About 26 Ely Road

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

26 Ely Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Queen Adelaide, Ely, Ely (CB7 4TZ). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2020) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (November 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average.

It hasn't traded since November 2001, a hold of 25 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £291,000 sits 222.1% above the 2001 sale of £90,350. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£98/sq ft) was about 50.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2020.
