Why invest in Cambridge real estate?
The beautiful and prestigious university city of Cambridge is home to a diverse and thriving economy, bolstered by world-leading innovation in life sciences, tech, AI, and biotech. Not forgetting its reputation for academic excellence and knowledge intensive industries – making it a magnet for global talent and ongoing international investment.
The city is situated within the UK’s ‘Golden Triangle’ of innovation and home to a life sciences sector that contributes billions to the UK economy. This – combined with regular regeneration projects, sustained employment growth, and one of Europe’s largest concentrations of high-tech companies – makes Cambridge’s commercial property landscape a thrilling area for investment.
Navigating the Cambridge commercial property landscape
Cambridge’s commercial property scene reflects the city’s reputation as a UK hub of research and innovation. There’s currently an unprecedented demand for laboratory space, for example, as well as an increasing need for offices.
Lucrative opportunities include the repurposing of old office space, while challenges include planning considerations around design-appropriateness and the impact on heritage assets.
Our Cambridge team provides specialised, local knowledge to help you navigate the city’s unique and exciting commercial property investment opportunities.
