Overview

About 1 Dudley Road

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

1 Dudley Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Cambridge (CB5 8PJ). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in July 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since January 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £437,000 sits 91.7% above the 2010 sale of £228,000.
