Blackstone has added more than 1,000 beds to its UK student housing portfolio through the acquisition of two properties from Downing Students. 

IQ Student Accommodation, a Blackstone portfolio company, said it has supported Blackstone’s acquisition of two purpose-built student accommodation assets in London and Edinburgh, without disclosing any financials. 

The assets are Vega, an 841-bed property in Vauxhall, London, and The Mont, a 324-bed property located close to the Central Area of the University of Edinburgh.
