Overview

About 1a

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

1a is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Cambridge (CB1 3TG). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 594 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2009) returns a B (score 83), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 55 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 48 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 55–173 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to B, with this unit at the top.

At 55 m² it sits well below the postcode median (85 m² across 47 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Across 2008–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.3% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£480/sq ft) was about 61.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in October 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1a is modelled from its 55 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CB1 3TG. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 1a. 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 1a was lodged in August 2009 at band B and expired in August 2019, 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. None is matched to 1a. 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 23 schools and 2 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CB1 3TG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1a is in council tax band B. 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.
