St William’s Court, N1

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

Fantastic and numerous transport links - Eurostar, National Trains, Thameslink, Overground, Tube and buses. Cycle route have popped up in recent years too. The Bingfield Park directly in front of the building is soon to be redeveloped (Jan 2023) raising the standard and giving residents more amenities. You are close to the shops, bars and restaurants of Coal Drops & Granary Square and there are local family run gems such as the Sunflower Bakery that you can support nearby. Gifford Street is a cul de sac so little traffic. Excellent open spaces - so well maintained Islington Parks and of course the pedestrianised Granary Square area. An area that has had a huge transformation making it fascinating to visit and explore with more developments to come.

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

Yes - very responsive. The Concierge is available to all residents to help with issues 24/7 - provides a great service in a professional and courteous way. Big plus for the building.

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

Make sure you are given a full tour so that you can really understand all the beneficial facilities - a recent addition is a residents library for sharing and swapping books!! Also there is now a friendly building cat!

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

The fact that it is a development between kings cross and callly makes it’s a slightly affordable place to rent. Love the walk to the station every morning. Local shops are good. Some people find the walk longer but 15 mins is okay for me. The only down side is gangs from the council estate next to the development.

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

The station is the surroundings due to the council estate next to the development.

Please share one thing (or more) which you would change about your development:

I would prefer to have windows in my flat. I have to open the balcony for some fresh air which is not the most convenient and safe option during summer nights.

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

The area is blooming with a lot of new buildings being built.
