The Vera Mitchell Building

The site lies less than 200m from De Montfort University, putting residents within easy reach of shops, restaurants, theatres, parks and countless other amenities.

The building itself will be a modern, multilevel development, rising up from a leafy residential street that is also home to older apartments, terraced houses and student accommodation.

Overview

Jarrom Street begins close to Swan Bridge, which spans the River Soar, and then runs in a northeasterly direction towards Oxford Street and the city centre. It’s a relatively quiet and leafy road that features a mix of modern hospital buildings, well maintained student apartments, terraced houses and The Sir Robert Peel – an historic pub that dates back to the mid1800s.

At the southwestern end stands the iconic Summit building, a 22 storey student accommodation block and reputedly the third tallest building in the city. At the opposite end stands Leicester Royal Infirmary’s Kensington Building, which is home to an NHS maternity ward and antenatal clinics.

For many residents, The Vera Mitchell Building will provide a very convenient address. It’s within easy walking distance of all the main hospital departments and the De Montford University’s main campus, and the city centre itself is less than 700m distant. The neighbourhood is therefore popular amongst academics, healthcare workers and many other professionals.

Leicester is, of course, a major British city, so it offers all manner of services, entertainments and amenities. Those include banks, shopping centres, theatres, museums and galleries, as well as places unique to the city, such as Leicester Cathedral and the King Richard III Visitor Centre.

In short, The Vera Mitchell Building is exceptionally well situated – set close to major local employers, key attractions and all the essential urban conveniences.

Location

Within just a 1km radius of The Vera Mitchell Building are plenty of green spaces, too: several scenic parks, allotments, sports clubs and recreation grounds. Two of the nearest are Castle Park, which lies beside Leicester Castle, and Bede Park, whose large open lawns extend down to the banks of the Old River Soar.

Small wonder, then, that Leicester scores consistently highly in national ‘quality of life’ surveys. According to the latest Good Growth for Cities Report by Demos and PwC, it appears in the UK top 20, scoring particularly well on measures such as skills, business growth, income distribution and worklife balance.

The report places it higher than any other city in the East Midlands, and ahead of other popular locations such as Manchester, Birmingham and London.
