Overview

About 12 Chalk Grove

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

12 Chalk Grove is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Cambridge (CB1 8NT). It has a recorded floor area of 117 m² (around 1259 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows an E (score 45), 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 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory and outbuildings.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £727,000 is 45.4% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£397/sq ft) was about 59.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in February 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
