8 Reasons to Choose a Selly Oak Studio with Unihousing

With the new year in full swing, it is never too soon to start looking for a student property for the next academic year. Though you may not have to make a decision right away, the longer you put it off, the less likely you are to find accommodation that suits your wants and needs.

 


One of our most popular types of student accommodation is our modern, fully fitted studios. For someone who is seeking their own private space that is close to the University of Birmingham, one of our studios could be a great option for you. Still unsure if a studio with Unihousing is right for you? Have a look at our list below to see some of the reasons why a studio could be a good fit!

 


1. Privacy and Quiet

 


One of the main benefits of renting a studio with Unihousing is the privacy you will receive. Though there are perks with living in shared houses, it can be tricky with cleaning rotas, personal space and different lifestyles. Our studios offer an open plan living area, with a spacious double bed, food prep area, ensuite bathroom and a desk/revising space.

 




By having your own private space, you have more freedom to go about your daily life without any disruptions, schedule clashes, or cleaning rota stress. You will also have the freedom to invite friends into your space when you want, instead of being surrounded by people at the times when you may just want to be alone.

 


2. Modern Fittings and Spacious Interiors

 


Unihousing’s student studios are modern, up to date and contain all of the amenities you could need. Many of our studios have been newly refurbished and are maintained regularly to ensure they are up to date.


 

Our fully furnished studios include a fresh, stylish ensuite bathroom with modern fittings and other amenities including a quiet fridge/freezer, hobs, electric oven and a washer/dryer. Your desk area will also have a flat-screen TV for your personal use and high-speed internet will also be included.

 


3. Brilliant Location

 


All of our studios are ideally located in the student village of Selly Oak. Here you will find many necessary and desirable shopping and food hot spots including cafes, restaurants, pubs, clubs, varied takeout, a local gym and parks in the surrounding area. With supermarkets and a large shopping centre located close by, you will surely find everything you need throughout your stay in Selly Oak.

 


4. Easy Transport around Birmingham and Beyond

 




Selly Oak is not only populated with shops, entertainment and various food hotspots, but it also has a great transportation system. With a local train station and bus lines into the city centre and around Birmingham, Selly Oak has access to the majority of the city, including Aston University and Birmingham City University. A quick trip to the centre will also then give you access to other cities you can visit and explore.

 

If you want to discover more in Birmingham, the historical Harborne, Moseley village and Kings Heath are worth checking out. With even more entertainment, culture and amazing food, you will surely never have a dull moment as a student. You will also be eligible to various student discounts for shops and travel including bus passes and railcards, which will come in handy with your travels.

 


5. Closely Located to the University of Birmingham

 


Though this might not be the biggest consideration for some students, the distance from your accommodation to your campus can have a massive impact on your student life. All of our studios are within walking distance to the University of Birmingham, which means that you can get to all of your lectures and classes with ease. This could save you not only time and energy, but money too as you wouldn’t need to spend anything on transport.





6. Dedicated Team of Professionals

 


Unihousing is one of the top student landlords in Selly Oak, with years of experience and a team that will provide support whenever possible. All common areas in the student complex are regularly cleaned by our wonderful cleaning team, while any studio maintenance is dealt with by our dedicated maintenance team as well. This allows us to tend to any issues that could arise quickly and effectively.

 


7. Bills and High-Speed Broadband Included in Monthly Rent

 


There frequently are hidden costs when renting a property, which can cause problems for tenants down the road. To make the process easier and more cost-effective for our students, we include utility bills and high-speed 100Mb broadband into the price of the rent. This way you won’t be caught up with various setup fees, paperwork and confusion regarding bills.

 


This will also allow you to create a more fool-proof budget for yourself, as you will know the exact monthly costs in advance. Our high-speed internet is great for streaming, gaming and studying throughout your year at University.


 

8. Low Deposits and Flexible Contract Deals (Limited Offers)

 


At Unihousing we frequently offer low and even no deposits for our student studios, to make the process a bit easier and more affordable. Additionally, we also offer flexible contract lengths for many of our properties, which will allow tenants to start and end their tenancy when it best suits them.
