About 28 Chesterton Hall Crescent
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
28 Chesterton Hall Crescent is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Cambridge (CB4 1AP). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1249 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 116 m² it sits well below the postcode median (172 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £1,367,000 is 29.3% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£847/sq ft) was about 63.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in February 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 28 Chesterton Hall Crescent is modelled from its 116 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CB4 1AP. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 28 Chesterton Hall Crescent. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
