Very good place to live, with minor flaws that do not affect it!

Nov 2024

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

Shops nearby (Tesco) are the same as restaurants. Chemical cleaning, post and pharmacy are also around the corner. Every other aspect is excellent, but the bad fact is the drunk people coming from the pub near the entrance to the building. This is quite scary.

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

That gas, electricity and water need to be sorted ASAP, even before moving in, as it will take a lot of time.

What is the best feature of your home:

I really like how well-insulated this place is. The layout is nice, providing a lot of light for the flat.

Amazing accommodation!

Hatfield Rise, AL10

Nov 2024

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

The area has a load of local amenities that make living here so convenient. There is plenty of parking, both street and gated that make things easy. Aswell as a friendly local community.

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

The only thing I wish I had known before moving in is how difficult it is for delivery couriers to find the address once you set up delivery instructions it is very easy but until then often the delivery drivers are unsure where the flats are.

What is the best feature of your home:

I would say that the best feature of my home is how lovely and luxurious the bathrooms are as well as the fact that the building is so energy and heat efficient. It naturally sits at 20° without needing the heating on through the winter.

Morrisons is next door which is extremely convenient. Other than that, not sure what other shops there are, if any The underground is accessible by 15mins walk which is fine but buses are not frequent and I have no idea which buses are available and where they serve to.

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

The response is phenomenal, taken seriously and swiftly, queries or any concerns raised are addressed with care.

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

Availablity of shops Availablity and details on bus services
