12 Greens Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Cambridge (CB4 3EF). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2023) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in December 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.

It hasn't traded since February 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. At 101 m² the property is well over the postcode median (72 m² across 39 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1996–2010, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £590,000 sits 78.8% above the 2010 sale of £330,000.

- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 12 Greens Road is modelled from its 101 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CB4 3EF. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 12 Greens Road. 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 12 Greens Road was lodged in July 2023 at band D and is valid until July 2033. 5 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 12 Greens Road. 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 2 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CB4 3EF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 12 Greens Road is in council tax band D. 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.
