Aviator Drive, London, NW2

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

The local area is generally pleasant and continues to improve day by day, with new facilities and services being added regularly. There is a good range of local shops and essential services, all of acceptable quality and within easy reach. Public transport links are very convenient, with good access to buses and nearby stations, making daily commuting straightforward. The street itself is mostly quiet, bin collections are regular, and there are no significant issues with anti-social behaviour. The only minor inconvenience at present is some noise from nearby construction work, which is temporary and expected to finish as developments are completed.

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

Building management has generally been responsive and professional, acknowledging reported issues and taking action to resolve them, although some matters have taken longer than expected to be fully addressed.

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

One thing I wish I had known before moving in is that some facilities, such as the swimming pool and gym classes, may be closed or cancelled at short notice, which is not always clear during a viewing. I would also advise new neighbours to be aware that occasional smells from the rubbish chute can occur and to report them early, as well as to keep an eye on building updates and notices from management.

It's a lovely place to live which is becoming more lively. The coop next door is very well stocked and is a welcome addition. Fresh bread and pastries from Karma bread and tasty coffee within walking distance is a bonus. Amazing parks for the children and super gatherings organised on a monthly basis, makes living here really easy even with young children. My teenager loves hanging out on the roof terrace with friends and we all make good use of all the amenities including the swimming pool,gym and work space. Transport links into central are excellent.

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

Yes the response is swift and nothing is too much trouble.

The Grove is a lovely communal space which can be used by any of the residents and booked out for special events. We hired it out for our daughter's 9th birthday party and loved it!

really safe area, co op is downstairs which is really handy! Having Brent Cross west 5 mins walk away is also really handy :)

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

Yes, and has fixed them within the same day, very quick responses!

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

I wish we knew what facilities would have been ready for when we were planning to move in.

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

It is clean, secure (we are walking our dog around 6 - 7 AM, and there is always nice security guards in the area and the local park nearby.it’s very pleasant to talk with them, and we feel not alone and secure and safe). It’s only a few stops over a train away from Saint Pancras International, which makes it very convenient commute. We know people who work in local bakery, coffee shop, coffee place, and it feels like friends and family to be around them.

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

They always react tight away on WhatsApp even on weekends and try to promptly solve it! And there were not many issues to be honest

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

To be honest nothing comes to mind. We like our living at the Maple.

I feel like I live on a movie set - everything I need (warm, safe and secure new home, Co-op grocery store) and want (gym, access to public transportation, a few coffee shops, a bakery, and two parks for my dog) are at my doorstep. Looks like more restaurants and stores will be opening soon, but I'm very happy here as it is. Anything added will be a wonderful addition. My move-in was easy with ample loading space. Everyone at the front desk is kind and helpful. I don't have a car, but I've seen the garage and its clean and convenient. Yoga on Wednesday mornings a nice perk at the gym too !

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

Yes - I couldn't figure out a few things in my own in my flat, and received swift and helpful assistance. The move-in correspondence was also very clear and organised.

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

This place works for me - I would recommend prospective residents consider their typical commute if reliant on public transportation.
