours, not just on the property itself and its locality, but also on the developer and the building’s management.

The management is super helpful. They always solved our problems in a convenient time such as heating, or any issues at home. I would say we did not have much problem but when we have, they solved it very quickly. There is a concierge in the entrance and people working there are really helpful as well. The building also has a parcel room so you can be sure your parcel is always in a safe place waiting to be taken by you!

The design of the place is beautiful, and the apartments bright and airy with some benefiting from huge industrial windows and high ceilings. Converge service, especially Akin, is 10/10- they’re so accommodating and always bring good vibes. Downsides: the advertised facilities aren’t actually provided! There’s supposed to be weekly cinema nights which haven’t happened for 5 years, and the projector in the shared work space is constantly broken. There aren’t table tennis tables on the roof terrace anymore and we’re due to be replaced years ago but still waiting. They’ve also recently introduced no smoking on the roof terrace despite it being a totally outdoor area, which the majority or residents are unhappy about. But worst of all, the rent is increased every year by a random figure of the owners choice, with everyone in the building being charged individual rates for no apparent reason- which we discovered when we started a resident’s group to discuss the high increases.

Clean and new development, good sound proofing and light. Warm in the winter without much need for heating however heater broke and was stuck over winter and bathroom has some low quality installations, for example toilet bowel low quality and flush prone to breaking/trickling. Building management is impeccable, very friendly and helpful whenever they are needed and quick to respond to any email.

I really love loving here. The space available is second to none in London which makes the extra price worth it l. The landlord and concierge are all really helpful with any issues we have and we feel like we’re genuinely looked after which is rare in lodnon

My flat is really lovely. Both the concierge and the property management are really helpful. They are also so fast to solve the problems. There is a work space on the ground floor and it is great for the people working from home! Luckily we have a cafe at the same place with work space so you can grab your coffee, take your seat and start working comfortably! Also the bakery is worth to try, they are so delicious! I definitely recommend here.
