Overview

About 1 Back Lane

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

1 Back Lane is a four-bedroom detached house in Barrington, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB22 7RF). It has a recorded floor area of 157 m² (around 1692 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2011) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from April 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory, a self-contained annexe and outbuildings. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Untraded for 24 years, with the last transfer in June 2002. Today's modelled estimate of £697,000 sits 236.7% above the 2002 sale of £207,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£122/sq ft) was about 50.1% below the postcode norm. At 157 m² it sits well below the postcode median (313 m² across 5 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2024. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 Back Lane is modelled from its 157 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CB22 7RF. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 1 Back 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 Back Lane was lodged in April 2011 at band D and expired in April 2021, 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. 1 application is matched to 1 Back 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 3 schools and 2 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CB22 7RF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Back Lane is in council tax band A. 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.
