Overview

About 30 Musgrave Way

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

30 Musgrave Way is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Fen Ditton, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB5 8TD). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (August 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 4-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 101 m² the property is well over the postcode median (72 m² across 24 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 1999–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £406,000 sits 67.1% above the 2013 sale of £243,000. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in November 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 30 Musgrave Way is modelled from its 101 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CB5 8TD. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 30 Musgrave Way. 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 30 Musgrave Way was lodged in March 2014 at band F and expired in March 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to 30 Musgrave Way. 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 7 schools and 2 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CB5 8TD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
30 Musgrave Way 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.
