    We are officially the talk of the town… or world! Yes, we opened our doors to the media last week so they could have a sneaky look at The Edge before you guys moved in and you may have seen us on the news, nationally and even across the pond in the USA! Here are some of the brilliant things they said about your new home, lucky things…

     

    Capital FM: “It looks more like a top apartment than student digs!”

    Yorkshire Post: “Poshest student property in Yorkshire. Full of Icons and their quotes. Love it”

    Yorkshire Evening Post: “The most swanky student flats in the city?”

    Daily Mail: “Are these Britain's most luxurious student digs? The Edge provides boutique hotel-like living 365 days of the year and has all-inclusive bills, superfast 100MB

    broadband and flat screen TVs”

    BT: “Luxury property company Parklane Properties has opened its doors to the most lavish student accommodation you will ever set eyes on”

     

    This development is a long time coming and it means a great deal to open our doors and welcome the first cohort of tenants into The Edge – we hope you love the facilities as much as we do.

    You may notice the iconic quotes dotted around the building. This idea was developed by our managing director, and it wasn’t just to make the walls seem more interesting, but to inspire you with the wise words of some of the world’s most iconic people of our time.

    As you are all studying for your masters, post graduate degrees or whatever it may be, The Edge was built with you in mind and your potential to be the next icon. We hope in the coming years, some of our own tenants will make the walls!

    Now, most of you are probably settling in to your new pad and lapping up the comfort of your 1,000 pocket sprung mattresses, so enjoy your week, and keep posted throughout the year for some of our top tips catered just for you lucky lot at The Edge!

    And don’t forget, if you have any questions, give us a tweet @iconinc_uk or ask our concierge on site, enjoy!
