Overview

About 15 Great Northern Road

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

15 Great Northern Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cambridge (CB1 2FY). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2012 onwards and council tax band D. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a balcony. At 71 m² this is the 32nd smallest of 62 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 48–96 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (March 2026) shows a C (score 79), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (April 2016); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 72% of similar EPCs). On the market in May 2016 and unlisted since — roughly 10 years.
