Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Great location near the city centre - co working space, a shop and bar/restaurant all within the complex. Parking options could maybe be better but free short term parking is available. Close to train stations and trams but I mostly walk to places as it’s most convenient
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes always quick to respond - there was one issue around payments but they resolved their end very quickly.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Maybe that there wasn’t a concierge in the building for post - but this has since been resolved and the post situation is much better but still is in a separate building

Thank you so much for your detailed review! We’re thrilled to hear that you’re enjoying your modern 2-bedroom flat and that the cleanliness of the building, as well as the friendly cleaner, have made a positive impact. It’s great to know that the secure parking and the building’s quick-response management have contributed to your overall satisfaction. We're glad to hear you think the post situation has improved, though we understand having it in a separate building can still be an inconvenience at times, unfortunately, we weren’t able to have a parcel room in each of our 6 buildings. We truly value your feedback, and we're happy to hear that any issues you’ve raised have been promptly addressed. Thank you for your kind words and for recommending us. We're committed to continuing to provide a great living experience!

We have raised 3 issues, all of which were investigated quickly.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Good: Location and insulation Bad: Very expensive for what it's worth No perks with the price, majority of places around offer free gym membership No parking spot. 2 years waiting!!!!!
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes they have always commented back and fixed the issues but the issue keeps coming back
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
2 years wait for a parking space, if you're going to build a block of flats ensure each flat has at least one spot each?

Hi Emily Thank you for taking the time to share your honest feedback with us. We're glad to hear that you've found our location and insulation to be positive aspects, and that our team has been responsive in addressing any issues you’ve raised. Whilst we do not have a gym here, however, we do offer free fitness classes for Residents at M3 Perform, and we now have monthly yoga classes available, there is also a JD Gym at the retail park just a across the road. I am sorry to hear about the wait for parking, please can you email me on newmakeryards@getliving.com and I will look into this for you and your other concerns raised in your review, such as Pet free options as we do have pet free buildings. Thank you again for your recommendation, and for being part of our community. We're always here if you need anything!

Perfect and close to the city

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
There a coffee shop, bar and co-op on site which is a great convenience as well as parking. Location to public transport is ok, with a 10-15 min walk to a train/tram stop. Sometimes there’s quite a bit of noice late night/early morning at the weekends but as expected
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes they’ve responded within a day or even on the day itself
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I’d had known the location in terms of distance to trains and tram stops as well as the noise of developments close by

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Such a good location to be out of the city chaos but still close enough to enjoy the bars etc in the city. A really convenient location as the bus is 2 seconds away to link us to the city centre.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
I had an issue with a lightbulb in my first few days and it was fixed instantly and replaced by the staff.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish i’d known there was a lack of cupboard space in the kitchen but that could be my own fault for not checking.
