Nice place

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

Great area, close to the shops and pubs and a 20 minute walk into town centre. The only downside is the availability of reasonably priced parking, but can't expect much living close to the city centre!

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

To be honest there hasn’t been any issues, everything has always gone very smoothly - anything you raise with the team gets actioned very quickly and efficiently.

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

Outdoor parking wasn't available when I moved in but I have been added to a waitlist.

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

Spring Wharf is in an excellent location. The shops are just 3 minutes away, and it has easy access to public transportation, including trains and buses.

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

They are very proactive and responsive and always looking for new ideas to improve. They organise events to bring people together and socialise which is great.

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

How quickly the management team responds to any issues. Their willingness to help at any time of the day have been a pleasant surprise. It’s a great addition to know we can rely on them whenever needed.

Spring Wharf, BA2

Dec 2024

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

The location is great, surrounded by shops and restaurants such as Tesco, Lidl, McDonald's, Costa coffee etc. literally next door. The train station and bus stops are not far away, with 15-20 mins walking distance to city centre. Despite of its great location, it is quiet and peaceful. There is also no issue of anti social behaviour at all, a very safe area.

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

Same or next day response with the issues being addressed within 2-3 days latest.

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

How easy it's collecting the parcels with their parcel system in place, I don’t have to worry if I miss the delivery time.

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

Great location right outside of the city centre to avoid traffic, but able to walk across the street and have all the amenities around.

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

Management are really friendly and helpful, quick to respond to emails and deal with maintenance requests promptly.

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

Only thing I wish I’d have known is how much the utilities were going to be.
