The Fellows House Cambride

TLC

location | Cambridge   year | 2017   value | £14m   size | 12,600m2 

The new development on a prominent site close to the city centre provides much needed serviced apartments for the City’s large population of visiting researchers and academics along with community facilities and 4 townhouses. The ‘aparthotel’ contains a mix of studio, 1 bed and duplex 2 bed apartments along with a restaurant, social hub area, spa, pool and courtyard garden. A deli/cafe opens onto the street and reverts to a wine bar in the evening. A basement car park provides off-street parking for residents of the apartments, the townhouses have dedicated on street parking as well as private gardens and roof terraces.

The scheme responds in a considered and sensitive way to the scale and character of the residential context but retains a high degree of modularity and efficiency. The townhouses address a new ‘street’ that has the possibility to connect in the longer term to proposed adjacent developments.

Art Consultants Elegant Clutter have commissioned an amazing array of new artwork that reflects the Cambridge College Fellow theme and has been carefully curated and arranged throughout the whole hotel including distinctive pieces for each room setting.
