Overview

About 154b

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

154b is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cambridge (CB1 2LW). It has a recorded floor area of 47 m² (around 508 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. Tenure is freehold. At 47 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 21 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 34–221 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 21 units on file. The latest certificate (March 2012) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from March 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £277,000 sits 105.2% above the 2005 sale of £135,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£266/sq ft) was about 29.6% below the postcode norm.
