About Hampit House
Hampit House is a detached house in Arkesden, Saffron Walden, Saffron Walden (CB11 4HJ). It has a recorded floor area of 251 m² (around 2705 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (June 2011) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Good to Average. Main heating runs on oil.
