Overview

About 9 Birch Trees Road

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

9 Birch Trees Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Great Shelford, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB22 5AW). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in October 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 102 m² the property is well over the postcode median (55 m² across 35 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £616,000 sits 114.6% above the 2008 sale of £287,000.
