Overview

About 3 Thatchers Wood

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

3 Thatchers Wood is a semi-detached house in Longstanton, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB24 3BX). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1041 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a C (score 72).

Held since January 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. Across 2000–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £321,000 sits 60.5% above the 2009 sale of £200,000. At 97 m² it sits well below the postcode median (158 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: tree works refused in 2018.
