Press House, Woolwich: first phase of 299 student homes completed

Hurlington and its partners Q Investment Partners and Gamuda have reached practical completion on the first phase of Press House, a purpose-built student scheme on Beresford Street in Woolwich, delivered ahead of programme and on budget.

Phase 1 provides 299 student homes, a mix of studio and cluster apartments, with ground-floor study rooms, a games room, a gym and yoga studio, and a communal terrace overlooking the River Thames. A second phase follows.

The site, within the Royal Arsenal regeneration area, was acquired by Hurlington in 2020. The scheme topped out alongside Gamuda and QIP before reaching completion.
