I advise to look at several apartments because the view varies. I have two cats and I wanted to be situated over the main road so they have something to look at.

I feel in love with this complex in the spring of 2024. When I finally got the approval of my work visa this was the complex I contacted and was lucky enough to get the last of the apartment layout that I loved. I loved it so much I rented it for three months before I moved in. The location is so convenient and easy (for Birmingham traffic) to get to from the motorways and the areas around. The team is enthusiastic and engaged with the residents and they make it easy to be a resident. Close to high street shopping, award winning restaurants and theatre. Easy to take walk in the neighbourhood and feel very safe. So close to get to all of the Saturday markets. Having the option of underground parking is a plus along with a pet cleaning room that my groomer can use for my fur babies.

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

They have always responded to any issue I have had. All of which I created myself by not being familiar with how some things work in a new environment/country for me.

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

That Cricket fans are very dedicated to their sport and attendance is amazing. It has not created a problem at all for me but it was quite a cultural shock.

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

Good aspects are Aldi n Morrisons are literally outside. Cannon hill park is there. There is no bad side really other than traffic specially on match days

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

So there is maintenance team onsite, they are very responsive in terms of any issues that come in.

That we can use meeting room for free. If knew it before i’d have used it all the time.

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

Very accessible to town centre and easy public transport links. Aldi across the road for ease. Sometimes quite loud due to main road.

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

They’ve responded fairly quick and are fast to sort out any maintenance issues.

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