WELCOME TO A PLACE OF NATURAL HARMONY

Design is at the heart of Ninewells. 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.

THE VISION The Ninewells team has worked closely with awardwinning 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.
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.

A PLACE AT ONE WITH NATURE 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.
6/7
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 ONE WITH 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.
12/13
A PLACE AT ONE WITH ART 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 largescale, 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
Confluence 2015 Granite and water
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 bowllike 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.”
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 PLACE AT ONE WITH 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.

ICONIC CAMBRIDGE
INNOVATIVE CAMBRIDGE
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 technologybased 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. Microsoft, Station Road

STYLISH CAMBRIDGE APPETISING CAMBRIDGE 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.
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 20thcentury 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. The Shack at Gog Magog Farm shop

EDUCATED CAMBRIDGE 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.
