About 16 Ely Road

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

16 Ely Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Prickwillow, Ely, Ely (CB7 4UJ). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2012) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in April 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from November 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot.

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.
