About 6 Ship Lane
6 Ship Lane is a five-bedroom detached house in Ely (CB7 4BB). It has a recorded floor area of 189 m² (around 2034 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows a C (score 74). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since April 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 189 m² the property is well over the postcode median (69 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count.
