About 42 Cambridge Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
42 Cambridge Street is a mid-terrace house in Bradford (BD7 3BX). It has a recorded floor area of 154 m² (around 1658 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 154 m² the property is well over the postcode median (64 m² across 35 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
