Haddenham is a charming village set in the beautiful Cambridgeshire countryside. It has a well-regarded primary school and a church dating back to the thirteenth century, together with a post office, small supermarket and pub, all of which are within easy walking distance of Highfield Gate. For more extensive facilities the cathedral town of Ely, about eight miles away, has a wide selection of shops, restaurants, cafés and bars. It is also home to the King's School, a popular independent day school for pupils from 2 to 18 founded over 1,000 years ago and located in an exceptional setting next to Ely Cathedral.

The vast expanses of the Fens provide endless opportunities for walking, cycling and boating on the nearby River Great Ouse, giving families the chance to enjoy a wonderful outdoor lifestyle.

Highfield Gate is very accessible. The A10, which runs close to the village, leads directly to Ely and also to Huntingdon and Cambridge, which are both around 15 miles away. The motorway network is easily reached via the A1(M) and M11. Stansted Airport is around 33 miles away. Frequent rail services from Ely Station connect commuters to Cambridge in around 15 minutes and London King's Cross can be reached in around 70 minutes.

The houses at Highfield Gate are very well designed with a high specification to provide a comfortable modern lifestyle. The two-bedroom terraced houses have an open-plan living/dining area that uses space very effectively. Three and four-bedroom houses offer plenty of room for growing families, with separate living and dining rooms, a generous sized kitchen/breakfast area and, in the four-bedroom houses, an additional room that can be used as a study or separate space for children. The five-bedroom ‘Malvern' is arranged over three levels, giving families even greater flexibility and space. In every home, the master bedroom has fitted wardrobes and an en suite bathroom.

Keith Parrett, Managing Director of David Wilson Homes Eastern Counties, comments: "Highfield Gate offers the popular combination of village living with easy access to major towns. We believe that the high quality of the houses, accessible location and excellent incentives will prove very attractive to families seeking a new home in this area."
