About 44 High Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
44 High Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Fen Ditton, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB5 8ST). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 680 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2011) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from May 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory and outbuildings.
At 63 m² it sits well below the postcode median (102 m² across 25 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 1998–2018, sale prices on this property compounded at 7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £391,000 is 12.9% above the 2018 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£510/sq ft) was about 90.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in January 2018, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 44 High Street is modelled from its 63 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CB5 8ST. 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 44 High Street. 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 44 High Street was lodged in May 2011 at band D and expired in May 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 44 High Street. 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 12 schools and 2 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CB5 8ST, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 44 High Street is in council tax band C. 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.
