About 7 Blossom Street

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

7 Blossom Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cambridge (CB1 2NQ). It has a recorded floor area of 93 m² (around 1001 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
