Well-located complex in Highbury

Decent complex close to the station. Fairly expensive but that's what you get for convenience. Located close to Highbury Fields so there's some greenery to frolic in. Some decent restaurants and cafes around. It's definitely more expensive than south of the river though.

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

A little grungy near the courthouse. Some interesting characters floating around.

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

The hot water fails regularly and the doorbell that calls your phone is a right pain!

What is the best feature of your home:

Big doors in the bedroom and living room to let in some fresh air.

I dislike about this area that the council tax here is one of the highest in the area. The crime in the area is heard of although I have not experienced it. Just sometimes feel unsafe. I am very happy with the room sizes and design. Insulation is great

I like about this area that it is close to parks and cafes

The building management has responded very well to issues raised. Great mailing system

There is nothing that I wish I knew before moving in here apart from difficulty from travelling fro stansted to here from airport
