About 16 Waterbeach Road

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

16 Waterbeach Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Landbeach, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB25 9FA). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1399 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2012) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since June 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Average to Good; while 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. The latest certificate is from May 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2010–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at -0.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £552,000 sits 97.1% above the 2012 sale of £280,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£200/sq ft) was about 30.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015.
