East Anglian-based estate agent, Cheffins, is launching The Elms, a collection of contemporary one and two-bedroom apartments in St Ives, Cambridgeshire.
Developed by B Property, a Cambridge-based property company, The Elms is an outstanding new scheme of only eight apartments, which will go on sale to the public on 24th June 2023.
Positioned directly between St Ives’ picturesque town centre and the guided busway, The Elms is ideally located for access to both St Ives and Cambridge.
Every apartment at The Elms has been thoughtfully designed and planned with modern living in mind. The versatile and free-flowing living areas are fitted with high specification finishes throughout, with Bosch appliances in the kitchens and luxury fittings in the bathrooms. With Cat 6 cabling to all living spaces, delivering ultra-fast full fibre broadband each apartment is ideally set up for homeworking, streaming and gaming. Outside, the apartments benefit from an allocated parking space and bike parking.
The crowning glory of the scheme are the two-bedroom penthouse apartments, which come with ensuite bathrooms to the main bedroom and views of the surrounding lakes.
B Property has also created a show home at The Elms, which will give potential purchasers an idea of how their future property could look. One of the ground floor one-bedroom apartments has been dressed by the award-winning home staging and design company, K3 Interiors.
The Elms has been designed with sustainability in mind, with well-insulated apartments all fitted with high efficiency boilers, with a selection of apartments achieving a B rated EPC, ensuring lower bills for residents, and qualifying for “Green Mortgage” criteria.
Located only 21 minutes from the Cambridge Science Park on the guided bus route, two miles from the A14 and four minutes to Waitrose on foot, The Elms is perfectly situated for young professionals looking to make the most of the employment opportunities in Cambridge and the surrounding area.
St Ives is a pretty and bustling market town set on the River Great Ouse and known for its regular farmers’ market. Leisure opportunities in the town include the One Leisure fitness centre, as well as opportunities for sailing, cycling, golf, rowing and more.
Christina Green, Associate, Cheffins New Homes comments:
“We are delighted to be working with B Property on their development at The Elms. Designed with contemporary living in mind, these apartments are perfect for first time buyers, young professionals or investors looking for a generous yield. Importantly, as a selection of the apartments have an EPC rating of B, buyers here can benefit from the ‘green’ mortgage deals currently in the market as well as lower utility bills, which is a significant advantage in the current climate. The properties have all been finished to a high standard, and we expect to see significant interest in the scheme when it launches to the public.”
Sarah Austin from B Property comments:
“St Ives is one of our favourite towns in Cambridgeshire with its excellent local facilities, cafe culture and links to Cambridge. The Elms presented us with the opportunity to develop spacious, high-quality apartments for people to call home in this fantastic market town.”
All of the properties will benefit from a 10-year new homes warranty.
The Elms will be completed in July 2023. Prices start from £210,000 for a one-bedroom property.
