“The Cube”, designed by Lewis & Hickey, is Ocon’s first scheme for developer, Anaash Holdings, comprising 105 en-suite units. The Cube was completed within nine-months and included the decontamination of a brownfield site which had formerly been occupied by a garage and petrol station, along with removal of the fuel tanks.
Located on Ashby Road and within a mile of the Loughborough University campus, the four-storey student accommodation will provide a high quality, convenient base for students beginning the autumn term.
Comments Vijay Patel from Anaash Holdings: “Our decision to call upon the experience of a student accommodation specialist has really paid off, as Ocon has delivered on both quality and timescales. Completing within budget is always essential and deadlines are business critical in this sector because students are waiting to move in. We’ve had great feedback on the scheme and are delighted to have played a key role in transforming a piece of waste ground into a quality, contemporary development.”
