About 2a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2a is a detached house in Cambridge (CB1 7UU). It has a recorded floor area of 26 m² (around 280 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2025 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (October 2025) shows a C (score 71). The rating has held steady at C across 3 certificates since March 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Good to Very Good, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good and window efficiency went from Average to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and main heating dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). Main heating runs on electricity: electricity, unspecified tariff.
It hasn't traded since July 2000, a hold of 26 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £999,000 sits 185.4% above the 2000 sale of £350,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£1,251/sq ft) was about 132.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 26 m² it sits well below the postcode median (47 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2008. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Start your researchHow 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 2a is modelled from its 26 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CB1 7UU. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 2a. 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 2a was lodged in October 2025 at band C and is valid until October 2035. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 2a. 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 25 schools and 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from CB1 7UU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 2a is in council tax band F. 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.
