About Cambridge Riverside
Cambridge Riverside, a completed and sold-out flagship development by the renowned Berkeley Homes, established a new benchmark for luxury living in the CB5 8EG postcode of Cambridge, Cambridgeshire. Situated on the banks of the River Cam, directly adjacent to the expansive green space of Midsummer Common, the development successfully merged city-centre convenience with an unparalleled riverside and parkside setting. The Berkeley Group, known for its award-winning homes and commitment to quality, including being named WhatHouse?
Housebuilder of the Year in 2021, ensured the project was delivered to an exacting specification.

Cambridge Riverside offered a collection of high-specification new build homes, ranging from studio, one, two, and three-bedroom apartments and penthouses to ten exclusive four- and five-bedroom townhouses known as Kingsley Walk. Apartments and Penthouses were delivered across various phases, including Newton Court and Darwin House, featuring open-plan living and all benefiting from private external space in the form of a terrace or balcony. Kingsley Walk Townhouses were arranged over four storeys, designed for spacious family living.
