About Baron Cove

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

Baron Cove is a detached house in Burwell, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB25 0BP). It has a recorded floor area of 226 m² (around 2433 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1967-1975. The latest certificate (July 2012) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from July 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £645,000 is 29% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£206/sq ft) was about 536.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £500,000 in April 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
