Overview

About 8 Berrylands

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

8 Berrylands is a two-bedroom detached house in Cambridge (CB4 1XW). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2023) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since April 2011. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 74 m² this is the 7th smallest of 16 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 69–92 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 16 units on file.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in February 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1999–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £319,000 sits 54.1% above the 2008 sale of £207,000. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs).
