Overview

About 7 Arbury Road

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

7 Arbury Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cambridge (CB4 2JB). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1141 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2012) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 106 m² it's 16.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (91 m² median across 25 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs). Across 1996–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.4% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£504/sq ft) was about 87.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: October 2022 at £575,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2023.
