Northgate Studios | Development Progress

Here you will find the latest progress reports and images for the construction of the Northgate Studios in the historic city of Chester, UK.

Northgate Studios is a brand new development due for August 2018. This stunning, purpose built student accommodation building in Chester is the place to be for students studying in the city.

Strategically located close to the University of Chester and Chester city centre, these apartments come complete with high-spec furniture and are the perfect solution for students looking for independent living in a high quality and safe environment.

Demand for this type of student accommodation is at an all time high. The market’s resilience through the years has created a safe and stable platform for investors who are looking for increasing rental growth, strong yields and outstanding performance.

Northgate Studios is a new, superb investment opportunity in the under-supplied overseas and postgraduate student property market. This luxury development offers investors a market-leading minimum of 8% per annum for a 5-year period, meaning a 40% assured rental income over five years minimum.
