Unite acquires Glasgow site for 934-bed PBSA scheme

Unite Students has purchased a Glasgow site from Summix Capital to develop a £126m student accommodation scheme comprising 934 beds. Unite received full planning consent for the development earlier this year, and it is due to be completed ahead of the 2027/28 academic year. The Central Quay property, north of the River Clyde, will include a social marketplace café, yoga room, gym, screen rooms and a garden room with a terrace.  Tom Brewerton, group development director at Unite Students, said: “Our latest Glasgow development 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.” View market analytics for Glasgow >> Image from Unite Students
