The Oaks is a redevelopment of an existing building, to achieve a purpose-built student accommodation site.

The project is planned to deliver 382 units, with an optimum ratio of studios and en-suite cluster rooms to maximise the sites potential and meet the needs of the local student population whilst retaining future flexibility.

The Oaks is situated within the Westwood Business Park, Coventry. The University of Warwick is located approximately 1.1 km (0.7 miles) to the south-east of the site. Immediately to the north of the site is a leisure centre and associated playing fields, and open space. To the west of the site are further employment and business uses with an area of residential to the south.

The project comprises the demolition of the existing commercial building on the site, and the construction of a new purpose-built student accommodation building comprising of a 5-floor development at the west side of the site, decreasing to 4 floors with reduced massing and ‘terraced’ house appearance at the east of the site due to the nearby neighbouring properties. As existing, the site comprises a single 2-storey office block with associated parking.
