Student Housing in Winchester

Students in Winchester may soon have to find student accommodation further away from the university campus.

If Winchester City Council chooses to accept a new government scheme, which will give them the power to limit the amount of university managed properties; students could soon struggle to find affordable housing within walking distance of campus.

A local estate agent disagrees with the housing difficulties that are facing students:

Audio Name: Student Housing
In words: “Unfortunately the”
Out Words: “past years”
Duration: 0’19’

If the scheme is put in place, the Council could stop estate agents from renting family homes to students, reducing the housing options for thousands of students.
