About 4 Comberton Road
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.

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.

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.
