Overview

About 28 Grantchester Rise

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

28 Grantchester Rise is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Burwell, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB25 0BE). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in August 2013 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, main heating went from Very Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 68). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 67 m² this is the 15th smallest of 29 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 33–93 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Sold August 2021 for £156,500. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs). Across 2004–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £183,000 is 16.9% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£217/sq ft) was about 40.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
