Overview

About 13 Petworth Street

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

13 Petworth Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Cambridge (CB1 2LY). It has a recorded floor area of 107 m² (around 1152 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in February 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good and lighting went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since March 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 107 m² the property is well over the postcode median (63 m² across 29 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £567,000 sits 440% above the 1999 sale of £105,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£91/sq ft) was about 74.4% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2019.
