About 40 High Street
40 High Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Babraham, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB22 3AG). It has a recorded floor area of 49 m² (around 524 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2011) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from May 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since February 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. Across 2002–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £319,000 sits 66.1% above the 2007 sale of £192,000. At 49 m² it sits well below the postcode median (130 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 4 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 2 refused.
