Ely is a historic cathedral city on the edge of the Fens, dominated by the stunning 'Ship of the Fens' cathedral visible for miles across the flat landscape. With direct trains to Cambridge in 15 minutes and London in 70, the city has become an increasingly popular commuter choice, driving residential development and expanding its commercial property market.
“Cathedral city with strong tourism. Increasingly attractive to Cambridge workers seeking affordability. Premium residential market.”
