QUIET ROAD PERFECT FOR STUDY
IDEAL FOR MEDICS + POST GRADS
This house is perfect for medical students and student nurses as the property is within a short walk to the QE Hospital. After all, you deserve a quick commute to the QE.
University of Birmingham students who want to live somewhere that's got a more homely, quiet feel to it will also love this house. You're in a residential street, close to the park. Brilliant for anyone looking for a zen calm in which to study.
When you get sick of studying and the only cure is coffee (yes, I mean gin), Harborne Road's cafes, coffee shops and bars are only a ten-minute walk away.
For your big shop, you're an 11-minute bus ride from Sainsbury's. If you're reaching the end of your loan and need to economise, Aldi in Bearwood is only 20 minutes on the bus. (With the money you've saved, you can splash out and get a taxi home!)
If your list of 'must haves' for your accommodation includes living somewhere modern, smart and comfy then this house is definitely worth a look. The house has been freshly refurbished.
Each room has a double bed. You can also enjoy the sitting room, fully fitted kitchen (with dishwasher) and garden. The garden is maintained. All you have to do is remember the sunscreen and Pimms.
Of course, the real selling point is the huge amounts of storage available. Great news if you wanted to bring a two-person canoe. (Don't bring a two-person canoe.)

Purple frog are a student property letting and management agency. After opening our first office near the University of Birmingham in 2007 we opened two further offices in 2009 in Nottingham and Bristol to help students and landlords in those cities too! As graduates we know the areas, the markets and the problems within it; we use our experiences to find housing that matches tenant’s requirements. By including photos and as much details as possible of houses in a clear and easily searchable way on our website, students can see what a property is like before they go to view it meaning everyone involved wastes less time! Landlords want good tenants, tenants want good landlords and for that reason that we only work with accredited or reputable landlords. We take time to inspect houses and ensure they are up to current legislation and the property has all required safety certificates. We also get a good understanding of our landlords by chatting to their existing tenants.
