Overview

About 1 Meridian Drive

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

1 Meridian Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in Lolworth, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB23 8HP). It has a recorded floor area of 191 m² (around 2056 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a C (score 74). When first surveyed in October 2010 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 93), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.

Today's modelled estimate of £733,000 sits 54.3% above the 2012 sale of £475,000. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. 14 years since the last transfer (March 2012).
