Ninewells is a beautifully designed new neighbourhood for Cambridge.
Located only 2.4 miles from the city centre, Ninewells is a conveniently
positioned community. Woven into its natural surroundings, it creates an
enviable place to live; one where well-being and a balanced way of life has
been considered.

Discover Ninewells – a stunning collection of 162
contemporary, high-specification family homes and
apartments in a beautiful natural environment, created
around panoramic views of the Gog Magog Downs.
Design is at the heart of these homes. It shines through
architecture that is inspired by its location on the
southern fringe of Cambridge, as it blends into rolling
countryside. Design shapes the Ninewells landscape;
green spaces, allotments, attenuation ponds and
outdoor artwork nurture a deep-rooted bond between
people and nature. Design helps to build the Ninewells
community; it’s a safe and sustainable place where
families flourish and people interact in harmony. And
design makes the Ninewells way of life; it’s a place
that promotes health and well-being through outdoor
pursuits, supports your working life and offers easy
access to the vibrant city centre; making these the
perfect new homes.

THE VISION
A soft edge has been created with interlocking ‘green fingers’ of landscape and buildings.
Views up to the Gog Magog Downs‘Green Fingers’ Concept Illustration
The architecture is also inspired by its location.
Externally, styles and materials make reference to local
buildings, and internally the optimisation of space,
views and natural light has been the guiding principle.
As a modern, forward-looking community, Ninewells
puts sustainability high on the agenda. All homes
are designed with energy efficiency in mind and to
achieve levels 3 or 4 on the Government’s Code for
Sustainable Homes standard by incorporating energy
saving features such as well insulated cavity walls and
roofs; large windows to maximise solar gain, highly
efficient boilers and water efficient sanitary ware, taps
and showers. Zoned heating and low energy lighting
plus A+ rated appliances are also used, allowing you
to reduce your energy consumption. What’s more, the
provision of footpaths and cycle paths encourages you
to leave your car at home, presenting you with a simple
way to improve your carbon footprint.
The Ninewells team has worked closely with award-
winning architects PRP, to develop a future-focused
plan for both people and place. In its overall vision,
Ninewells is designed to embrace and protect the
positive features of the landscape and local identity.
At the heart of this vision is the ‘green fingers’ concept:
a series of green spaces that make a connection with
the countryside and act as viewing corridors to the
Gog Magog Downs. As well as providing an inspiring
backdrop to everyday life, the resulting green areas
encourage a healthy outdoor lifestyle in a safe, open
space.
Landscaping is rich and diverse and enhances the
recreational aspect of living here. It is an intrinsic part
of the Ninewells story. Areas of grass and wildflowers
blend seamlessly with the countryside while other areas
have a visual relationship with the urban environment.
Another key feature is water; attenuation ponds and
swales have been incorporated into the landscaping
and their water levels are managed by an ingenious
surface drainage system.

Ninewells life is as much about the natural world as it
is about the connection with the city. With avenues,
footpaths, green spaces plus the wet and dry attenuation
ponds, the community‘s environment is a picturesque
natural playground. For exploration, relaxation, picnic
making or nature watching, it’s a wonderful family
environment to enjoy in peace and safety on your
doorstep, the views to the open fields and hills beyond
making your countryside location ever apparent.
And did you know that Ninewells takes its name from a
local nature reserve? Nine Wells, a historically important
site containing several chalk springs that formed the
source of the Hobson Conduit, once provided Cambridge
with its drinking water.
The landscaped environment, with its varied planting,
provides the community with a strong sense of its
natural context. The existing boundary hedge is a
designated City wildlife corridor and you can further
develop your relationship with nature by sowing,
tending and harvesting fresh vegetables in the
Ninewells allotments.*
It’s the perfect balance between the built and natural
environment that defines the very spirit of Ninewells.
Thoughtfully designed, the verdant communal areas
serve many purposes and bring benefit to everyone.
It’s an inspirational space to develop a fuller and
healthier lifestyle. It’s your running track, it’s your yoga
space, it’s your meeting place or it’s your open-air
living room.
* Allotments at Ninewells will be available for rent from
Cambridge City Council.

8/9
Space and light are two of the vital qualities that make
Ninewells such an uplifting place to live. The houses are
separated by wide open vistas and public areas are linked by
streets, footpaths and cycle lanes, all inviting you to make the
most of the outdoor world. The spacious homes also inspire
a sense of limitless room and freedom. Maximised glazing
makes for daylight-flooded spaces while courtyard gardens,
roof terraces and balconies create a seamless connection with
the outside.

A PLACE AT ONEWITH WORK
As a place that offers a fully rounded lifestyle, Ninewells
looks after its working community. The number of people
working from home is continually growing and we have
responded to this global trend by designing homes with
the space for creating a home office, all with access to
super-fast broadband. Ninewells is also conveniently
placed for a swift commute into Cambridge, with good
road access, a range of bus links and excellent cycle routes.
Addenbrooke’s Hospital and the Bio-Medical Campus are a
short walk from home and for those that work in London,
Cambridge station is just a short drive or cycle ride away,
and the regular train service to King’s Cross takes under
an hour.

