UK: Gravity, a London based coliving and PRS brand, has announced the launch of its fifth property.
The company, which says it is focused on community, flexibility, wellbeing and professional growth, is launching Gravity Royal Heights, a newly developed property featuring 53 units in Reading town centre. The units comprise studio, one- and two-bedroom apartments as well as four penthouse apartments with views over the historic market town.
Each apartment has been designed with an open-planned, contemporary style, and comes fully furnished with high quality furnishings and built-in, modern, high-spec appliances including a Siemens washing machine, dishwasher, fridge freezer and electric hobs/oven.
Uutility bills are included in the monthly rent which starts from £1,100. Every member at Reading will also have their own login to the Gravity App where they’ll find 24/7 wellbeing support, access to key Gravity contacts and on-demand cleaning services.
Members will also have access to Gravity’s partner network as well as more than 700 discounts. They can also connect to the Gravity community of more than 200 live-in members across four existing London properties and more than 300 social members.
Reading has become one of the UK’s technology hubs, and is home to brands including Visa, Ericsson, Huawei, Oracle and Virgin Media.
Riccardo Tessaro, co-founder and CEO of Gravity, said: “Technology is a big part of our DNA at Gravity which is why we want to be where tech is thriving. It’s exactly why we’ve come here. As more and more companies base themselves out of Reading, there are some exciting opportunities to work with developments such as Green Park Business Park and Thames Valley Park which we know we can provide a lot of support to.”
Susanna Rock, co-founder and CIO, added: “We want to introduce Reading to a new way to live. At Gravity, we’re much more than just rental accommodation. With a community focussed approach that has multiple layers to it, we’re the ideal living solution for those moving into the area. Especially for those who need to relocate for work. When you’re new to an area, it can be quite daunting. But with Gravity, we really focus on creating a community that is ready to both welcome and support as much as they can.”
Gravity Royal Heights is the first in a two-phase development plan. With further properties to be added, the development will total over 90 units on completion.
