Iron Yard, Sheffield’s latest Build-to-Rent (BTR) offering, is 100% let just 14 weeks after it was launched to the public.
More than 30% of the 95 one and two-bedroom boutique apartments were let to tenants on the first day of the launch, and a recent open day attracted more than 100 potential tenants, demonstrating the strong demand for high quality BTR living in the city.
Situated in the heart of the city centre, Iron Yard features a gym, concierge service, residents’ lounge, co-working space and communal garden, as well as extensive private parking with EV chargers available.
Oblix Living CEO Rishi Passi said: “Iron Yard was designed to meet the needs of Sheffield’s rising community of young professionals. Everything from the communal amenity spaces to the on-site team and of course the design and finish of the apartments themselves.
“I’m delighted that the development is 100% let in such a short space of time. The demand has been so strong and the response overwhelmingly positive. It’s a real testament to the city and to the partnership with Centrick that Iron Yard has attracted such a diverse range of residents so quickly.”
Residential property management specialist Centrick has been appointed to manage Iron Yard, providing its BTR services, through its new VICI platform.
VICI director Clare Johnson said: “Iron Yard is a fantastic development and we are looking forward to working alongside Oblix Living to deliver outstanding consulting and operational BTR services, which we have continued to grow over many years of experience and expertise in this key growth sector.
“We are going to work together with tenants to create a thriving, sustainable community within this fabulous new development and are already planning the next unmissable community events.”
