Residents Zenoria St

James collected a couple of beds for me today and would be really happy to use home again. Great communications and very prompt. Would recommend. Thanks James.

I would echo everything that has already been said about Tony and Brendan at NoFlies. They helped me set a realistic price for my property, arranged an open day, and I accepted an offer above the asking price in just over a week. They are so easy to work with and I felt they were really working on my behalf. I have also been selling my mother’s house using a big high street agent and my experience has been so different, they spin a yarn about how much your property is worth in order to get your business, they rarely have anyone available to attend the property for surveys etc, and they show little interest in communicating what’s going on. Selling a house can be a stressful business so go with an agent that has your back and gives you the personal service. They are also cheaper than the big high street agents - Win, Win!

Spin Doctor is invaluable. I called him this morning about my washing machine and he came and fixed it before lunchtime! I have used him several times over the years and he is totally reliable, unlike my machine, and I would recommend him unreservedly. Great value for money.

The issue at hand here is that there has never been a retail outlet on Zenoria Street.Yes we are close to Lordship Lane.All the more reason to try to hang onto the residential character of our street.The warehouse building has only ever been used for storage connected to the retail outlet on Lordship Lane. Yes, there is a Dental Technician working in Zenoria Street but they do not engage in any retail activity - members of the public are not drawn into the street by this business. If Ed Warehouse want to run a retail outlet in Zenoria Street then they need planning permission for change of use. Ed Warehouse advertising promises 'a unique shopping experience' in their proposed 'indoor market.' 'Ultraconsultancy', active on this site suggests Ed Warehouse will be 'Open 7 days. Certainly weekdays plus Saturday.' Do you support retail outlets opening where they choose with no regard for residents or planning laws? Whatever they are selling?

Just come across this forum and read with horror the comments about the ?Ed Warehouse?. As residents of Zenoria Street we are in strong opposition to this new development which is being set up without any consultation with local residents or planning permission from Southwark Council. Three planning applications for commercial enterprises on this site have been turned down in the past 18 months, the most recent in July 2007. One of the reasons given for these refusals was that the proposed developments would significantly increase the number of visitors to this residential street causing 'increased noise and disturbance which would be to the detriment of the amenity of local residents'. Do 'Ed Warehouse' really believe they are above planning laws and consider that it is not necessary to give local residents the opportunity to voice their objections through the due planning process? Planning laws exist (among other things) to protect local residents from creeping commercial development and to preserve the character of local areas. One of the reasons why the residents of Zenoria Street opposed the Cafe Nero development was to attempt to halt this commercial intrusion into their residential street. ?Ed Warehouse?, while stressing in their advertising their commitment to local traders and their independent status are using the existence of Caf? Nero as a justification for their commercial enterprise. Since ?Ed Warehouse? have made no formal Application for Planning permission we have been kept completely in the dark about their intentions for the site. Their work on the site (at times from 7am ? 11.30pm) for the past seven weeks has been without any regard for the feelings of local residents, causing considerable noise and disturbance. This high handed approach has characterised the whole development. The advert in 'SE22' was the first we knew about their plans for a retail outlet of 25 individual units being developed in our street and visiting this forum today is the first we knew of their additional plans for a caf? and juice bar. The only contact made by ?Ed Warehouse? came last night via a letter to residents of Zenoria Street stating ?We would have hated to have seen a traditional Victorian building changed to facilitate a high street chain like Tesco, resulting in a complete change to the front of the building, not to mention an influx of large delivery lorries blocking up the street.? Do ?Ed Warehouse? think their development won?t result in increased traffic in this street? They clearly do not understand that any retail outlet is neither acceptable to residents of this street nor allowable through planning laws. It is not a choice between Tesco?s and ?Ed Warehouse?? Apparently, we should be grateful they are setting up this development ? we are not and we will fight it all the way.
