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

Nothing, simply check everything during your viewing and see the landlord is responsive or not

What is the best feature of your home:

No feature at all, basic simple apartment and nothing special

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

There is a bit of a walk in a pathway to get to the station. Additionally, there are not many options for local shops around. The development is close to a massive roundabout, and crossing is only possible through subways. Parking is pretty expensive and street parking is very limited.

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

The AC bills would be stupidly expensive with crazy fees and kWh price. You have to provide your tenancy agreement to the concierge so they can add you to the building system. That the windows don't open and the ventilation system fails quite often. You have to apply yourself for your pet licence.

What is the best feature of your home:

Facilities and having a concierge desk. The apartment is comfortable.

I’ve lived in this area for nearly 7 years. It has developed a lot over those years and is a great place to live. Plenty of shops around and more coming, good transport connections, great location for most London airports also, it’s in a well lit area so I’ve always felt safe even when getting home late, sports options around, good walks. I really like it here.

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

They are always quick to resolve any issues and inform quickly when there are problems with hot water etc.

For buyers I’d recommend to check on the ground rent situation. There has been a lot of discussion about it but I’m not fully sure about the details.
