Yugo expands its student presence in Poland with two high quality properties in Warsaw 

Yugo will operate SHED Sky Living and SHED Campus Living in Warsaw on behalf of 1 Asset Management ahead of the autumn term.

4 March 2025 - Yugo, the first global student housing brand and operator, has announced plans to operate two new living spaces in Poland from September this year on behalf of 1 Asset Management.

SHED Sky Living and SHED Campus Living which are due to open in early autumn, and will collectively deliver 1,100 student beds in Warsaw - a thriving city which is home to over 240,000 students.

Both properties have impressive views and easy access links to the centre of the city.

This adventurous move takes Yugo’s growing portfolio in Poland to over 1,800 beds, making the global student housing brand and operator increasingly influential in Central Europe.

SHED Sky Living represents the exciting transformation of a former bank headquarters in Ochota. Ideally situated near the Medical University of Warsaw and the main campuses of Warsaw University, the property offers a prime location for students.
SHED Campus Living, located in the Mokotów district, is a purpose-built residence within walking distance of the Służew campus of the University of Warsaw and Lazarski University, one of Poland’s highest-ranked private institutions.
Local and international students will enjoy quality facilities including large work & study spaces, gaming areas, cinema rooms, gyms, fully equipped kitchens and laundries.

Yugo will run the properties on behalf of 1 Asset Management, continuing a successful partnership between the two brands which initially kicked off in Krakow, where Yugo operates another popular Shed Living property.

Robin Moorcroft, Senior Vice President, Commercial at Yugo, said:

''We pride ourselves on operating high quality student spaces across multiple countries worldwide. SHED Sky Living and SHED Campus Living will offer students vibrant, supportive living experiences in a compelling city with convenient transport links.

“We look forward to working with our partners at 1 Asset Management whilst supporting students during their educational journeys.”

Matas Mockeliūnas, Partner of Student Housing Fund at 1 Asset Management, said:

"We chose Yugo because we see them as the strongest player in the market. Our partnership in the Krakow property adds value to the entire project—enhancing the experience for tenants by meeting the evolving needs of students and young professionals, while also delivering asset value growth for investors. We are striving to create the same synergy in our Warsaw projects as well."

Since 2022, Yugo’s leading management strategy has seen rapid growth in its global portfolio and now includes partnership agreements with over 60 clients. It operates over 220 student living spaces in 14 countries delivering 100,000 beds.
