Overview

About 34 Godwin Close

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

34 Godwin Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Cambridge (CB1 8QS). It has a recorded floor area of 93 m² (around 1001 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
