• Landlord references from tenants of this property:
  

"We've loved living in this flat SO MUCH and we're very sad to say goodbye."

"We love it here! Thanks again for a wonderful home. We are sad to leave!"

"Dan's been my Landlord for just over 18 months, directly handling the property management of the flat I've been living in. During that time he's arguably been the perfect landlord; helpful, efficient, contactable and responsive when needed and un-intrusive when not needed. To my knowledge, he's followed best practice and all appropriate regulations to the letter. Beyond all the above, I've found him to be very fair, and a nice guy. Couldn't ask for anything more from a landlord. That he lives in the area is also handy on the off-chance any urgent assistance is needed with the flat for whatever reason."

"We've both absolutely loved living here (the space, the park, the garden and the lovely neighbours have been particularly welcome during lockdown) and would definitely stay if we could."

"We’ve absolutely loved living here and will be sad to move on!"

Many previous tenants have subsequently bought very nearby (at least one was keen to buy this particular flat).
