15a, Gwydir Street, Cambridge, CB1 2LG
About 15a
15a is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cambridge (CB1 2LG). It has a recorded floor area of 59 m² (around 635 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2024) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since May 2014. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in October 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1999–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £443,000 sits 88.5% above the 2007 sale of £235,000. At 59 m² it's 27.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (82 m² median across 54 EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2010.
