Overview

About 3 Clare Street

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

3 Clare Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cambridge (CB4 3BY). It has a recorded floor area of 103 m² (around 1109 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in January 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good, lighting went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £806,000 is 46.5% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£496/sq ft) was about 92.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 12 years ago, in September 2014.
