HONG KONG, 15 May, 2023 – Hong Kong property buyers will have the first opportunity to invest in a collection of prestigious new homes in Cambridge (UK), a vibrant city that has established itself as one of the UK locations of choice among Chinese nationals. Fusion at Knights Park is a development of stylish apartments in an exciting new community created by multi-award-winning housebuilder The Hill Group. Located in Eddington, the homes reside in a vibrant new neighbourhood conceived by the world-famous University of Cambridge. The homes will be launched for sale off-plan to buyers in Hong Kong at a showcase event taking place on 20th and 21st May at the Landmark Mandarin Oriental Hotel.

Already a sought-after neighbourhood following earlier highly successful phases, Knights Park is one of Cambridge’s most exciting new destinations. It has won many awards for its high-quality design and green credentials and benefits from a convenient location just a short distance from Cambridge city centre. The city remains a strong investment opportunity where the booming science and technology sectors continue to boost jobs and demand for housing.

Rebecca Littler, Group Sales and Marketing Director at Hill Group comments: "Cambridge is a firm favourite among Chinese buyers, offering a unique combination of rich heritage, a thriving economy and world-class education. Knights Park is rapidly emerging as one of Cambridge’s most desirable developments, set within a thriving new neighbourhood with a selection of impressive amenities while enjoying easy access to everything this prestigious city has to offer. Hill is pleased to offer property buyers in Hong Kong the opportunity to be the first to purchase off-plan at Fusion and reserve their apartment of choice. We anticipate strong demand due to the success of previous phases."

Fusion at Knights Park offers 64 spacious, contemporary apartments in a mix of one, two, and three-bedroom layouts, ready to move into from spring 2025. Each home has its own private outdoor space in the form of a balcony or terrace, as well as one dedicated parking space and access to central communal gardens. Interiors feature a high-quality specification, generous open-plan living spaces and exceptional standards of energy efficiency, representing modern city living at its finest.

The homes come fully fitted with the outstanding specification that Hill is known for including stylish matt grey kitchen units, high-quality integrated appliances, Amtico flooring, and sophisticated bathroom suites complete with Hansgrohe fittings. A comprehensive range of innovative eco-attributes has been implemented at Knights Park, making it one of the most sustainable residential developments in the UK. Impressively built to the Code for Sustainable Homes Level 5 and Lifetime Homes Standard, every home has been designed to minimise residents’ carbon footprint and reduce energy bills. Temperature-efficient triple glazing ensures homes are cool in the summer and warm in the winter, whilst solar panels create eco-friendly electricity and smart meters allow residents to monitor their energy usage. Noteworthy attributes include a district energy centre providing instant heat and hot water to each property, reducing energy waste and CO2 emissions. The development houses one of the UK’s largest rainwater recycling systems as well as an underground refuse and recycling centre, removing the need for unsightly household wheelie bins.

Inspired by Cambridge’s rich history and leafy surroundings, Knights Park forms part of Eddington, a major new neighbourhood conceived by the University of Cambridge. It incorporates extensive areas of green open space, including 123 acres of meadows, parkland, landscaping, and public space. It also includes a wide range of amenities that will allow the new community to thrive including a new Hyatt Centric and Turing Locke hotel, Ofsted rated ‘Outstanding’ University of Cambridge Primary School & Nursery, shops and cafés, a market square, a community centre, and sports facilities. A strong and welcoming sense of community is active at Knights Park, with people coming together from the UK and across the globe to live in this exciting new district.

Just three kilometres from Knights Park, the centre of Cambridge is known for its historic University architecture and the picturesque River Cam, but it is also a hub for shopping and leisure with an excellent range of shops, bars, restaurants, and cultural attractions. Its academic institutions are first-class, and the renowned university is consistently ranked among the world’s best, attracting top students from around the globe. Schools are also excellent, including the on-site University of Cambridge Primary School, making the city a popular choice for families. Cambridge is a world-leading biotech hub and home to many international high-tech science, biochemical, and technology companies such as Apple, Astra Zeneca, and Cambridge Biomedical campus.

Knights Park benefits from excellent transport connections for international travellers. Stansted Airport is just 30 minutes by train from Cambridge, while Heathrow Airport is an hour and a half away by car. Cycleways and footpaths make it easy to get around by bicycle or on foot, while bus services are also frequent and reliable. It takes just over ten minutes to reach the city centre and 18 minutes to get to Cambridge Railway Station. Trains from Cambridge into Central London take less than an hour.

Prices for properties at Fusion at Knights Park start from £414,950 for a one-bedroom apartment.
