Overview

About 97 New Road

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

97 New Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Sawston, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB22 3BN). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2025. Past consents include an extension and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2016–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £504,000 is 12% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£510/sq ft) was about 133.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold December 2022 for £450,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
