About 27a
27a is a detached house in Waterbeach, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB25 9HT). It has a recorded floor area of 189 m² (around 2034 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows a C (score 74). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 189 m² the property is well over the postcode median (83 m² across 43 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 72% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £558,000 sits 89.2% above the 2007 sale of £295,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£145/sq ft) was about 42.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2012. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
