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

Lovely location next to the canal, walking distance to shops, pubs, supermarket and train station but set back from busy main road.

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

Very difficult at first when alarms were going off, have not had issues since to report.

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

No access to underground unless you have a car park space, makes it awkward to get the bike in the storage.

Apsley/ Hemel Hempstead is a clean green old town with excellent links to London via 30min overground train to Euston station and M25 nearby, which makes it ideal to work in London without compromising a quality life in the outer skirts. The local town centre has a selection of stores to meet all the basic lifestyle needs ranging from M&S, TK Max, and everything else. There’s a sports centre and a hospital in Hemel with plenty of pubs, cafes and an old town centre. The surrounding areas have plenty of beautiful hikes and walks like Chiltern Hills, Pitstone hill.

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

The development is quick and responsive of any issues we have raised

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

The property came in with all basic furnishing but lacked storage and so we had to built our own customised wardrobes.
