Overview

About 20 Carrick Close

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

20 Carrick Close is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Cambridge (CB1 8RQ). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since January 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.
