The property builds on the success of The Headline, which was constructed on the grounds of the former Yorkshire Post building.
Grainger’s Pin Yard features a range of amenities including a resident’s lounge, co-working space, gym, outdoor courtyard and events space, all of which are included within the rent.
The resident’s lounge and co-working amenity spaces have also been designed to champion the heritage of the Holbeck Urban Village, while including sustainability features such as Wi-Fi and smart-phone charging points in the co-working spaces powered by roof solar panels.
Pin Yard also has an inhouse resident services team, onsite handy person and a programme of social activities has been set up to help build the community spirit, from cooking with chefs, to cocktail nights, to yoga and HIIT classes.
Helen Gordon, chief executive at Grainger, said: “Leeds is a great city that continues to attract and retain an influx of professionals and families, creating a strong demand for professionally managed, high rental homes.
“Pin Yard provides an excellent solution for those looking for a lovely home with additional amenities in the creative centre of Leeds.
“At Grainger we offer residents more than just an apartment – a home, a hassle-free rental experience, and the opportunity to be part of a thriving new community.
“We are really looking forward to launching Pin Yard and seeing our residents settle into their new homes, bringing new life to the neighbourhood.”
