61a, High Street, Over, Cambridge, CB24 5NB
About 61a
61a is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Over, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB24 5NB). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2013) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from February 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since July 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 88 m² it sits well below the postcode median (133 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £316,000 is 47% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£227/sq ft) was about 28.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2022.

Willow (T1) - Fell The main trunk of the tree is rotten and in recent winds a large chuck split away and fell across the garden landing on top of the children's trampoline. This is the second piece that has split away in the last couple of years(first piece was smaller) and as this is a rental property for the safety of my tenants I would like to remove the tree before any more splits and falls.
