This development is at the heart of the Uxbridge town centre and is a stone throw away from Metropolitan/Picadilly lines and Uxbridge bus station. It's vibrant at all times especially on the weekend with great eat-out places and bars. It's noisy but when I go into my apartment, the window type shuts out all the noise which is just divine. It's a great choice especially if you're single because most apartments here are studios. Downside only is that it does not come with parking and trying to find parking is a real hustle because it's accessible but very expensive.

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

There is an app for all maintenance issues. When a problem should arise, the app is where these problems are reported. Response is usually within 23 hours with timely solutions.

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

Security is important and it is essential feel safe and know who to go to if a safety issue should arise. This is primarily due to some missing parcels.

Mercantile House is located in the middle of the center with all major shops and services near by. Less than 1' walking distance from the underground and bus station. Bin collection on weekly days and Saturday is early! No parking available, poor Amazon delivery service! Excellent location though.

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

There is a ticket system for snags in place but unfortunately it takes ages before something is done! Until today's date, 3 weeks after moving in nothing has been done about it yet.

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

I was told there would be a new management company in charge but the service I have received since I moved in is 0,00.
