Overview

About 6 Maltings Close

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

6 Maltings Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Cambridge (CB5 8EB). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band C. At 58 m² this is the 5th smallest of 17 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 46–88 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (February 2020) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (March 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81).

It hasn't traded since June 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £228,000 sits 90% above the 2009 sale of £120,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£192/sq ft) was about 31.1% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs).
