The Development

The development is an important Grade II listed nineteenth-century building, converted into a restaurant and opticians on the ground floor and three floors of student accommodation above. It is situated in the Exchange Quarter of the city, known for its cafes, bars and restaurants. It is also next to the historic Kirkgate market and tenants can take advantage of the low cost of provisions there.

The Corn Exchange and the main shopping areas including Harvey Nichols and The Victoria Quarter are just around the corner, for more expensive purchases. Internally the development is spacious and stylish with a modern decor scheme and furniture. There are some excellent views of Leeds city centre.

Each flat has two showers (one over a bath), a newly refurbished kitchen and soft-furnished living room next to the kitchen with sofas provided. Heating and hot water provided by energy efficient combi boiler systems. A washer/drier is provided within the rent level.

The building is protected by a heat and smoke detector fire system with fire doors and protected exit routes.
