Overview

About 1 Mowbray Road

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

1 Mowbray Road is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Cambridge (CB1 7SR). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2019) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump.

Held since August 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £582,000 sits 108.6% above the 2007 sale of £279,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£312/sq ft) was about 29.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2011.
