About 1 Anvil Close

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

1 Anvil Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Stapleford, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB22 5SS). It has a recorded floor area of 114 m² (around 1227 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band E.
