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

The Gessner is just a 2 minute walk from Tottenham Hale station which will get you to Victoria within 15 minutes or so, it's a great location. It is also close to Walthamstow Wetlands which is great for going for walks, especially in the summer!

Nothing to say here, it has been great. You will love the space and area. There are also free tennis courts just behind the corner in the park.

The local area offers a great mix of shops, restaurants, and bars, with a variety of options to suit different tastes. You’ll find everything from casual cafes to more upscale dining experiences. The selection of local shops is well-rounded, covering essentials, boutiques, and some independent stores. The open spaces are plentiful, with parks and green areas providing a nice escape from the urban buzz. Transport links are generally good, with bus and train stations nearby, making it easy to get around. However, during rush hours, there can be delays, and parking near public transport hubs can be competitive. Living on the street is generally quiet, but there are occasional issues with parking availability, especially on weekends. Bin collections are timely, and local authorities seem to keep the area well-maintained. Traffic noise can be noticeable at certain times of day, and there have been some reports of minor anti-social behaviour, though it’s not a major issue. Overall, it’s a convenient and pleasant place to live, with a few typical urban challenges.
