9 Waterside, Ely, CB7 4AU
About 9 Waterside
9 Waterside is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Ely (CB7 4AU). It has a recorded floor area of 121 m² (around 1302 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include a conservatory. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
5 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Sold August 2021 for £420,327. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. At 121 m² it's 25.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (96 m² median across 22 EPCs). Across 1996–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.7% per year.
