About 8 Bamber Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Bamber Street is a semi-detached house in Peterborough (PE1 2HL). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A.

When first surveyed in January 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since.

- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 8 Bamber Street is modelled from its 97 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PE1 2HL. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 8 Bamber Street. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 8 Bamber Street was lodged in November 2014 at band E and expired in November 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.

- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point.

- Council tax band
- 8 Bamber Street is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