A PLACEAT ONEWITH ART
Peter Randall-Page
Peter Randall-Page creates large-scale sculptures
that embrace natural phenomena and express
the idea of growth. His work is internationally
acclaimed and pieces can be seen in many urban
and rural locations throughout the UK, as well as
the Tate Gallery and the British Museum.
Peter’s art at Ninewells focuses on the natural flow
of spring water around the terrain. Inspired by
river systems and deltas, his huge granite bowl-
like sculpture features an intricate system of
vein-like gullies or ‘rills’. It will be embedded into
one of Ninewells’ two attenuation ponds creating
a stunning centre piece in the landscape.
“My role as a sculptor will be to integrate my artwork into the fabric of the new landscape – making a positive virtue of the necessity to manage surface water in times of high rainfall.”
To further entwine Ninewells and its community with
the natural and historical context of the location,
artists Peter Randall-Page and Laura Ellen Bacon
are working with the design team and the local
community to create original public artworks that
enrich the environment.
Both artists utilise natural materials to create large-
scale, organic-looking sculptures that celebrate
nature and connect with their context. As well as
creating visual interest with a magical quality, each
piece will tell a story about the intrinsic natural
aspects of the area and help to engage people with
their surroundings.
Laura Ellen Bacon
Laura Ellen Bacon is well known for her woven
sculptures that integrate with the natural and built
world. They can be found gracing numerous venues,
from Chatsworth House to The Saatchi Gallery.
Laura’s work at Ninewells is two-fold.
The first element, made with the help of the local
community, is a series of delicate, woven willow
artworks that knit into the hedgerow that runs
along the bottom of Ninewells. The second is a
much larger work, sited in the open public space.
This piece comprises a curvaceous pair of natural
forms that appear to grow either side of one of the
pathways.
“The work should feel like an intriguing combination of having been both windswept and sculptured by nature but also very clearly shaped by hand and expertise – suggesting human design in collaboration with the elements.”

A PLACEAT ONEWITH CAMBRIDGE
In Cambridge ancient seats of academia sit side by side with
centres of digital innovation; artisan food markets vie for your
custom with Michelin Star restaurants and peaceful, riverside
afternoons can be followed by buzzing, social evenings. Living
at Ninewells, you’ll be close enough to feel the beat of the
city’s vibrant heart and benefit from its rich diversity.
18/19
As the home of the University of Cambridge,
the city is widely known as a hallowed seat of
learning. Perhaps it’s this academic environment,
or the fact that cycling is the preferred mode of
transport, but the place is certainly imbued with a
genteel air. Characterised by historic architecture,
pedestrianised streets, open-air markets,
picturesque green spaces and lazy riverside
pastimes, Cambridge is truly a beautiful city in
which to live and work.
Cambridge, today, is a hotbed of innovation. It’s a
phenomenon that’s developed organically, but now the
city and surrounding area, dubbed Silicon Fen, is home
to an established cluster of science and technology-
based businesses. Focusing on software, electronics,
pharmaceuticals and biotechnology, the area is one of the
most important technology centres in Europe. Companies
like Apple, Amazon, ARM, AstraZeneca, Google, Microsoft,
Toshiba and Spotify have all set up camp here. Of course, as
a world leader in pioneering research and providing a ready
source of graduates, the University is at the heart of it all.

STYLISHCAMBRIDGE
You don’t have to look far to find a
Cambridge that’s cosmopolitan and creative.
If shopping is your craving, the historic
centre is a delicious huddle of independent
retailers and artisan makers. And don’t
forget the Market Square for daily, fresh local
produce or the inspiring collections of 20th-
century art at Kettle’s Yard. If you’re looking
for big name brands, then head to the Grand
Arcade and discover the likes of John Lewis,
Apple, The White Company, Ted Baker and
Links of London.
If the number of restaurants is a measure of
Cambridge folk’s passion for food, they must
be in love. From simple fare to fine dining, from
chefs championing local produce to exotic
international cuisines, there’s good food to
suit every taste and mood. There are even two
establishments holding Michelin Stars. But
let’s not forget the many coffee shops, cafés,
tea rooms, patisseries, crêperies, bakers and
delicatessens. Cambridge also has a passion for
the outdoors which means you’ll find diners on
rooftops, pavements and of course, by the river.
Look further afield, as far as the surrounding
villages, and you’re likely to unearth some of the
finest eateries in the region. Those looking for
the freshest local produce will find the best at
the Gog Magog Farm Shop, which is just down
the road from Ninewells. This delightful local
institution features a charming café and is home
to The Shack, serving up some of Cambridge’s
best street food and live music.

The city is known globally as the home of the University
of Cambridge, an iconic institution, founded in 1209 and
regarded as one of the top universities in the world.
Cambridge’s other seat of further education is Anglia
Ruskin University. Together the two campuses are
responsible for broadening the minds of around 30,000
students a year. But the academic excellence doesn’t rest
there. From primary schools to further education colleges,
Cambridgeshire boasts numerous acclaimed learning
establishments for its younger students too.

CONNECTEDCAMBRIDGE

area’s best schools, as well as its leisure, recreation and healthcare
facilities. Access to such amenities is essential to create a
