Overview

About 1 Burwell Road

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

1 Burwell Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Reach, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB25 0JH). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2024) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (April 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. Period features are noted in the property record. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 96 m² it sits well below the postcode median (141 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2014–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.3% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£339/sq ft) was about 228% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £350,000 in February 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
