Quantum Fields

Development Overview

Quantum Fields is a new build homes development by Bovis Homes, a division of Vistry Group and a HBF 2025 5 Star Housebuilder, located on Grange Lane in the Cambridgeshire village of Littleport, CB6 1HW. This strategic development offers a collection of modern, energy-efficient two, three, and four-bedroom houses, alongside one-bedroom apartments, catering to first-time buyers, families, and down-sizers. The development has been recognised for its quality, including an NHBC Award in 2024 for the Vistry Group element of the site.

Private sale properties are available, with prices for 3 and 4-bedroom new build homes currently starting from approximately £305,000, though specific plot prices and current availability should be confirmed with the sales team. A selection of homes is also available via Shared Ownership, providing an affordable route to ownership, with 1-bedroom flats like 'The Rudd' available from £41,250 for a 25% share.

Property Details

Quantum Fields offers a variety of house styles, with current show homes including the three-bedroom 'Spruce' and the four-bedroom 'Chestnut,' providing prospective buyers with the opportunity to inspect the design and finish of the properties. The homes are designed to be significantly more energy-efficient than older properties, with an average of 64% cheaper heating costs than an equivalent Victorian property, potentially saving homeowners up to £907 annually on heating bills. All properties come with a standard 10-year build guarantee for added peace of mind. Specific house types offer features such as pre-installed solar panels and upgraded specifications, depending on the individual plot.

Location Benefits and Local Connectivity

The development is situated approximately 1.3 miles from the centre of Littleport and 4.2 miles from the historic cathedral city of Ely. Littleport provides a tranquil rural setting while maintaining excellent transport links. Littleport train station, positioned on the Fen line, offers direct rail services to major commuter hubs, including King’s Lynn (approximately 23 minutes) and Cambridge (with future enhanced connectivity to the upcoming Cambridge South Train Station).

By road, the location offers convenient access to the A10, allowing a direct drive to Cambridge in under an hour, with onward connections to the M11 for London and national road networks. Local amenities within Littleport village include a Co-Op supermarket, convenience stores, a Post Office, takeaway restaurants, and green spaces, all within walking distance of the development.

Families benefit from a selection of local educational facilities. Littleport Community Primary School, which is an Ofsted-rated ‘Good’ school and includes a pre-school on-site, is approximately 0.6 miles away. Secondary education is served by Littleport & East Cambs Academy and the local area special school, Highfield Littleport Academy, is also nearby.

Practical Information

Bovis Homes offers various purchase schemes at Quantum Fields, including Home Exchange, Smooth Move, and Deposit Unlock (enabling a purchase up to £750,000 with a 5% deposit), subject to terms and eligibility. The developer holds a HBF 5-star rating; however, potential buyers are advised to conduct their own due diligence, as historical customer feedback regarding Bovis Homes has noted issues with snagging and aftercare.

Viewing of the show homes is by appointment only. For the most up-to-date pricing, availability of specific plots (such as the 3-bedroom house previously advertised at £280,000), and to arrange a viewing of the Chestnut or Spruce show homes, prospective buyers should contact the Quantum Fields sales team directly.
