Overview

About 5 Gresham Road

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

5 Gresham Road is a semi-detached house in Cambridge (CB1 2EP). It has a recorded floor area of 37 m² (around 398 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. At 37 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (37–408 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 37 m² it sits well below the postcode median (93 m² across 6 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2017.
