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.
