About 5 The Poplars

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

5 The Poplars is a four-bedroom detached house in Bluntisham, Huntingdon, Huntingdon (PE28 3XJ). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 913 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2011) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in May 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71).

The home occupies a corner plot.

Across 2011–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 18% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £311,000 is 48.1% above the 2012 sale price.
