About 13 Gunhild Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
13 Gunhild Close is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Cambridge (CB1 8RD). It has a recorded floor area of 111 m² (around 1200 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a loft. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
Held since April 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 111 m² the property is well over the postcode median (84 m² across 26 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2004–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £489,000 sits 120.3% above the 2009 sale of £222,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£185/sq ft) was about 49.6% below the postcode norm.

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 13 Gunhild Close is modelled from its 111 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CB1 8RD. 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 13 Gunhild Close. 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 13 Gunhild Close was lodged in January 2009 at band D and expired in January 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 13 Gunhild Close. 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 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from CB1 8RD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 13 Gunhild Close is in council tax band C. 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.
