About 17 Greens Road
17 Greens Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cambridge (CB4 3EF). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in September 2014 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2014–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £525,000 is 14.1% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£678/sq ft) was about 73.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £460,000 in March 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
