About 27 High Street
27 High Street is a five-bedroom detached house in Burwell, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB25 0HD). It has a recorded floor area of 270 m² (around 2906 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. Earlier certificates rated it C (October 2011); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since July 2008 — that's 18 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 270 m² the property is well over the postcode median (125 m² across 36 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £644,000 sits 96.9% above the 2008 sale of £327,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£113/sq ft) was about 42.6% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
