The development has recently been completed in the south east of the city centre and represents a significant addition to Leed's city centre apartment provision for students. The development comprises both en-suite (where there is an individual shower room for the sole use of the occupant of the study bedroom) and non-ensuite shared apartments.
The development has been carefully designed to incorporate excellent safety features in addition to a high degree of comfort and convenience for the tenants.
Facilities
Each flat has a spacious living room and dining area off the kitchen. A washer/drier is provided within the rent level. Water and heating is provided by electric heaters which are controlled by the tenants on time switches and thermostats. As a modern building there is a high standard of insulation of both windows and walls.
The building is protected by a heat and smoke detector fire system with self closing fire doors and protected exit routes.
One five bedroomed shared flat is accessible for students in wheelchairs. Bathrooms are adapted wet rooms with seated showering facilities. Kitchen facilities are not height adapted so may not be suitable for some. If you have special accommodation requirements and would like to discuss your needs with Unipol, please contact S.McDonald@unipol.leeds.ac.uk
Security
Entry to the flats is via a spacious reception area with seating and a reception desk. There are two lifts in the building which take you into the two different parts of the building. The building (and the perimeter in the evening) is secured with access by swipe fob for tenants and entry phone for visitors. CCTV images of the entry points are delivered to tenant's own televisions. This means you can see who is calling before they are let in.
TV, Telephone and Internet
There are sockets for terrestrial, Freeview and Sky satellite television*, FM radio and DAB radio and a telephone socket (subject to reconnection to the network at the tenant's expense) are provided in each room and in the lounge area of each flat.
There is also an fully supported internet service provided at an additional cost. You can find more information on prices and system requirements here.
