Overview

About 8 Bush Close

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

8 Bush Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Comberton, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB23 7EG). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since January 2010. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 1999–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £382,000 sits 52.8% above the 2014 sale of £250,000. Last sold in July 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 77 m² it's 18.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (65 m² median across 44 EPCs).
