8 Offa Lea, Newton, Cambridge, CB22 7PW

8 Offa Lea is a detached house in Newton, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB22 7PW). It has a recorded floor area of 227 m² (around 2443 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since July 1997, a hold of 29 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 227 m² the property is well over the postcode median (128 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £904,000 sits 416.6% above the 1997 sale of £175,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£72/sq ft) was about 75.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
