A commuter-town launch beside the station
Nexus is a new-build development by Hill Residential — one of the leading housebuilders in London and the South East (Housebuilder of the Year 2018) — on Lytton Way, right by Stevenage station. The scheme is seven blocks; the privately-owned homes for sale are in Blocks 1–3 (267 apartments), a mix of 1, 2 and 3-bedroom homes on a 999-year lease (blocks 4–6 are institutionally rented by Lloyds Living, block 7 is affordable housing). Stevenage sits on the East Coast Main Line, so fast trains reach London King’s Cross in about 23 minutes — a genuine sub-30-minute commuter position at well below London prices.
