26 Cambridge Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Solihull (B91 1QE). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1094 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2011) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 68).

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£233/sq ft) was about 17.6% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused.
