How the estimate is made
The estimate for Arbury View 1f is modelled from its 40 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CB4 2JB. 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.

About Arbury View 1f
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Arbury View 1f is an end-of-terrace house in Cambridge (CB4 2JB). It has a recorded floor area of 40 m² (around 431 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. At 40 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in Arbury View 1f, where floor areas span 38–42 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (June 2019) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since May 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Average to Poor.

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 Arbury View 1f is modelled from its 40 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CB4 2JB. 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. No sale is recorded for Arbury View 1f, which usually means it hasn't changed hands since 1995 or the sale was not for value. 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 Arbury View 1f was lodged in June 2019 at band E and is valid until June 2029. 3 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 Arbury View 1f. 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 23 schools and 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from CB4 2JB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Arbury View 1f is in council tax band B. 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.
