About 17 Jenyns Close
17 Jenyns Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bottisham, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB25 9DS). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in August 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
At 75 m² the property is well over the postcode median (49 m² across 38 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £398,000 sits 53.1% above the 2013 sale of £260,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£322/sq ft) was about 42.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2013. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in May 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
