CKC Properties acquired this prime site with a vision to create a vibrant and modern student living space in the heart of Leicester. Situated adjacent to Leicester Train Station with an abundance of amenities nearby, the location is unbeatable and only a short train ride or 15-minute walk to the University campus.

Student-focused amenities include a communal lounge, a fantastic study space and a garden terrace offering a tranquil oasis in the centre of the city, ideal for relaxing and alfresco dining.

CKC Properties secured planning permission for 159 PBSA units and a second phase increased the total number of rooms to 256. The site was sold with planning to CA Ventures.
