8 Maners Way, Cambridge, CB1 8SL

8 Maners Way is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Cambridge (CB1 8SL). It has a recorded floor area of 19 m² (around 205 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band F. At 19 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (19–187 m²). The latest certificate (February 2014) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £984,000 sits 149.1% above the 2007 sale of £395,000. At 19 m² it sits well below the postcode median (165 m² across 4 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 5 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
