Description

An excellent opportunity to acquire a modern student studio apartment within the popular Opto Student development on City Road, Newcastle upon Tyne. Ideally positioned for access to the city's universities, transport links and extensive range of retail, leisure and dining facilities, this well-presented property offers an attractive opportunity for investors seeking exposure to Newcastle's student accommodation market.

The self-contained studio is thoughtfully designed to maximise space and functionality, incorporating an open-plan living, sleeping and study area with fitted furniture, including a bed frame, desk and storage units. A fitted kitchenette comprises a range of wall and base units, an integrated oven, electric hob and sink, while a contemporary shower room completes the accommodation.

Residents benefit from a range of on-site facilities designed to enhance student living, including secure entry systems, lift access, communal lounges, dedicated study areas, games facilities and a rooftop terrace offering city views. The development also benefits from management facilities and dedicated communal spaces for socialising and studying.

Investment Opportunity

Accreditation has been applied for to facilitate fixed-term student lettings, with approval anticipated shortly. Subject to the necessary approval being granted, this will provide an opportunity to let the property to students in line with the academic year

Further enhancing the appeal, three studio apartments are available within the development as part of a deceased estate portfolio. Investors may therefore have the opportunity to acquire multiple units, creating potential for a larger-scale investment within an established student accommodation development.

Location

Opto Student occupies a convenient position on City Road, on the edge of Newcastle city centre. Both Northumbria University and Newcastle University are accessible from the development, alongside Newcastle Quayside, Central Station and the city's extensive shopping, restaurant and leisure amenities.

Combining modern, purpose-designed accommodation, communal lifestyle facilities and a convenient city centre location, this studio represents an appealing investment opportunity within Newcastle's student property market.
