Timberworks is made up of a collection of one and two bedroom apartments and two, three and four bedroom houses. Designed around a 0.72 acre central park that extends the full length of the development, residents here have access to greenspace on their own doorstep. Featuring a variety of public art created by local Cambridge artists, this space will offer more than expected. A range of landscaping has been incorporated which will create a serene haven where residents can meet with neighbours or friends; as well as helping to encourage wildlife and filter the air.
A short walk from the eclectic Mill Road, Timberworks is perfectly positioned for residents to access an array of independent delis, cafes, shops and boutiques as well as community groups.

Rebecca Littler, Group Sales and Marketing Director at Hill comments: “The past year has highlighted how important fresh air and access to greenspaces is to our health and wellbeing. Stepping outside for a 30-minute walk is a great way to blow away the cobwebs, and at Timberworks we have incorporated a central park that not only provides a great outlook, but also offers residents with a great space to sit and catch up with friends or family, meet new neighbours and appreciate some of Cambridge’s best artists. With limited time to benefit from the current stamp duty holiday, we urge interested parties to book a viewing.”
