About 48 Duxford Road
48 Duxford Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Whittlesford, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB22 4NQ). It has a recorded floor area of 190 m² (around 2045 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2016) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in November 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good and window efficiency went from Average to Very Good. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
Held since July 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.

On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Across 2003–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £765,000 sits 188.7% above the 2009 sale of £265,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£130/sq ft) was about 55% below the postcode norm. 4 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
