About 1a
1a is a detached house in Isleham, Ely, Ely (CB7 5RZ). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 112), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £381,000 sits 204.8% above the 1998 sale of £125,000.
