For house-hunters looking for a home to accommodate their new lifestyle, Berkeley’s brand-new Camberley development Lumina has recently unveiled a selection of exclusive resident facilities, designed to improve residents’ wellbeing and keep their fitness goals on track. From a private gym offering the ideal space to continue exercising, to a fantastic shared garden perfect for enjoying the sights and sounds of the scenic Surrey location – buyers will find they have everything they need for an all-inclusive lifestyle all just moments from home.
Situated in the centre of Camberley conveniently placed just across the road from Camberley Train Station, Lumina comprises a luxury collection of Manhattan, one and two bedroom apartments.

These facilities ensure Lumina is the ultimate place to live, work and play; you can work out in the fitness suite before setting up the work laptop in the exclusive business lounge, and then cosy up to watch a film in the private screening room in the evening. This, coupled with the convenience of the train station and town centre on the doorstep, makes the development the ideal place for busy professionals to call home.”
