      We are marketing a ground-breaking building – the first student residential accommodation in Scotland to be awarded the BREEAM ‘Outstanding’ accolade.

      Bidwells, together with Edinburgh-based Lewis Sutton Property Consultants, has been chosen to sell Prestige Student Living’s Fraser Studios in Aberdeen, comprising 173 purpose-built units located near to the University and just ten minutes from the city centre.

      The building achieved a BREEAM ‘Outstanding’ rating in the world’s leading environmental assessment method, through the design team’s meticulous attention to detail and integrity in delivering a high quality sustainable building.

      Colin Summers, Investment Partner at Bidwells said:

      "It is a great privilege to be promoting such a unique building and the first of its kind in Scotland to have achieved this highly-regarded rating. These prestigious studios offer an outstanding environment said: “It is a great privilege to be marketing s with a wide range of in-house facilities and a convenient location close to the University of Aberdeen and near to the city centre with all it has to offer."

      Jonathan Sutton from Lewis Sutton added:

      "We are delighted to be jointly promoting Fraser Studios and it is testament to its quality, that the property is witnessing rapid take-up in its first year of operation.

      There’s a choice of five different styles of studio, to suit a range of budgets. All are highly-specified and come with a large bed and study area, as well as a modern integrated kitchen. Stylish communal facilities include a cinema and games room and laundry facilities, as well as up to 100Mbps Wi-fi. Inclusive pricing means that utility bills are covered and some styles of studio incorporate gym and swim membership."

      Andy Taylor from Visage Properties added:

      "This is a ground-breaking project on two counts – the highest BREEAM-rated student residential building in Scotland and the first to achieve an ‘Outstanding’ rating."

      Richard Tynan at Titlestone which funded the project said:

      "Titlestone was delighted to support Visage Properties and its development of a purpose-built student block of 173 units in Aberdeen, Scotland. We have been impressed by the team’s pragmatic approach and attention to detail which has rightly earned them a BREEAM ‘Outstanding’ rating for the finished scheme. Titlestone remains committed to funding purpose-built student accommodation schemes in quality locations throughout the UK."
