Overview

About Ground Floor Flat

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

Ground Floor Flat is an end-of-terrace house in Cambridge (CB1 3AR). It has a recorded floor area of 45 m² (around 484 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (July 2020) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since June 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74).

Across 2005–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £269,000 is 44.6% below the 2016 sale of £485,500, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£1,002/sq ft) was about 230% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 45 m² it sits well below the postcode median (76 m² across 54 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Last sold in May 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.

Where sold prices come from
