Before moving into this development, I wish I had known about the incredible sense of community and the various initiatives that the building management undertakes to enhance resident experiences. While a typical viewing might give you an idea about the physical aspects of the apartment, such as its design, facilities, and cleanliness, it's the intangible qualities that truly make living here special.

What is the best feature of your home:

The best feature of my home is its large, south-facing windows that not only flood the living space with natural light throughout the day but also offer a stunning view of the surrounding landscape. This architectural choice not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of the interior but also significantly contributes to a positive, uplifting atmosphere within the home. The abundance of sunlight not only saves on lighting during the day but also has a profound effect on well-being, making the space feel more open, airy, and welcoming.

I have been residing in Burlington Square for the past 3 years and a half (since 2021), and I think I can fairly put a good judgment of the property and the team for now. First, the team are slow in reported issues as they hardly get back with no consistent follow-up. First year, I had a window incident, which took about 6 months to fix it and it was a high-risk broken entire window from lightening. Also, there is always been the issue of pedestrian walk right outside the property, which I also reported earlier (a year ago). As when you step on the bricks, when it rains you constituently get splashed. These small things, I think add up to the overall image I think about when recommending someone to the property. Somehow could be also demotivating at certain times, as they are the way the management is looking after you as a resident. Also, another bad point I want to mention is the lack of windows in the property, it has caused me allergy, and I think having no window (in my case not even in my room), is a big concern for the health of individuals over the long-term. Apart from this, location is good, and the infrastructure is good enough for property.

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

The lack of windows will cause future health issues for my end.

What is the best feature of your home:

location and view is great! These two things were a priority for me that I did not find in other local properties.

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

Great location, bus round the corner very useful some parking availability but I think the private parking offer is too expensive.

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

What is the best feature of your home:

Layout of the flat is brilliant and the receptionists are great!
