Overview

About 46 Great Lane

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

46 Great Lane is a three-bedroom detached house in Reach, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB25 0JF). It has a recorded floor area of 113 m² (around 1216 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in May 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average; while main heating dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 97), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 113 m² it's 16.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (136 m² median across 17 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 71% of similar EPCs). Across 2012–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £494,000 is 25.1% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£325/sq ft) was about 24% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in October 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
