Unite Students has acquired a development site in Glasgow with a view to building a new £126m purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) scheme on the site.

The Central Quay property, which is situated north of the River Clyde, will offer 934 beds and include a social marketplace café, a yoga room, gym, screen rooms and a garden room with a terrace.

Full planning permission for the scheme was received earlier this year and the property is set to open ahead of the 2027/28 academic year.

Tom Brewerton, group development director at Unite Students, said: “Our latest Glasgow development, north of the River Clyde, will create a new supply of high quality, affordable student accommodation in the city to support the continued growth of our university partners. This property will provide more homes for students while helping to ease Glasgow’s housing storage by freeing up houses for families.”
