Modern, Well-Maintained, and Convenient Living

Jimmy (Tenant)

Verified Resident

Mar 2025

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

The local area offers a great living environment, with convenient access to a variety of shops, restaurants, and open spaces. Being close to the High Street means there are plenty of amenities within walking distance, making daily life convenient. Transport links are excellent, with the train station and bus stops nearby, providing easy access to other areas. The neighborhood feels safe and secure, with a good community atmosphere. Parking availability is reasonable, and bin collections are reliable. Traffic noise is minimal, making it a pleasant place to live

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

Building management is efficient, with a prompt response to any issues or requests. They are friendly, professional, and ensure that common areas are kept clean and well-organized.

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

There haven’t been any major surprises, but I do slightly regret not choosing an unfurnished apartment. It would have given me more flexibility in setting up the space to my preference.
