About 18 Bar Lane

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

18 Bar Lane is a semi-detached house in Stapleford, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB22 5BJ). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 103), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
