As project managers and funding partners in the LLP, we've secured an option to purchase a redundant shop and fitness centre in Southampton. A planning application to redevelop and provide a prime retail store with 66 student studios over three upper floors was refused. We are now appealing a fefusal of planning permission and are currently awaiting the outcome.

City Centre, Southampton

We're project managers and funding partners in the LLP which has secured the purchase of a group of vacant commercial buildings in the centre of Southampton. We have been granted planning permission to redevelop the site with replacement buildings that will result in four retail stores, a café, 188 student rooms and communal facilities. We are preparing to develop and complete so the rooms can be let for the 2021/22 academic year. We are looking at potentially replanning the site for the exciting co-living sector. 

Portswood, Southampton

We purchased this redundant industrial building in Southampton unconditionally and we're undertaking the project management and funding partner roles in the LLP created for the purpose. A planning application to redevelop the site with replacement buildings which will provide 37 self-contained student studios was refused. We are currently in the process of appealing the refusal of planning and we have let the space on a short term basis whist awaiting the outcome.

Katesgrove, Reading

We're project managing and joint funding partner in the LLP which acquired a closed pub in Reading and obtained planning permission to convert the building into four flats. In addition, a planning application was submitted to redevelop the site to provide a block of 38 student studios, however this was refused. We have now won our appeal and will begin development to deliver the studios in the 2020/2021 academic year; it will be retained as an investment property.
