Southern Grove’s Future Generation has secured planning permission for a £25m student scheme in Cambridge.
It will develop 154 student bedrooms at Barnwell Gate, following an 18-month consultation.
The scheme, designed by CMP Architects, comprises clusters of rooms, shared living and kitchen facilities and 20 self-contained studio apartments. Construction is expected to begin in December.
Andrew Southern, chairman of Southern Grove and Future Generation, said: “While demand for student accommodation in some parts of the country is beginning to tail off, there is huge ongoing demand for purpose built student accommodation in Cambridge.”
