The parking only gives you one permit per flat. I wasn’t aware of how useful the many storage cupboards in the place would be.

Perfect located flat, close to city centre and plenty of local shops and restaurants around. Directly outside a train station but trains cannot be heard. Plenty of parking spaces available and bin storage. No anti social behaviour around as nice area and no traffic noise

Depending on the problems raised some issues will take longer to resolve. New property manager has made all the difference.

During viewing I was shown a flat however was given another one. The one I initially visited had all utility appliances included washing machine, dryer, oven, fridge and dish washer however the one I was given does not have dish washer and was later told that not all apartments come with everything and it’s the luck of the draw.

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

Parking- after restricting 1 car per flat, lot of availability of parking space. Many options are available for grocery like Sainsbery m&s etc Property location is perfect as train and bus stop are outside out Property. Strongly recommend to stay as I have been staying here for past 12 months and renewed the contract for another 18 months.

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

Slow response for critical issue like both lifts were not functioning.
