Overview

About 295 Chesterton Road

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

295 Chesterton Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Cambridge (CB4 1BH). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since July 2011. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2023. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2011–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £625,000 is 35.9% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£491/sq ft) was about 60.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in June 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 295 Chesterton Road is modelled from its 87 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CB4 1BH. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 295 Chesterton Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 295 Chesterton Road was lodged in March 2015 at band D and expired in March 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 295 Chesterton Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 26 schools and 3 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CB4 1BH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
295 Chesterton Road is in council tax band E. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
