Overview

About 25 Argyle Street

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

25 Argyle Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cambridge (CB1 3LR). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Across 2001–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £539,000 is 28% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£501/sq ft) was about 93% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in April 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2016.

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 25 Argyle Street is modelled from its 78 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CB1 3LR. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 25 Argyle Street. 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 25 Argyle Street was lodged in November 2013 at band E and expired in November 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 25 Argyle Street. 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 2 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CB1 3LR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
25 Argyle Street 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.
