Overview

About 17 Fair Green

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

17 Fair Green is a three-bedroom detached house in Reach, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB25 0JD). It has a recorded floor area of 141 m² (around 1522 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 (October 2011) shows an F (score 29), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 39). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from October 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since August 1998 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £482,000 sits 211% above the 1998 sale of £155,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£102/sq ft) was about 50.5% below the postcode norm. 9 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. At 141 m² it's 26.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (112 m² median across 15 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs).
