Hawkey Road forms part of the sought-after Aura development off Long Road in Trumpington, a thriving and well-connected part of Cambridge that retains a strong sense of community.

The location is exceptionally convenient for Addenbrooke’s Hospital and the Biomedical Campus, with excellent access into the city centre, out to the M11, or across the city via car, bus, guided bus, or one of several dedicated cycle routes. Cambridge railway station is also easily reached along the guided busway cycle path, avoiding car traffic entirely.

Families are well served with three primary schools and a modern secondary school built in 2016 with outstanding sporting facilities. Many of Cambridge’s leading independent schools are also within easy cycling distance. Everyday amenities include a Waitrose, Sainsbury’s Local, GP surgery, pharmacy, post office, barber, library, restaurants, and pubs.

For outdoor pursuits, Trumpington Meadows Nature Reserve links through to Byron’s Pool and Grantchester, while a second country park lies between Trumpington and the Biomedical Campus. A network of bridleways and footpaths offers access out into the countryside towards Harston, Haslingfield, Barton, and Grantchester.
