Overview

About 45 New Road

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

45 New Road is a semi-detached house in Sawston, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB22 3BN). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since March 2013. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £353,000 sits 65% above the 2013 sale of £214,000. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Last sold in June 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 45 New Road is modelled from its 79 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CB22 3BN. 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 45 New Road. 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 45 New Road was lodged in November 2015 at band E and expired in November 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 45 New Road. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 5 schools and 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from CB22 3BN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
45 New Road 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.
