Overview

About 5 Cherry Close

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

5 Cherry Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Milton, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB24 6BZ). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 570 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. At 53 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 24 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 51–66 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (February 2023) shows a C (score 71). When first surveyed in November 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, lighting went from Good to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.

It hasn't traded since October 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £236,000 sits 73.5% above the 2009 sale of £136,000.
