About 17 Markby Close
17 Markby Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Duxford, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB22 4RS). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1273 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
Held since August 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. At 118 m² the property is well over the postcode median (46 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1998–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £488,000 sits 95.2% above the 2009 sale of £250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£196/sq ft) was about 36.3% below the postcode norm.
