    Generally I would say I agree with PeterC and excathedra.  Location in real estate whether it be in strata or freehold has advantages/disadvantages.  Our strata has some similar issues which we resolved.  The one issue that our strata would discess would be about the alcove you mention. 

    Is the use of these alcoves depriving others of common property that they could reasonably be expected to use? 

    Does their use deprive any other owners in any way or result in a nuisance to other occupiers? 

     

    By deprive I don’t mean just because the other units can’t use the alcove no one else should be allowed to.
