Overview

About 25 Fen Road

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

25 Fen Road is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Cambridge (CB4 1BS). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2024) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80).

It hasn't traded since August 2008, a hold of 18 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. Across 1998–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £482,000 sits 109.6% above the 2008 sale of £230,000. At 84 m² it's 17.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (102 m² median across 23 EPCs).
