For many 17-18 year olds the end of August signals the beginning of a new chapter in their lives as they receive their A-level results and embark on their chosen paths. For students who are heading to the prestigious University of Cambridge and Anglia Ruskin University, the stylish city apartments at Kaleidoscope provide an ideal alternative to a room in university halls. Developer Crest Nicholson is offering purchasers £9,000 towards the first year university fees, resulting in students having extra funds for study materials.
Located just a few minutes walk or cycle ride away from Cambridge University Cricket Ground, Botanic Gardens, and King’s and Queen’s Colleges, Kaleidoscope is perfect for students who are keen to have a residence of their own for a more relaxed place to study. Parents can also be satisfied that, as well as investing in their children’s future, they are investing their money in a high quality home in a prime location.
Ideal for those looking to make the most out of living at the heart of this historic University City, Kaleidoscope consists of 11 architecturally unique buildings with sleek, modern exteriors. Two bedroom properties are currently available to buy in the Magenta building of the development and offer classic and stylish interiors in a spacious open plan living space with many offering two bathrooms including an en-suite. All apartments also offer a balcony, with views across either the city of Cambridge or the development’s landscaped communal areas.
One purchaser, mature student Dr Preece said: “As a student, I am away for significant periods of time during the holidays and the fact that I can simply ‘lock up and leave’ my apartment without any worry, gives me great peace of mind. Both my wife and I are delighted we bought at Kaleidoscope. Not only is it perfect whilst I’m studying, we are very confident that, when the time comes to move on, we won’t have any difficulties selling as homes such as this are in high demand, particularly in a sought-after city like Cambridge.”
Annette Cole Sales and Marketing Director at Crest Nicholson Eastern comments: “Kaleidoscope is ideal for students in Cambridge, both in its stylish design and central city location. We know that the jump from A-Levels to University can be daunting for many people and that halls accommodation isn’t ideal for everyone. To reward students’ success at being accepted at either Cambridge University or Anglia Ruskin University and to help with a smooth transition, Crest Nicholson is helping to pay £9,000 towards first year fees, freeing up some money for other student activities!”
Cambridge Railway Station is just five minutes’ walk from the scheme and easily and provides a non-stop service to London Kings Cross in just 45 minutes. Alternatively, the M11 is just six miles away providing a swift route to Stansted Airport and the motorway network beyond. The new guided bus route will come past the development and offers quick and easy access to both the city centre and the train station in a matter of minutes.
Prices at Kaleidoscope start from £299,500 for a two bedroom, ground floor apartment. For further information please contact the marketing suite on 0870 757 8186 or visit www.kaleidoscopecambridge.com
