Opened in 2019, The Toybox consists of approximately fourteen floors with around 290 student rooms and follows a modern purpose-built student accommodation design style. The development offers both ensuite and studio room types to suit different living preferences. Studio apartments include private bathrooms and kitchens, making them ideal for students who prefer more independent living, while ensuite rooms provide private bathrooms alongside shared kitchen and lounge spaces that are typically shared with only two other flatmates, creating a more comfortable and less crowded communal environment. Interiors throughout the building are modern and minimalist, designed to support comfortable long-term student living.
