Studious and stately, the prestigious university is the beating heart of Cambridge. Academics lounge on the college greens and students punt down the River Cam, but there's much more to this town than its scholarly roots. Cosy coffee shops, lively pubs, mouth-watering eateries and local shops selling everything from rare books to luxury fashions are a dime a dozen along the cobbled lanes. This ultra-modern apartment lies northwest of the bustling centre in the cool urban district of Eddington, just a ten-minute taxi, bike or bus ride away from the historic sights. Mid-century style and high-end design are front-and-centre here – sleek living spaces, floor-to-ceiling windows, Chromecast TVs, rainfall showers and a welcome basket full of goodies are just a few of the perks. The kitchen is packed with cooking gear and the comfy living area is the perfect spot to unwind in the evenings with a glass of wine. Better yet, take the relaxing alfresco on the private outdoor terrace before snuggling up in the sumptuous beds for some shut-eye. What really makes this place sing, however, are the communal spaces. From the high-tech co-working space and on-site restaurant to the small workout studio and rooftop terrace, there's plenty... of shared spots where you can study, decompress, or simply hang out in style.

About Cambridge
Punting on the River Cam, dodging students as you cycle along historic lanes, and keeping off the pristine college lawns – a visit to Cambridge is like stepping into the pages of a book.

Look out in particular for the...
