Overview

About 1 Bar Lane

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

1 Bar Lane is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Stapleford, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB22 5BJ). It has a recorded floor area of 144 m² (around 1550 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2000–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £857,000 is 47% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£376/sq ft) was about 18.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in January 2015, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.

Method

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 1 Bar Lane is modelled from its 144 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CB22 5BJ. 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 1 Bar Lane. 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 1 Bar Lane was lodged in October 2014 at band D and expired in October 2024, 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. 4 applications are matched to 1 Bar Lane. 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 5 schools and 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from CB22 5BJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Bar Lane 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.
