Seven Acres, Cambridge

Seven Acres is a new community of Scandinavian-style homes in Trumpington, Cambridge.

Peace and quiet, 15 minutes from Cambridge

Our homes at Seven Acres are surrounded by farmland and swathes of open space. There’s the village green, pocket parks and landscaping at Seven Acres itself. Just across the road is a country park, recreation facilities and central square. And yet it's still located within the city limits, just 15 minutes from Cambridge city centre on the new guided bus.

Seven Acres is all about smart design, sustainable living and sociable community. Our architects have developed striking, contemporary townhouses and apartments whose air and light, space and freedom offer a sense of luxury as well as a real connection to life beyond the front door.

At the heart of things, on the village green, is our Design Centre – Seven Acres’ future community centre, the hub of communal life here. There are other green spaces where the kids can play, plus fruit trees, artworks, and even areas for a spot of communal gardening.

Each property at Seven Acres balances modern design with traditional, local materials. Complementing the exterior walls built of local brick is natural timber cladding, and outside every house is our trademark wooden bench – the perfect place to remove boots or enjoy the day.

Inside our homes, the high ceilings and generous room dimensions make a world of difference. Storage is beautifully built-in to keep the clutter out of sight and keep a lid on recycling facilities.  Super-insulation and triple-glazing throughout keep heat in, reduce energy bills and make Seven Acres homes nearly 25% more energy-efficient than other new-build homes in the UK.
