Central Place is the brand new identity of Sheffield’s central student village, formally known as Sheffield 2. The ideal place for all students to live throughout their time at university, Central Place is split into five blocks, all with their own distinct character, facilities and social spaces. Central Place lies at the heart of the student-village, ideal for 1st and 2nd-year students looking to meet new people.

Voted 5* on Student Crowd as Best for Social Experience and Best Value for Money, Central Place (previously Sheffield 2) provides the ideal living experience for anyone studying at University of Sheffield or Sheffield Hallam.

With a local supermarket right on your doorstep and both universities being within walking distance, including the popular student hang out area, West Street, it’s the perfect place to make the most of your time at uni.

All students living with Student Roost will benefit from high speed WiFi, weekly social events calendar and a friendly, safe space to call home. Staff are onsite 24/7, so you've always got a friendly point of contact.
