Danehurst was granted planning approval for this new, exciting gateway building overlooking Palmerston Park in the centre of Southampton in December 2023 and the new building development will provide accommodation for 139 studio accommodation in an 8-13 storey building.
The accommodation is east/ west facing offering truly remarkable and uninterrupted views towards the Solent and the Isle of Wight.
The new accommodation will offer the students generous and carefully considered shared communal spaces, including social lounge, study rooms, fully equipped gym, sky lounge, laundry and cycle parking. Access to the building will be off Pound Tree Road.
The building sits right in the town centre, offering easy access to all the amenities the town centre has to offer and with 8 bus stops right outside, it offers easy access to all higher education facilities in Southampton.
The building is in the process of being approved by the Building Safety Regulator (Gateway 2) and we anticipate commencing works in October 2025 with doors opening to students in September 2027.
The Rubik will be the first new building in Southampton to have gone through the new building regulation regime and will be among the safest buildings to live in and we can’t wait to bring this new, exciting accommodation with amazing views across Southampton and surrounding areas to students.
The building will be carbon free and be finished to BREEAM ‘Excellent’ standard.
