About 23 High Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
23 High Street is a five-bedroom detached house in Barrington, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB22 7QX). It has a recorded floor area of 221 m² (around 2379 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (August 2023) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (May 2018); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 56), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg.
Across 1998–2024, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,228,000 is 10.5% below the 2024 sale of £1,372,500, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£577/sq ft) was about 93% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 221 m² the property is well over the postcode median (133 m² across 29 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, a garage conversion, a porch and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. Most recent transfer: November 2024 at £1,372,500.

Mixed Hedge (Thorn Elm & Ivy) in Conservation Area to front This is a group of primarily Hawthorn and some Elm. Much is covered with Ivy. We discussed restoration by reducing the height of all the Hawthorn and Elm to around 1.5m (this will allow the new growth to form a hedge to top approximately 30cm above the stumps. The Elm will probably die-back but are likely to be replaced with new suckering growth as is common for the species. May also reveal opportunities where some young bare root Hawthorn can be used to gap up the hedge. This work would start at the end of the hedge (drive entrance) and run up to the largest healthy Elm approximately 5-6m from the end of your boundary. We will also remove all the Ivy and treat the stems with a suitable licensed herbicide. We will use the chipped brash from this operation to mulch the hedge and I recommend this is watered to help it on its way.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 23 High Street is modelled from its 221 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CB22 7QX. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 23 High Street. 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 23 High Street was lodged in August 2023 at band F and is valid until August 2033. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to 23 High Street. 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 3 schools and 2 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CB22 7QX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 23 High Street is in council tax band F. 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.
