About this home

Positioned on the top floor of a modern development on the south side of Cambridge, this one-bedroom apartment offers well-balanced accommodation with a notably open outlook and the practical advantage of lift access. The setting is particularly well suited to those connected with Addenbrooke’s Hospital and the Biomedical Campus, while remaining within straightforward reach of the city centre and mainline station.

The apartment is arranged around a central hall with useful storage, leading through to a generous open plan kitchen and living space. This room is defined by good natural light from deep glazed windows and full-height doors opening onto a fully enclosed winter balcony, extending the usable living area throughout the year. The kitchen is set to one side, fitted with contemporary cabinetry and integrated appliances, allowing for clear separation between cooking and living without compromising the sense of space. The bedroom is a comfortable double with fitted wardrobes, offering practical storage without encroaching on floor area. The bathroom is simply finished with a full suite including bath and overhead shower.

The enclosed balcony is a particularly useful addition, providing a sheltered seating area with elevated views across the surrounding development and towards open green space beyond. The property also benefits from an allocated parking space and secure cycle storage, both of which are valuable in this location.

986 Year Lease - The service charge is £2518.17 pa. It is reviewed annually and increases in line with RPI. The ground is rent is £375 pa, reviewed every 10 years and increases in line with RPI.

Trumpington is a thriving part of Cambridge that still retains a strong village identity and sense of community. It is exceptionally well placed for Addenbrooke’s Hospital, the Biomedical Campus, the M11 and the city centre, with excellent links by car, bus, guided busway, purpose-built cycle routes and on foot.

Cambridge South station, which opened in June 2026 beside the Biomedical Campus, provides direct rail connections to London in just under an hour, as well as service to Stansted and Gatwick airports, materially improving the area's wider connectivity. Cambridge mainline station also remains readily accessible via the guided busway cycle route, avoiding city traffic.

Local amenities include restaurants, pubs, shops, a post office, barber, GP surgery, pharmacy, library and community centre, together with a Waitrose supermarket and a Sainsbury’s Local.

Trumpington Meadows Nature Reserve links the village to Byron’s Pool and Grantchester, with further country parkland between Trumpington and Addenbrooke’s. Numerous footpaths and bridleways lead out towards Harston, Haslingfield, Barton and Grantchester.
