Overview

About 2 Antwerp Cottages

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

2 Antwerp Cottages is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cambridge (CB1 3AU). It has a recorded floor area of 38 m² (around 409 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. At 38 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (38–84 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (73 versus a worst of 55). The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a C (score 73). When first surveyed in April 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 38 m² it sits well below the postcode median (80 m² across 4 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 75% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £413,000 is 17.6% above the 2013 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£859/sq ft) was about 415.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 13 years since the last transfer (September 2013). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2017.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 2 Antwerp Cottages is modelled from its 38 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CB1 3AU. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 2 Antwerp Cottages. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 2 Antwerp Cottages was lodged in January 2016 at band C and expired in January 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 2 Antwerp Cottages. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 29 schools and 3 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CB1 3AU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
2 Antwerp Cottages is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
