About 28 Ash Grove
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
28 Ash Grove is a four-bedroom detached house in Melbourn, Royston, Royston (SG8 6BJ). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £515,000 is 15.7% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£537/sq ft) was about 116% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 77 m² it's 16.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (92 m² median across 15 EPCs). Sold August 2021 for £445,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
