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

In general the location is very good. i would prefer to live a bit further out of the city centre, in all honestly but the overall offerings of Candleriggs made living here our best option. Everything is very close: shops, restaurants, bars. Public transport is very accessible. It can be very noisy at times but that is to be expected. There is also a huge variety of nearby parking.

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

I have complained a few times, but I think this was mostly on a Candleriggs level, not a building management level so I can't really say.

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

the main thing I think is I wish they were a bit more transparent. For example the way the maintenance is advertised. I also wish that I had known about the flooring works. They seem highly unecesary in the short period of time I have lived here it has had to happen twice. (This building is also very new).

Having lived at Hove Gardens for some time now, I can confidently say it’s one of the best places to live in the in the city. A Team That Truly Cares: The Heart of Hove Gardens Beyond the modern design and the great location, what truly defines the experience of living at Hove Gardens is the front office team. They don’t just manage a building; they look after the people inside it. I am particularly fond of the team, and I have to give a special mention to Irish Mike. He has been an incredible presence since my husband and I first moved in. Mike’s professionalism and warmth made us feel at home from day one, but his kindness went far beyond his job description during the most difficult time of my life. After my husband passed away, Mike’s support is unwavering. In a world where property management can often feel corporate and detached, his genuine compassion and care have been a huge source of comfort to me. Knowing that there are people like him at the front desk makes this building feel like a true sanctuary. It’s rare to find a management team that treats residents with such humanity and heart. The Ultimate Commuter Location The biggest selling point for me has been the proximity to Hove Station. It is quite literally a stone's throw away. It has completely transformed my morning routine—the commute is actually relaxing when you don’t have to worry about a long trek to the platform. You can leave your front door minutes before departure and still be on time. Everything You Need Within Walking Distance The local amenities make life here incredibly seamless: Dining & Drinks: You are spoilt for choice with an array of vibrant bars and traditional pubs right nearby. It’s perfect for a Friday night out or a quiet Sunday roast. Shopping: From daily essentials to boutique finds, the local shops cover everything. You rarely need to head into the main city center because it's all right here. Health & Wellness: Having a doctor's surgery within such close proximity is a massive practical bonus that adds real peace of mind. Final Thoughts The building itself is modern and well-maintained, but it’s the lifestyle the location affords that really sets it apart. It’s the perfect base for anyone who values their time and wants to be in the heart of a thriving community.
