Summary:
- Study Inn has submitted plans for a 110-bed student accommodation building in York, featuring studio rooms and six-bedroom cluster apartments with en suites, alongside on-site amenities including a health spa, gym, games room, and outdoor garden.
- The proposed development will replace the Jax Motorcycles showroom on James Street and aims to provide premium, hotel-style living, joining Study Inn’s existing portfolio of seven UK sites across cities such as Bristol, Leeds, and Nottingham.
- The application highlights growing student demand in York, driven by rising university applications and a shortage of quality accommodation, with many current options being older houses of multiple occupation in poor condition.
