Student accommodation and Build to Rent apartment scheme planned for site of Leicester office building

Proposals have been submitted for purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) and a Build to Rent (BtR) apartment scheme on Welford Road in Leicester.

Cheswold Welford Road Limited are seeking full planning permission to redevelop James House for the scheme.

The plans involve the demolition of the existing office building at the site to make way for a student accommodation block providing 351 bedspaces, and a Build to Rent block providing 106 apartments made up of 46 one bed and 60 two bed flats.

There would also be a commercial unit on the ground floor.
