About 17 Home Close

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

17 Home Close is a detached house in Histon, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB24 9JL). It has a recorded floor area of 146 m² (around 1576 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in March 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 146 m² the property is well over the postcode median (98 m² across 49 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs). Across 2002–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £627,000 sits 126.4% above the 2009 sale of £277,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£176/sq ft) was about 37.1% below the postcode norm.
