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

Kingston is fab, so many parks, shops & restaurants. You are a short walk from New Malden high street and a 30 min walk from Kingston. The flat itself is 5 mins from a big nature reserve and right opposite Aldi.

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

The walk to the station has a level crossing in the way!

What is the best feature of your home:

The layout of the flat - it’s a great use of the space, feels much bigger than the square footage.

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

There aren’t any local bars or restaurants unless you walk to the main highstreet, however this does make the estate quiet. Good transport links into central. Parking has been a bit of a nightmare where people park where they want despite being told when purchasing the properties no street parking. Also, bins regularly don’t get collected due to naive residents and it’s residents that have taken action against other residents to try and stop extra charges been applied not the management company.

Be prepared to be cold in winter unless you are okay with spending lots of money on heating.

What is the best feature of your home:

The amount of nature light from the windows, which ultimately gives the best views surrounding the property, especially the terrace over looking North West London.

What is the best feature of your home:

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

The area has a bit of everything while maintaining a local vibe. It counts with all essential services such as different banks, a range of small and large (albeit further away) supermarkets, green areas and places of worship for different faiths. Transport to central London is really good with the Elizabeth line and the possibility of accessing Heathrow affordably with a local bus is a massive plus for someone who travels often. The Great Western Railway also has great connections to the west of England and Wales. The street can be a bit noisy due to speeding cars.

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

The big roads, avenues and warehouses in the nearby area can feel somehow inhospitable, particularly for those of us who prefer to move around walking. It takes some time to find nice areas to walk around or share with the community.

What is the best feature of your home:

The good transport links paired with the prices and sense of a local community. The new looks and finishing also contribute a fair deal to a pleasant living experience.
