Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
This is a prime location for anyone who works in the city. There are plenty of shopping locations as well as restaurants and bars in the surrounding area. There are travel links near-by which makes getting around the city/ in and out of the city very easy. Me and my partner also work very close by which allows for a very convenient work/social life balance.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Certain free to use facilities we were told about are not currently in use (such as the ice machine). We believe this is due to a small portion of the property currently being occupied but it was a slight disappointment to see it out of use during the summer.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
the area is good and it is close to to shops like Asda and shops downstairs. The people in the area are friendly and the area is clean. Only bad is that the parking is limited but again they have alternatively parking a short walk away
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Whenever you need something fix you send an email and it’s responded to very quickly!
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The train station is about a 20 mins walk away from the apartment but there is good bus links.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Overall speaking, I am very satisfied of my apartment and the service team of the building. The location is very convenient. Local groceries, fresh market , library, parks and public transportation are all within walking distance. The design of the building and apartments are all great. Parking for cars and bikes is secured and convenient.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
They are very responsive and have passion to provide a better living service.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I didn't know some public function room such as cinema and public kitchen are charged. When I was toured of the building, they didn't mention the details. So I was a bit disappointed to find it's actually not free to use for tenants. Most tenants are young people. It's good to know who are your news neighbors before you move it.

Finest of brutalist architecture but needs some work on fostering a sense of community.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Location: Withing walking distance to DLR, Elizabeth Line and various buses. Local amenities: Area undergoing gentrification. Pizza Room is great. Chrisp St Market is great for produce. Unfortunately there's some rubbish around the area and unpleasantness such as vape cartridges and fried chicken bags but it is not so bad.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes, this has improved greatly. I had significant number of problems when I moved in but most of these were resolved after much follow up on my part.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The CBRE guy was not quite truthful about certain things like the the social club downstairs.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
I have been living in this area for 2 years now so when the development started advertising, it was a no brainer to put the deposit down and move in to Balfron Tower as I had never once felt unsafe walking home late at night by myself in this area.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The staff are very helpful with getting things resolved though maintenance could be slow at times
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
There are alternatives commute- buses to stratford, Canary Wharf and close to a couple DLR stations.
