Brookside lies within a Conservation Area on the eastern side of Trumpington Road, overlooking private gardens. Reminiscent of a London square, the private gardens are owned and maintained by the Brookside residents and provide a wonderful facility to this unique terrace. The gardens include part of Hobsons Brook (scheduled ancient monument), a watercourse built between 1610-1614 by Thomas Hobson to bring freshwater into the city from springs at Ninewells, a local nature reserve near Great Shelford.

Some of the most highly regarded schools in the city such as The Leys, St Mary's, The Stephen Perse Foundation and St Faith's are all within walking distance. The wonderful University Botanic Garden is within a hundred yards and the property is also conveniently placed for access to the heart of the city centre.

The city has also become an important centre for the "high-tech" and "bio-tech" industries with the University Research and Development Laboratories, Cambridge Science Park and Addenbrooke's Hospital/Biomedical Campus. For the commuter, the nearby M11 provides good access to Stansted Airport, the M25 and London and there is a mainline railway station within about three quarters of a mile providing regular services to King's Cross and Liverpool Street in about 52 minutes and 67 minutes respectively.
