About 119b
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
119b is a semi-detached house in Cambridge (CB1 2AZ). It has a recorded floor area of 46 m² (around 495 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2025) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in December 2010 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 46 m² the property is well over the postcode median (35 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £372,000 sits 90.8% above the 2007 sale of £195,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£394/sq ft) was about 25.6% below the postcode norm.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 119b is modelled from its 46 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CB1 2AZ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 119b. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 119b was lodged in January 2025 at band D and is valid until January 2035. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 119b. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 30 schools and 2 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CB1 2AZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 119b is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
