About 8 Granhams Road
8 Granhams Road is a semi-detached house in Great Shelford, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB22 5LQ). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since November 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 87 m² the property is well over the postcode median (66 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £475,000 sits 408% above the 1996 sale of £93,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£100/sq ft) was about 73.6% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2015.
