Overview

About 17 Markby Close

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

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.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 17 Markby Close is modelled from its 118 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CB22 4RS. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 17 Markby Close. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 17 Markby Close was lodged in February 2009 at band D and expired in February 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 17 Markby Close. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 2 schools and 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from CB22 4RS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
17 Markby Close is in council tax band E. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
