Storeys Way is widely renowned as one of best roads in Cambridge. Named after Edward Storey, a local bookseller who bought and bequeathed the land situated just under a mile from the centre, this quiet leafy road is occupied by some of the grandest and most beautiful, detached homes found in the city. The road runs between Madingley Road and Huntingdon Road past college playing fields. It is conveniently placed for many of the colleges and University departments and is within walking distance of St John’s College and King’s College schools (ages 4-13). Many of the other highly-regarded schools, for all ages, are also easy accessible. For those needing to commute, the railway station (regular services to London) is around 2.5 miles away along with the M11 junction to Addenbrooke’s Hospital, Stansted Airport, M25 and London. The Science Park and Biomedical Campus are close by as well as Madingley Road Park and Ride.
