8 Bennys Way is a two-bedroom detached house in Coton, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB23 7PS). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 736 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since November 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 68 m² it sits well below the postcode median (114 m² across 5 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £431,000 sits 51.2% above the 2009 sale of £285,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£387/sq ft) was about 82.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
