Somerville, George Street, Cambridge, CB4 1AL
About Somerville
Somerville is an end-of-terrace house in Cambridge (CB4 1AL). It has a recorded floor area of 113 m² (around 1219 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 40). The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since May 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 113 m² the property is well over the postcode median (77 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £808,000 sits 97.1% above the 2009 sale of £410,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£336/sq ft) was about 19.6% below the postcode norm.
