Sidney Sussex, Chesterford Research Park, Little Chesterford, Cambridge, CB10 1XL

Description
Currently under construction and due for completion in Spring 2025, the Sidney Sussex Building will comprise 55,855 sq ft GIA of laboratory / write up space over three floors, split into 10 fully fitted suites.

The specification is designed to meet BREEAM Excellent standard and is intended to be a fossil free run building.

Chesterford Research Park offers advanced laboratory and office space set within 250 acres of idyllic parkland near Cambridge – modern, dynamic, flexible facilities perfectly appointed for biotechnology, pharmaceutical and technology R&D companies of all sizes.

The Park is being developed as a low density scheme, which means that the natural environment, arboretum and wide-open spaces play a crucial role alongside the cutting-edge research facilities. Not only that, but the purpose-built hub building, The Nucleus, at the heart of the Park provides all the facilities required to make working life simple, enjoyable and rewarding - as well as fostering collaboration between the Park’s life science community as they meet and interact here.

The security of the site is also a high priority - manned patrols operate across the Park 24/7, in addition to front Gatehouse security and ANPR technology. Unobtrusive but robust measures to give occupiers peace of mind.

Location
Chesterford Research Park is ideally located within touching distance of Cambridge. The Park’s rural, yet convenient setting means you can concentrate on delivering ground breaking research without the distraction and congestion of urban locations.
