***** location *****

📍 Located in a new residential area east of Cambridge city centre (~3.5 miles) consisting of high-specification new homes, apartments and public green spaces in a safe neighbourhood.

🚇 12 min. To Cambridge Train Station.

🛒 5 min. Walk to the local off-license, 15 mins to Tesco Express. 3 min. Drive to Tesco Extra Supermarket and 7 min. To Sainsbury's. Planing permission has also been received for a new Waitrose down the road.

🚲 If you cycle to work it's 7 mins to Arm, 10 mins to Addenbrooke's and 15 mins to AstraZeneca

🚏 Bus stop is a few steps away from the house and (1) goes directly to the railway station and Cambridge city centre. It typically runs every 15 mins throughout the day.

P. S. Although we are next to a temporary city airport, it is strictly for private flights only, not commercial, and you rarely see or hear anything apart from occasional flights on weekends. Marshall also confirmed recently that the site is moving to Bedfordshire (Cranfield).
