Overview

About 4 Comberton Road

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

4 Comberton Road is a detached house in Barton, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB23 7BA). It has a recorded floor area of 254 m² (around 2734 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since July 2012. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 1999–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £2,056,000 is 21.2% below the 2022 sale of £2,610,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£955/sq ft) was about 109.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 254 m² it's 27.6% larger than the typical home in the postcode (199 m² median across 23 EPCs). 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Most recent transfer: November 2022 at £2,610,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
