What is Co-Living?
Creating a genuine community is at the heart of co-living.
Well-designed shared spaces, including combined living rooms and kitchens and outside space, enable people to come together and create lasting friendships and connections.
The flexibility to play, work and socialise in the communal space whilst returning to the luxurious warmth of one's own bedroom is unbeatable.
What makes our homes special?
Our homes are designed from the bottom up to optimize space, function and design to create a great living experience so our housemates can work, socialise and relax in a supportive community environment.
-
Large well designed double bedrooms with plenty of storage space and ensuites wherever possible, including small touches like dimmable LED lighting, usb chargers and black out blinds;
-
Beautiful living room and kitchen spaces, fully equipped with everything needed for cooking, cleaning, and relaxing;

Superfast 200MB+ broadband seamlessly distributed to each floor, and a large flat screen TV in the living room with a full Virgin TV package.
