Park Life Co-living Student Accommodation Southampton

81-85 East Street|Southampton|SO14 3HQ|United Kingdom

Park Life is a modern co-living, flexible student accommodation development situated in the ‘Heart of the City Quarter’ which helps to improve students mental health whilst creating integrated communities.

Southampton has over 32,000 full-time students in university-based Higher Education. Currently, the university halls of residence meet the demand of approximately only 7,800 students.

The current private sector halls of residence only meet the demand of approximately 5,300 students. Meaning the combined accommodation supply only completes 41% of the need for students living in the city, with 15.5% provided by the PBSA schemes.

19,000+ students are still unable to access purpose-built accommodation. (Knight Frank 2019)

Student numbers predicted to increase by 27% by 2030. (JLL Dec 2019) with the private sector expected to play a crucial role in addressing this demand.

Room rents in Southampton remain high, placed 5th out of 15 in recent agency analysis. The city is considered a healthy market for PBSA investment.
