A guide to living in North West London

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

The good aspects about living here is that the transport links are very good and there’s buses just on the main road and come very often. The negative aspect is that recently there’s been an increase in antisocial behaviour in the area but the building is safe and there are gates now everywhere.

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

Everything was dealt with in excellent approach and I have not a single complaint. They are helpful.

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

I wish I knew that is was very diverse and accepting and we have neighbours with children and pets and everyone is welcome. So it is a safe environment for everyone.

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

The area is actually great, the building is next to the station and not far from the underground, there are two pubs 2 mins away from the building and a large Sainsbury's round the corner, plenty of small shops for all your needs, a post office, dry cleaners, fish and chips, gym, everything you would need. Bin collection isn't really ab issue the building deals with it, we did have an issue when we first moved in with people just dumping rubbish into the bins area, but Heimstadden have really tried to put in place measures to stop that and fly tipping with a new automatic gate and an array of signs. Parking is fine, I don't have a car but when I am driving for whatever reason there's spaces all over. Not too much anti social behaviour, it's mostly just young people hanging out around the corner shops but they don't actually cause any hassle, could be intimidating if you were younger and alone

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

Yes but it does sometimes take a while for things to be done, we have complained about the loss of parcels

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

We wished we knew that the security would have stayed after moving in

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

The location of this property is truly outstanding. Within just a 5-minute walk, you have access to a variety of amenities, including both premium and affordable grocery stores, a cinema and a gym/spa. Additionally, the proximity to the Jubilee Line (Finchley Road station is literally right at your doorstep!) allows for quick and easy travel throughout London, with most destinations just a 30-minute ride away. Such a central and accessible location is a rare find, as many areas in London usually require compromises.

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

Very swiftly with exceptional care, diligence and professionalism.

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

Nothing major comes to mind as my stay met my initial expectations

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

Very noisy due to the train and the roadworks. It’s also in the middle of nowhere, no shops nearby and the trains are far.

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

They are useless and have every excuse in the world. Tell us to use other apartments showers that multiple people have used and zero urgency with fixing things

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

How terrible the design would be, how bad the noise would be and how useless building management would be
