Godwin Developments has completed the sale of the consented scheme on Agard Street to Marble Homes, an experienced East Midlands student developer and operator. Representing Marbles’ largest student development to-date, the modern scheme is located just minutes from the University of Derby’s School of Law and Social Sciences at One Friar Gate Square. It is surrounded by a range of existing amenities and public transport options which can be easily accessed by residents and is just 10 minutes’ walk from the city centre and Derby’s main food and entertainment district. The Agard Street development is also conveniently located immediately opposite the University’s recently unveiled city centre Masterplan, which includes a brand-new Business School and Enterprise Zones. The scheme is situated within the ‘City Hub’ and aligns closely with the institution’s commitment to the regeneration of Derby by attracting a growing number of students into the city. The site has full planning permission, secured by Godwin Developments, and includes 142 high quality student studios set over seven storeys, as well as a reception area, residents lounge and laundry facilities.
