Overview

About Brambles

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

Brambles is a three-bedroom detached house in Cambridge (CB1 7UB). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1950-1966. The latest certificate (August 2012) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

Across 2013–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.2% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£702/sq ft) was about 94.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 84 m² it's 27.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (116 m² median across 39 EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2013. Last sale on file: £635,000 in September 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
