About this property
Ready to ditch the dusty, old-school Cambridge digs and level up your student experience?

Situated on the famously vibrant Mill Road, this student accommodation in Cambridge is a modern haven that perfectly balances a chill, secure living space with a front-row seat to Cambridge’s eclectic energy. Forget everything you've heard about cramped, outdated halls. This is a fresh, stylish, and seriously comfortable place to call home, designed to make your academic and social life a whole lot easier and a whole lot more fun.
The Cam Foundry offers an insane range of room types, so you can pick the one that fits your vibe like a glove. Are you a social butterfly who thrives on living with a crew? The Bronze Shared House, Silver Shared House, Gold Shared House, and Platinum Shared House rooms are your perfect match. You get your own private bedroom and share a communal kitchen and bathroom with your flatmates. It's the ideal setup for making new friends, creating a strong sense of community, and turning strangers into your new university family. For those who want more privacy, the Ensuite rooms offer the best of both worlds—your own private bathroom with a shared kitchen. The Bronze Ensuite, Silver Ensuite, Gold Ensuite Accessible, and Platinum Ensuite give you options based on your needs and budget. For the student who craves total independence and a space that’s all their own, the self-contained studios—from the Bronze Studio to the Silver Studio, Gold Studio, and Gold Studio Accessible—are a no-brainer. You get your own private kitchenette, en-suite, and a dedicated study area, so you can live and study on your own terms. With all-inclusive bills, from high-speed Wi-Fi to your utilities, The Cam Foundry takes the guesswork out of budgeting, letting you focus on acing your exams and making epic memories.

Life at The Cam Foundry is a perfectly balanced mix of work and play. The facilities here are all about making your day-to-day life a breeze. The communal spaces are the social heart of the building. The social space with games stations and the cinema room are the unofficial hubs, places to chill with friends, watch a movie on the big screen, or just have a chat. It’s where you’ll meet new people and find your tribe. When it's time to buckle down and hit the books, the private study areas are a godsend. It's a peaceful, distraction-free space where you can focus on looming deadlines without a single interruption. This is a massive perk during exam season when the university library is packed.
