Overview

About 18 Macaulay Avenue

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

18 Macaulay Avenue is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Great Shelford, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB22 5AE). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows a C (score 73). When first surveyed in May 2015 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 87). The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since October 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £466,000 sits 55.4% above the 2007 sale of £299,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£362/sq ft) was about 33% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
