There's a 5 roomed house, so I wish to build the student accommodation as the use Zone is Residential 3 and it is less than 5 minutes from a TVT College. The house could be used for additional accommodation/Commune or be put down if there's a need. The start of project will depend on availability of funds. I have to present the Building plan and cost of building in order to qualify for funding so maybe 3 or more months.
