It's an excellent community and great clean new property. The proximity to all shops and the train is a clear bonus. The units are new and modern while maintaining it is simple as no carpets.

Overall, I am satisfied.
There are various events, so it's great.
However, it would be good to proceed on weekends or late hours as well. Thank you
