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

Insights beyond the ordinary viewing are invaluable. While this property has its merits, like its convenience, noise levels should be considered, particularly near McDonald's. Potential residents should be aware of this aspect. Otherwise, it's a decent place, but noise-sensitive individuals may want to take note.

Very good area in terms of facilities, close to the train station. The motorway is also just a few minutes drive.

We had an issue with a leak and the management responded on time.

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:

Super close to train station, McDonald’s opposite, walking distance to shopping centre. Generally a great location. However no free parking for guests :(

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

Quickly and without any fuss. The building management is quite helpful

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

Depending on where your flat is, the main road is nearby and there’s often blaring ambulances passing by. Not bad if you’re a deep sleeper like me

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

Excellent transport links with buses and trains from Stockport station, great public transport and driving link to Manchester airport, development is very close to a variety of shops. Unfortunately, parking in the development is limited and while multistory third party parking is available, it is more expensive. Traffic noise from Wellington Road is also noticable.

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

Management generally responds appropriately although occasionally responses could be faster.

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

We wish we'd known how hot the flat would get in the summer. The rooms are very generously sized but because of this, they tend to get quite dark as while the windows are very large, they are located at the end of the long rooms.
