Overview

About 5 Farm Road

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

5 Farm Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Papworth Everard, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB23 3QL). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it D (February 2013); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £262,000 sits 54.1% above the 2015 sale of £170,000. Last sold in August 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2022.
