Overview

About 18a

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

18a is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Bottisham, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB25 9DR). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 92 m² the property is well over the postcode median (64 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£399/sq ft) was about 115.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £395,000 in February 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
