26 Highsett, Cambridge

Highsett is an award winning development of apartments and townhouses designed by Eric Lyons and built by Span Developments with work commencing in 1959. The modernist concept enabled light to flow through the apartments giving the illusion of each floor 'floating' and promoting lightness of design.This iconic scheme is set within beautifully landscaped gardens which retain the majestic trees and rolling lawns of the Victorian villas which once stood on the site. The historic core of the city is easily reached by foot or bicycle and a fine array of artisan shops, bakeries and eateries are all close by.
