About 2 Croft Lane
2 Croft Lane is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Oakington, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB24 3AA). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 742 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since August 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. Today's modelled estimate of £322,000 sits 78.9% above the 2009 sale of £180,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£243/sq ft) was about 17.7% below the postcode norm. At 69 m² it sits well below the postcode median (109 m² across 4 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
