Tervuur
Just outside Leuven’s city ring, along the Tervuursesteenweg, we are developing Tervuur: a thoughtfully designed student residence comprising rooms and studios arranged around a green inner courtyard. Its strategic location, close to two leading university campuses and offering excellent accessibility, makes it an exceptionally attractive base for students.
Tervuursesteenweg 127 - 3000 Leuven
Tervuur is located just outside Leuven’s city ring, a stone’s throw from the Gasthuisberg and Arenberg campuses, and close to IMEC. A supermarket and a bus stop are situated directly opposite the residence. Despite this strategic location, the site enjoys a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere.
In addition to your private room or studio, you also become co-owner of the shared indoor and outdoor facilities. The most eye-catching communal space is undoubtedly the generous 1,000 m² landscaped courtyard garden. The shared kitchens and sanitary facilities have likewise been finished to a high standard, combining quality materials with a stylish and contemporary design.
Thanks to the cooperation agreement with KU Leuven, the management of the residence is centralized under a single professional operator. This collective management model helps mitigate risks such as vacancy, rent default and property damage, resulting in a stable and predictable return for investors.
Golden times for student residences in Leuven
4.000 student rooms wanted
Studying in Leuven is popular: the city has some 43,000 students living in dorms, making it the student city with the highest dorm ratio in Belgium: no less than 80% of students live in digs. With the ever-increasing number of international students, the shortage of student rooms continues. Calculations based on current figures from Statbel, the Higher Education Agency and the Kotkompas, among others, show that today some 4,000 rooms are short in Leuven.
The monthly rent of student rooms also rose by as much as 100 euro (= 21%) over the past 5 years (source: research by Stadim ism. Kotcompass). The above market trends therefore make this metropolis the perfect climate for investors who want to bet on a profitable market segment and give future generations a boost.
Tervuur offers a carefully curated mix of accommodation options to suit every student. From rooms with shared facilities to rooms with a private bathroom and fully equipped studios, everyone can find a living space that matches their needs and preferences. The common thread throughout the project is a stylish, timeless and durable interior design that resonates with today’s student lifestyle while standing the test of time.
