Overview

About 16 Ashley Way

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

16 Ashley Way is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Sawston, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB22 3DY). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 975 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 58). The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since September 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2005–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £361,000 sits 66% above the 2009 sale of £217,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£223/sq ft) was about 17.5% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs).
