“...Welcome to LACON HOUSE : discover investment success in Cambridge... ”
“... An Iconic City...”
Cambridge: An Extraordinary Wonder Experience an idylllic lifestyle Cambridge is home to the historic, world renowned University of Cambridge. This delightful city is packed full of magnificent examples of British architecture from the Mathematical bridge to the iconic Kings College Chapel. Its unique cobbled streets and historic charm make it instantly recognisable. Home to a diverse range of shops, museums, theatres, bars and restaurants; the buzz of the city centre is offset by the peaceful and relaxing swathes of green space throughout the city, along with the charming River Cam meandering through the centre. This successful city has a thriving economy with high levels of employment, making it extremely popular. Cambridge really is the perfect place to live!
Global Recognition & Diverse Economy
Making the right investment choice The success of Cambridge has proved to be resilient to fluctuations in the broader regional and national economy – a result of its strong academic reputation and diverse range of growing businesses. Cambridge real estate has delivered stable housing prices and consistently high residential rental income, cultivating a favourable investment environment and lucrative returns for owners and investors. It is one of the UK’s most durable and attractive real estate markets.
Embrace a tranquil lifestyle at Lacon House
Lacon House: an opportunity not to be missed Cambridge is the UK’s fastest growing city. As the city grows, demand for real estate in central areas has increased. The historic city centre, home to the many colleges of the University of Cambridge, has limited land available for new developments within walking distance. Lacon House is located on a rarely available, prime site in the east of the city on the popular ‘New Street’.
Be part of this globally influential city
A unique blend of history, learning and business
For centuries, Cambridge has had a world-class reputation for education, being home since 1209 to the renowned University of Cambridge. Cambridge’s iconic colleges and cobbled streets make it a unique location. Now also a leading business destination, the city lies at the heart of Europe’s largest life sciences cluster, and is the home of a vibrant technology sector crowned ‘silicon fen’.
“...World Leading Scientific Research...” Cambridge Centre of Science Hub for cutting edge developments In late 2019 the UK government announced that it will back a multi-million-pound initiative between Microsoft and the University of Cambridge to build better AI. With the constant injections of private and government funding and with its rising infrastructure Cambridge is one of the most robust and sound investment locations worldwide.
Based geographically close to London, Cambridge has been chosen by a number of global businesses for their UK and European research headquarters, including Apple, Amazon and Microsoft. The city is also home to the global headquarters of AstraZeneca, along with over 1,000 technology businesses. Cambridge is in the top 5 UK cities with the highest employment rate in the UK.

Colour & Culture, Diversity Integrated City Of Culture Cambridge’s cultural scene punches well above its weight with seven theatres, three cinemas, and a large number of museums and galleries. Why not catch a play at Cambridge’s Arts Theatre before it goes to the West End of London, or listen to a well-known band at the historic Cambridge Corn Exchange? You can view paintings by Monet, Van Gogh, Cezanne, Seurat and Constable at the city’s Fitzwilliam museum. Visit the world-famous Kings College Chapel and drop in to Xu Zhimo’s memorial garden located in Kings College grounds. After a busy day out soaking up culture in this incredible city, it’s only a short walk home to the comfort and luxury of Lacon House.
WELL CONNECTED Cambridge has excellent transport links. The highspeed rail connection transports residents to London in just 45 minutes. London Stansted Airport is just over 30 minutes away by train. Lacon House is located close to local bus links, the train station, and the city’s central transport hub.
“...Year-round Cultural Scene...”
Historic Parklands Green space is never far away in Cambridge. Midsummer Common is a short walk from Lacon House – this historic parkland has been part of Cambridge’s many open spaces for over 800 years!
Active Lifestyle Take a punt down the beautiful River Cam and follow in the footsteps of Xu Zhimo who describes Cambridge so beautifully in his well know poem ‘Taking Leave of Cambridge Again’. For something more energetic, the excellent gym at Nuffield Health Centre is on your doorstep at Lacon House. It also offers a range of beauty treatments for a postworkout treat.
“...Prime City
A stone’s throw from Lacon House
Centre Location...”
Stroll down to Espresso library for a cappuccino at one of Cambridge’s best coffee shops, or enjoy a pint of beer and a piece of history at the Cambridge Blue – a public house that first opened its doors in 1869. A special occasion? Choose from The Ivy, Trinity Restaurant or Parker’s Tavern - where restaurant critic Jay Rayner said ‘you won’t want to leave!’. Finish the evening at one of Cambridge’s nightclubs, or music venues.
Restaurants, cafés and bars: catering to every taste Cambridge has a thriving restaurant, café and bar scene. The city is packed full of independent quirky cafés, bars and fine dining restaurants. The large number of highly rated restaurants serve a range of cuisines: Italian, Greek, Indian, Thai, British, American, Italian,
Close To Everything
Chinese, Polish, French to name a few – all within easy walking distance of Lacon House.
Fantastic Shopping Experience
Those in need of a shopping fix couldn’t ask for a better location. The Grafton and Beehive Shopping Centres are a stone’s throw away from Lacon House, with the Grand Arcade an easy walk. Full of major international high-end brands, the range of shops in Cambridge rivals London’s Oxford Street. Cambridge is also home to a large number of independent shops for something a bit different. The central market sells everything from fresh fruit and vegetables, to street food, to silk scarfs. Why travel when it’s all on your doorstep?
Eating in? A diverse range of food outlets, including a Marks and Spencer food hall, are just down the road from Lacon House. If you don’t feel like leaving the luxury of your apartment you can order groceries to be delivered to your door from one of the local supermarkets. There are many independent food shops in Cambridge along with a bustling market for something made locally.

“...Lacon House A Premium Investment...”
Embrace the Lacon House Lifestyle
A leisurely day in Cambridge Make the short stroll to Lacon House’s local artisan bakery – the Norfolk Street Bakery, for some freshly baked bread, cake, or a coffee to go. Spend the day shopping – will you buy a traditional satchel, from the Cambridge Satchel Company, or invest in some designer brands such as Dolce & Gabbana, Moschino and Gucci at Giulio’s boutique? Perhaps take a rest with afternoon tea at Parker’s Tavern, overlooking the picturesque Parker’s Piece. What better way to finish the day than with a glass of champagne in the roof garden at the Varsity Hotel with a view over the night-time lights of Cambridge.
