概览

Rock Lodge, formerly a care home, is currently undergoing renovations to accommodate the rapidly growing student market in Sunderland. Unlike the typical plain, high-rise student accommodations, this building is full of character. The refurbishments are progressing well and will be completed in time for the September 2024 intake.

The building spans across 3 floors and offers Studio apartments, each equipped with its own kitchenette and white goods. Additionally, every studio has its own en-suite, double bed, and dedicated study area, making it the perfect place for students to spend their time. Despite the spaciousness of the individual studios, however, there are also 5 communal kitchen areas where students can socialize and cook together.

To ensure the safety and peace of mind of both residents and investors, the building is equipped with state-of-the-art CCTV. This feature provides an added layer of security to the building adding to its attractiveness. As an added cost-saving benefit for owners, the building has gas-central heating to help reduce utility bills.
