About 1 Catharine Street
1 Catharine Street is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Cambridge (CB1 3AW). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2013) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. 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, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 85 m² it's 18.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (72 m² median across 54 EPCs). Across 1997–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £598,000 is 23.3% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£530/sq ft) was about 61.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: December 2021 at £485,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
