Below, we look at all the reasons you should choose Unihousing accommodation as a Birmingham student.



Why Choose Selly Oak?


Selly Oak is often referred to as the ‘student village’, as it is very well suited for the student lifestyle. Birmingham is home to many universities, including the prestigious redbrick University of Birmingham, which is only a short walk from Bristol Road in Selly Oak. There are also several transport links heading into the city centre, which makes accessing the rest of Birmingham easy. Combined with the many local amenities and entertainment options, this makes Selly Oak a fantastic location no matter which university you’re attending.





Inside Student Accommodation


While it’s important to make sure that everything you need outside of your student accommodation is easy to reach, it’s also important to check that you have everything you need inside as well. Luckily for you, we at Unihousing have you covered. We have years of experience helping students find their ideal accommodation and can help you find a studio or house that suits you.


All of our student studios are fully furnished with the essentials, meaning you can move in straight away without the hassle of getting furniture. Some of the furnishings you can expect in our studios include a double bed, study desk and chair, a flatscreen TV, plenty of storage, and a snack area with low-noise white goods. Our studios also come with fitted ensuite shower rooms, which you don’t have to share with anyone else. Additionally, you can enjoy 100Mb broadband and utility bills being included in the rent, which makes planning your budget much easier.



 


If you do need any maintenance or repairs while you’re staying in our accommodation, we have a dedicated maintenance team who can facilitate your repairs quickly. Because we are a registered landlord who owns all our properties, we have a reason to keep all our properties in top condition. This includes outfitting all our student accommodation with double glazing and laminated flooring throughout.

Socialising is a huge part of student life, and Selly Oak has many social venues which students can enjoy. With several pubs and clubs along Bristol Road, there is plenty of choice for having a good night out.
