About 7 Ermine Street
7 Ermine Street is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Caxton, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB23 3PQ). It has a recorded floor area of 44 m² (around 475 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. The latest certificate (May 2010) shows an F (score 26), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 41). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from May 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 44 m² it sits well below the postcode median (111 m² across 41 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs). Across 2002–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £346,000 is 15.3% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£632/sq ft) was about 242.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Most recent transfer: April 2021 at £300,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
