About 3 Petworth Street
3 Petworth Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cambridge (CB1 2LY). It has a recorded floor area of 59 m² (around 635 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2022) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since February 2012. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump.
Held since November 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £441,000 sits 80% above the 2007 sale of £245,000.
