Selly Oak Student Housing, Birmingham

Walker Modular is happy to announce they will supply all Bathroom Pods for this 418-bedroom project on the Battery Park site which is currently under development and due for completion for the 2019/20 academic year. The halls in Selly Oak will be privately run but are most likely to attract students from the nearby University of Birmingham campus. This development emphasises the interest for new, larger and more efficient properties with cluster flat accommodation, available at a lower price point for students. The accommodation, in Selly Oak, forms part of the wider regeneration of the former Battery Park site, near Queen Elizabeth Hospital, which will eventually comprise a new Sainsbury's supermarket, petrol station, other retail and commercial space and new public realm. The accommodation aspect will see studios and shared flats built in three blocks, reaching 11, 14 and 18 storeys respectively, next to the Birmingham and Worcester Canal.
